00:00It is going to be a thrilling finish to the regular season, that is for sure.

00:07To give us a comprehensive look at the teams under pressure and what's at stake in these

00:12crucial matchups, let's go with my compadre, Francisco, que sufre mucho, por favor, what's

00:17going on with these playoffs.

00:19Well, Marcelino, guys, I think this is my favorite segment.

00:22Let's talk about Major League Soccer, Decision Day, it's almost upon us, October 19th, I'll

00:28be on the Colon Rialto Lake against Vancouver, that'll be a very important game.

00:32But I like to focus on what's happened this weekend specifically, in Vancouver actually,

00:36with the Whitecaps facing LAFC.

00:38This is a game that was supposed to happen back in August 24th, but the Black and Gold

00:42had to postpone it due to the run in the US Open Cup, they eventually got to the final

00:47and defeated Kansas City.

00:49So this has a lot of implications, starting with Vancouver.

00:53They didn't look creative, they never could get past the deadlock of Minnesota United,

00:59and they ended up losing valuable points against Minnesota United at home.

01:05So they need to win, if they do, if they get three points, they will leap over one place

01:10and they will try to get out of the wildcard zone.

01:14That will be very important for them.

01:15I don't think any team wants to face Portland in a one matchup game, but at the same time,

01:23if they win, they will very likely face LAFC again.

01:27And talking about the Black and Gold, of course it's really hard for them to catch Galaxy.

01:31They would need to win out, and they would need Galaxy to lose against Houston and lose

01:37by a wide margin against Hector Herrera and the Dynamo.

01:40We'll have more on Liga MX, but for now, let's go back into the studio with Marcelino.
