FEATURE: Answering your Decision Day questions
When the San Jose Earthquakes defeated Los Angeles Football Club on Wednesday night, they punched their ticket to the postseason for the first time in three years.
The Quakes have had a rocky history with Decision Day, falling just short of the playoffs in 2013, 2015, and 2019. The one exception, 2017, came down to the wire with a stoppage-time winner by Marco Ureña sending San Jose through.
In 2020, the Earthquakes earned a playoff spot prior to Decision Day for the first time since the magical Supporters’ Shield run of 2012. While it takes some of the drama away from the season finale, not that anyone will mind, there is still something to play for on Sunday.
