Atlanta, Georgia – So, as the 2025 MLS regular season dey prepare to finish am, we don reach Decision Day wey go decide who go make am for playoffs. E be like say predictions wey experts don make, na true wahala. Who go fit sabi wetin go happen for this league wey e no dey follow any rule?
The Philadelphia Union, dem don collect Supporters’ Shield with one game to spare, and we no hear any padi predict say dem go do am. Dem don carry the trophy come house, as dem dey celebrate. (Wetin dem go chop this weekend we no sabi sha.)
Saturday na the grand finale for MLS, with all Eastern Conference matches starting by 6 p.m. ET, while di Western Conference go kick off by 9 p.m. (See im, time wey no go let you sleep!)
As e be, FC Dallas and Real Salt Lake dey fight for di last two playoff spots for di West. Two of dem go match up against the top teams, wey be Vancouver Whitecaps and LAFC. Na dem go display wahala, abi? Dallas dey hold di last spot with 41 points, while Real Salt Lake dey chase am with 40 points. But no go underestimate Colorado and San Jose, dem dey follow closely.
But na Dallas get di biggest wahala, because dem no sabi wetin dem dey do lately. Dem don lack form, and two star players like Petar Musa and Logan Farrington no fit play due to suspension. E mean say dem go need to put on their ‘A’ game to see wetin go happen. (It fit sweet for dem if dem fit win.)
Meanwhile, Lionel Messi dey shine like diamond for dis American league! E don score 26 goals dis season and get 18 assists, making him di highest scorer and assist provider. If e fit carry di MVP award again, e go make history as di first person wey go win am back to back. Na wetin dem dey call “legendary.”
No be only Messi dey vie for accolades o! LAFC winger Denis Bouanga and Nashville SC forward Sam Surridge dey hot on his heels for Golden Boot.
As di clock dey tick, teams like Miami dey try to secure their playoff position. Dem currently dey second in di East, but FC Cincinnati dey hot for area. Who know wetin go happen if Cincinnati win? Miami go need to re-arrange their plans again, no be small matter.
And as if dat one no plenty, we dey say bye-bye to Brad Guzan, Atlanta United goalkeeper. E don announce say dis season go be in last and e go retire. E don spend years for Atlanta since dem start for 2017. (Na real emotional one, as fans dey prepare to give am big send-off.)
With so many players dey retire and plenty drama dey unfold, di Decision Day go get more action than Hollywood movie. You see how e dey set as we dey wait for results to drop? Omo, one thing sure na say every match count. We go dey watch closely as teams dey fight to claim their destiny.
