For those who think the MLS Cup playoffs are too brief, the four teams involved in this weekend’s semifinals (along with Southern California Edison) did their best to draw them out as long as possible.
A few hours after the Los Angeles Galaxy outlasted Houston in an epic overtime game that felt like a best-of-7 series thanks to two blackouts, Real Salt Lake eliminated the Chicago Fire on Saturday night in a sudden-death penalty shootout that followed a 0-0 tie. RSL became the third eighth seed to advance to the title game and will meet the Galaxy next Sunday in Seattle in one of the unlikeliest championship pairings in the league’s 14-year history.
