Stoppage-Time Heroics

Baribo's Late Penalty Rescues D.C. United

Tai Baribo has been D.C. United's standout player this season. The striker has now scored 11 goals in just 14 appearances, according to Airdrie City View. His stoppage-time penalty was the difference between a win and yet another dropped result for D.C. United.

Before Baribo's winner, Andre Dozzell had already converted one penalty for D.C. United. That goal gave the team an early boost, though Toronto refused to go down quietly, NS News reported.
