TORONTO - Goals by Michael Bradley and Jozy Altidore lifted Toronto FC to a 2-1 win over the slumping Montreal Impact in MLS play Saturday, tying a Toronto franchise high with its 11th win of the season.

Altidore has three goals in the last two games, all coming off the bench.

Former Toronto striker Dominic Oduro, who had chances all day, scored a Montreal consolation goal in the 74th minute.

Toronto (11-10-4) has outscored the opposition 7-1 in posting its first back-to-back victories since a three-game win streak ended June 20. That was a dozen games ago.

Toronto also won 11 games in 2014 when it went 11-15-8. It has nine games left -- seven of which are at home -- as its pushes for a first-ever playoff berth.

Montreal (8-11-4) had its chances before a BMO Field sellout of 30,266 but failed to convert as its run of poor form continued, heaping pressure on beleaguered coach Frank Klopas
