MLS Playoffs Tickets

The road through the MLS Playoffs is one of the toughest postseasons in professional sports. The top prize in American soccer will put extra pressure on strikers and goaltenders alike. With a chance to reach the MLS Cup possibly resting on a penalty kick or a last-minute cross-the-field shot, the MLS Playoffs keep fans breathless on every last second of play. With the need for the clutch never being higher, the heat is on in the MLS Playoffs.

Though the concept of a two-legged match may be foreign to American audiences, the MLS Playoffs Conference Semifinals are decided in just this way. Allowing each team to play a home game for the Conference Semifinals, the MLS Playoffs differ from other multi-game series by taking the aggregate score of both games to determine the winner. The team with the most points combined from the two days is the winner. A unique points system, the two-legged match only occurs in the Conference Semifinals of the MLS Playoffs.

The remainder of the MLS Cup Playoffs are played in single-elimination format. The change from the two-legged match means that every play counts and every point and penalty brings a club closer to the MLS Cup. As the MLS Cup Playoffs continue the records of the regular season mean nothing and many winners of the Supporters Shield fade away before every reaching the MLS Cup.

The MLS Playoffs are the peak of American soccer but are quickly catching on as a favorite series of sport for the entire world. The Houston Dynamo will attempt to keep their dynasty alive while MLS Playoff masters like the New England Revolution will try and finally take the prize.
