Major League Soccer's playoffs have a new twist this season: the opening round will be a best-of-three series.
As a result, there's the possibility of 24 first-round playoff games."I think it's an interesting new model that they've come up with, I don't know what the reasoning is behind it,"said."It's similar to a lot of the other sports in American culture, baseball, basketball, hockey, where they have these multi-games series. Hopefully it brings more eyes to the league, more attention."I don't understand," Vela said.
The games will start Saturday and go until Nov. 12. The conference semifinals are set for Nov. 25-26, with the conference finals played Dec. 2-3. The MLS Cup final will take place on Dec. 9, played at the home of the team that collected more points in the regular season.Cincinnati won the Supporters' Shield for best regular-season performance with 69 points. The team finished in last place for three straight seasons after joining MLS as an expansion team in 2019.
"It should feel like more pressure. You've won a trophy already and so people, teams will look at that and say, the expectation is to go and do it again. That's our expectation in our pursuit of winning another trophy. So it should feel a little different," Noonan said."That's OK. These guys have stepped up all year."St.
