"The MLS season is split between regular-season and post-season, with regular season consisting of a traditional league format before the post-season action sees the break away into the play offs."
"The top nine teams from each league take part in the playoff series through different stages: the wild-card round, round one, conference semifinals, conference finals, and the MLS Cup."
"Each of these rounds, but one, are single-match eliminators with matches drawn based on the performance of each team in the regular season, rewarding better performers with home advantage."
"Wild-card winners face the best-ranked team in Round One while the other six teams play each other using the highest v. lowest matchups, similar to the system used in the Football League play offs."
