The games are back to determine who will play in the final game for all the bragging rights. We begin with...
FC Dallas welcoming the Portland Timbers. Adam Larsen Kwarasey and Jesse Gonzalez are the strong keepers. Portland opened in the fifty-fourth minute with a Fanendo Adi goal, courtesy of Diego Valeri and Dairon Asprilla. Dallas tied it on a sixty-eighth minute goal from Ryan Hollingshead, passed from Mauro Diaz. In the seventy-second minute, Diego Chara was given a yellow card for a foul for the Timbers. Dallas took the lead on a Blas Perez goal in the seventy-third minute, set up by Diaz. Kellyn Acosta of Dallas took a yellow card for an eightieth minute foul. In stoppage time, Lucas Melano scored for Portland with the help of Valeri. The final was 2-2, but the Timbers advance to the MLS Cup on a 5-3 aggregate victory, with this game's man of the match being Valeri.
In the east, the New York Red Bulls bring in the Columbus Crew SC. Steve Clark and Luis Robles are the gloved men. New York had a yellow card for Felipe in the twenty-eighth minute for a foul. Columbus' Gaston Sauro took a yellow card for a foul in the sixty-seventh minute. The Red Bulls saw a yellow card given to Sal Zizzo in the eighty-fifth minute for his foul. New York got going with a stoppage time goal from Anatole Bertrand Abang, set up by Lloyd Sam. This gave them a 1-0 win, and Robles' five-save clean sheet made him the man of the match. The Crew, however, moved on with a 2-1 aggregate victory, to face Portland in the MLS Cup.
