I know replay angles can be deceiving, but I'm not sure how this isn't offside? Guess it wasn't clear and obvious.

Nice finish by Russell-Rowe either way for Columbus.

Cincy IMMEDIATELY equalized.

1-1 with 23 minutes left 🍿

Real Salt Lake announces roster update. Biggest news to me? Willy Agada's contract expires and is eligible for free agency.

If Agada chooses to stay in MLS, I think he'll have plenty of options.

The LA Galaxy's contract updates is a lot of continuity — 25 players under contract, 2 in negotiations. Shows belief that 2025 was an aberration, which I'd agree with.

Club in talks w/ Diego Fagundez about return + Botafogo for Nascimento

The Eastern Conference playoff picture is settled. It's an absolute buzzsaw.

Orlando is a 9th seed and going on the road in a wild card game on 53 points. Last season, that point total would have been a 4th seed. Wild.

An incredible Decision Day race I didn't notice until reminded by Vikas in the @soccerwisehq.bsky.social discord:

D.C. United (29 total team goals in 33 matches) vs. Lionel Messi (26 individual goals in 27).

Coming down to the wire, folks. Messi has outside chance of chasing down D.C. United
