I think I should finish this tomorrow. JAGUAR 19:25, 28 December 2017 (UTC)

• I feel like the lead should be expanded slightly to summarise the whole article per WP:LEADLENGTH. Some more content could be added here, for example viewing statistics and after-match reactions? I'm also surprised that the exact date of December 9, 2017 isn't mentioned in the lead
• "and was contested by 22 teams in two conferences" - what is a conference referring to here? Try to link this term for unfamiliar readers
• "and Sebastian Giovinco suspended for yellow card accumulation" - why not just say that he got suspended for receiving two yellow cards?
• "Toronto traveled to play Columbus Crew SC, earning a 0–0 draw on the road and a 1–0 win at home" - sounds a tad informal, how about just away?
• I think we can safely get rid of the Ticketing subsection and just merge with the Venue section
• Two paragraphs of the Post-match section begin with "Toronto FC". Also I think it might be better to merge these paragraphs into two if possible, for readability and presentation
• Ref 5 is dead

This article is very well written and solid overall—I couldn't find any glaring issues here. The sources all check out fine too. Once the minor issues above are clarified then this should be good to go. JAGUAR 14:16, 29 December 2017 (UTC)
