Written by CBS SPORTS ALL RIGHTS RESERVED on November 25, 2024
After a wild final day of the season that saw Los Angeles FC secure the top seed in the Western Conference and Inter Miami set the single season points record, and a wildcard round which saw Atlanta and Vancouver advance, the MLS Cup playoffs are truly underway. The top seeds in both conferences have fallen and upsets have ruled during the playoffs so far.
Atlanta United were among the biggest surprises taking out Inter Miami in shocking fashion but the Seattle Sounders also pulled an impressive upset taking out Los Angeles FC. Parity is alive in well in MLS as the Conference final matches are almost set. Check out the results of the playoff matches so far:
