HARRISON, N.J. (October 29, 2015) – Last night marked the beginning of the Audi 2015 MLS Cup Playoffs with the fourth-seed D.C. United overcoming an early deficit to defeat New England Revolution, 2-1.
For the Red Bulls, this means that their opponent in the Eastern Conference semifinals will be either D.C. United or Toronto FC.
If the Montreal Impact eliminate Toronto FC tonight, New York’s opponent in the semifinals will be D.C. United. However, if Toronto FC, the lowest seeded team in the conference, defeat Montreal, the Red Bulls will face Toronto and Columbus Crew SC will take on United. RBNY cannot face Montreal in the semifinals, who are the highest seeded team in the Eastern Conference Knockout Round.
The Red Bulls will play the first-leg of the Eastern Conference semifinals on the road on Sunday, Nov. 1 (TV: FS1 or ESPN). Afterwards, Red Bull Arena will host the second-leg the following weekend on Sunday, Nov. 8 (TV: FS1 or ESPN).
