If Vancouver beats LAFC this weekend, RSL beats Colorado (likely), and Houston beats Portland (likely), then the first round of the playoffs will have LAFC playing Vancouver in a best of 3. That would be minimum of 3 games in a row between the two teams and a possibility for a 4th game.
I kind of hate it.
I didn’t check Eastern Conference, but there is also a very very low likelihood of Houston and Portland playing 3-4 games in a row. That requires Seattle, Dallas, and San Jose all losing, LAFC losing, and Houston beating Portland by enough goals.
MLS and my owner (Houston) pissed me off so bad that I stopped watching for a few years. What the hell is this playoff format
The round of three is such a cash grab and so dumb.
don’t sell out the timbers yet buddy! ;)
Hahaha, yeah, I’m hoping for a scenario where Timbers lose by a ton and all the other dominoes fall where both HOU/PDX and LAFC/VAN play 4 games in a row to highlight how damn stupid this new playoff format is. I’m pretty sure that is a possible scenario.
