Sporting Kansas City came from a goal down to defeat Toronto FC 2-1 in their Major League Soccer game at the Livestrong Sporting Park on Saturday.

Toronto went ahead a minute before the half-time interval when Richard Eckersley found Ryan Johnson unmarked on the left side just outside the hosts' penalty area, and the 27-year-old subsequently found the target with a low shot.

Johnson almost scored his second goal of the game in the opening minutes of the second half in Kansas when he attempted a shot from just outside the Sporting 18-yard box, but saw it bounce off the right post.

The home side then restored parity in the 61st minute when Paulo Nagamura scored with a fierce shot.

Sporting completed their comeback with just two minutes of normal time left on the clock, as Oriol Rosell turned in Chance Myers's cross from close range.
