Goalkeeper Jayden Hibbert made two saves in his second career MLS start, as Atlanta United tied visiting Toronto FC 0-0 on Sunday.

Sean Johnson made one save for Toronto (5-13-9, 24 points), which posted its third straight draw and saw its winless stretch extended to five straight games. Toronto hasn't won a match since July 16 against San Diego FC.

Atlanta (4-12-11, 23 points) mustered just one shot on target and was outshot 12-6 in the tie. Atlanta picked up points by way of a draw for the third time in four games, but hasn't posted a victory in 11 outings, last beating Orlando City 3-2 on May 28.

Hibbert, 21, started in place of veteran Brad Guzan, who had allowed 11 goals in the last five games. Hibbert's only other MLS start came on July 12 in a 1-1 tie against Toronto.

Atlanta's first shot on goal came in the 57th minute, as Miguel Almiron's left-footed attempt from the center of the box was saved by Johnson. Toronto then had a flurry of chances, including Theo Corbeanu's two shots that were blocked by Enea Mihaj and Pedro Amador in the 58th minute.

In a scoreless first half, it wasn't until the 33rd minute that the game saw its first shot on goal, as Toronto's Maxime Dominguez took a left-footed shot from outside the box that was saved by Hibbert. Each side totaled five shots before halftime, but just the one on goal.

Atlanta United racked up 17 fouls to Toronto FC's nine and were issued three yellow cards, all in the second half.

Atlanta will look to snap its winless skid next Saturday at Nashville SC, while Toronto returns home to host CF Montreal.
