The MLS Cup Conference Finals are upon us as we’ll have new champions in the east and west before the next weekend’s showdown in the final.

Here is what has gone down so far.


Orlando City 0-1 New York Red Bulls

Scorers: Reyes 47′

The New York Red Bulls stormed into Orlando and snatched a narrow upset victory to book their passage to MLS Cup Final.

The visitors were in the drivers seat in the first-half, despite a raucous crowd cheering on Óscar Pareja’s men.

But it took until after the break for the deadlock to be broken when a superb free-kick delivery from John Tolkin made its way into the back of the net via the head of Andrés Reyes.

While Orlando poured men forward in the dying minutes to salvage their season, the visitors held on thanks to a heroic effort from their rearguard to book their passage to the final in dramatic fashion.

The Red Bulls now await the winner of the Seattle Sounders and the Los Angeles Galaxy.


Still to come
