Bunbury, the son of former Canadian international Alex Bunbury, added an insurance goal in the 91st minute with an easy tap-in after Toronto was caught short on a counterattack. Bunbury, who was born in Hamilton but grew up in the U.S. and has won four caps for the U.S., had come into the game three minutes earlier.

Toronto went into mid-week play in fourth place in the Eastern Conference after the weekend 3-2 loss to NYCFC that ended a five-game winning streak in all competitions. Nashville , which stood 13th in the East, was coming off a 1-0 defeat at Charlotte FC and had won just once in its previous seven outings .

TFC's starting 11 featured six changes from Saturday's lineup with wingback Raoul Petretta serving as skipper. Aime Mabika and Kosi Thompson made their first league starts of the season. Toronto had a half-chance in the 35th minute when Spicer headed Alonso Coello's cross in front of goal. But U.S. international defender Zimmerman did enough to block an onrushing Sigurd Rosted from getting to the ball.
