The 2020 MLS Cup Final is set. The Columbus Crew will host the defending MLS Cup champion Seattle Sounders on Saturday night at MAPFRE Stadium for the title. The Sounders won the team’s fourth Western Conference title in five seasons Monday night with an unbelievable come-from-behind 3-2 victory against Minnesota United. Seattle scored in the 89th minute to equalize and in stoppage time to win the conference. The Crew took the Eastern Conference crown Sunday afternoon after a 1-0 victory against the New England Revolution.
This match is a full-circle moment for the Crew, the Sounders and Major League Soccer in what has been the most chaotic season in MLS history coupled with the most chaotic year in most people’s lifetimes.
