MLS Cup team news: Osorio in, Johnson out for Toronto FC image

Toronto FC coach Greg Vanney has given Jonathan Osorio the start over veteran Will Johnson in midfield for the MLS Cup final.

Osorio returns to the lineup after starting TFC's first four playoff matches, though Johnson got the nod for the Eastern Conference semifinal second leg against the Montreal Impact.

The Seattle Sounders, meanwhile, have Osvaldo Alonso and Erik Friberg in the lineup, despite lingering injuries that left their participation in question.

Here are the lineups in full:

Toronto FC: Irwin; Zavaleta, Moor, Hagglund; Beitashour, Cooper, Bradley, Osorio, Morrow; Giovinco, Altidore

Subs: Bono, Williams, Bloom, Cheyrou, Johnson, Endoh, Ricketts

Seattle Sounders: Frei; Mears, Torres, Marshall, Jones; Alonso, Roldan; Lodeiro, Friberg, Morris; Valdez

Subs: Miller, Scott, Fisher, Evans, Ivanschitz, Fernandez, Gomez
