Esteban Garcia, who came on as a substitute in the 66', nearly sent the crowd into ecstasy in the 82' as he lobbed the ball over the Canadian defense and hit a right footed shot just wide of the right post.
Antonio Lopez, another of the second half reinforcements, looked to have gotten the right placement on goal in the 89', but Borjan came up with a pivotal save to snuff out the final chance of the night.
