Red Bulls to Face LA Galaxy in MLS Cup Final

The New York Red Bulls advanced to the MLS Cup final after defeating Orlando City SC 1-0 in the Eastern Conference Final, marking their first appearance since 2008. Andres Reyes' 47th-minute header secured the victory, supported by crucial saves from goalkeeper Carlos Coronel. The Red Bulls became the first No. 7 seed in league history to reach the MLS Cup Final, having upset higher-ranked teams including defending champions Columbus Crew and NYCFC. They will face the LA Galaxy, who defeated the Seattle Sounders 1-0 in the Western Conference Final, thanks to a late goal by Dejan Joveljic. The Galaxy are pursuing their sixth title, while the Red Bulls seek their first. The MLS Cup final is scheduled for December 7 at Dignity Health Sports Park in California.
