Spain's Alejandro Pozuelo opened the scoring from the penalty spot in the sixth minute. After Austin's Maxi Urruti tied it in the 32nd, Perruzza gave Toronto the lead by knocking home a low cross.
The 21-year-old Perruzza also scored in Toronto's 5-4 win over the Los Angeles Galaxy and 2-1 loss to Los Angeles FC.
