LAFC Season Pass S02/E18: End Of Regular Season Recap, Seattle Sounders Playoff Preview
The 2020 Major League Soccer campaign is in the books, and Los Angeles Football Club's season-long roller coster is approaching the part that riders stare at nervously while waiting in line. LAFC's 9-5-8 record in 2020 reflects the ups and downs of a turbulent season, but the club qualified of the playoffs and (since Bob Bradley wholeheartedly rejects the underdog moniker) has assumed the role of the team no one wants to play in the postseason.
LAFC won the first two of its final four matches against the Los Angeles Galaxy (2-0) and Houston Dynamo (2-1), but fell to the San Jose Earthquakes (3-2) and drew the Portland Timbers (1-1_ to close out the season. The relative stumble in the final two matches saw LAFC fall to the seventh seed in a tight western conference table, meaning LAFC will travel to Seattle on Tuesday to take on the defending MLS Cup champion Seattle Sounders in a rematch of last year's Western Conference Final. It's the fifth match up in 2020 between the clubs; each team has two victories against the other in the four regular season matches. Unfortunately, positive COVID 19 test results to multiple LAFC players leave the club unexpectedly short-handed coming into Tuesday's match. LAFC have an uphill battle to climb in the first round; the black and gold need all of your support from afar!
Writers at Large Alex Dwyer and Ryan Wallerson, alongside long lost Josh Gross(!!!), have gotten the original band back together. In this postseason preview episode of the Season Pass podcast, we three look at the end of LAFC's regular season, and examine the upcoming playoff match up against the Sounders.
