Somehow, the incredibly slim playoff hopes of Sporting Kansas City are still alive. They won by a resounding three goals to nil hosting D.C. United on Tuesday and then all the correct results played out on Wednesday. Real Salt Lake were stomped by Austin FC and the LA Galaxy lost badly to the Vancouver Whitecaps.
As a quick reminder on the playoff math, Sporting KC need to run the table winning all remaining three games, RSL need to lose out, the LA Galaxy need to lose out except when they play RSL and they need to win.
