Toronto FC midfielder Noble Okello has been fined by the MLS disciplinary committee for “failure to leave the field in a timely manner” after being sent off in the fifth minute of TFC’s 3-1 loss to CF Montreal last Friday.

The 21-year-old Okello, making his ninth career MLS appearance, was initially yellow-carded for a high challenge that caught the right thigh of Montreal’s Victor Wanyama three minutes into the game. The sanction turned into a red card in the fifth minute after video review.

The MLS did not disclose the size of the fine.
