Key Fixtures and Results

Check back in for regular updates all night long!

Running it back for the final time tonight, here is the full list of results across all of the action on Wednesday night in MLS.

Thanks for joining us once again!

Portland gets back among the three-point hauls as they hang on to a 2-1 win. They now sit just one point off second in the West going into the weekend.

Just a bit of light banter from the Earthquakes here...

Vancouver and Minnesota cancel each other out in a 0-0 draw at BC Place. A very, very credible point from the Loons against Sørensen's Whitecaps.

This result sees Vancouver fall off their Supporters' Shield perch, with Philadelphia now one point ahead in the overall MLS standings.

Bruce Arena takes all the points against his former employers, with LA Galaxy winless in 16 matches since the start of the season...the worst run in MLS history.

WHAT A WAY TO CAPITALIZE!

Portland now leads 2-1 at home after going up a man thanks to a 76th-minute goal from young Venezuelan striker Kevin Kelsy.

The Timbers have looked dangerous when going direct in the second half, and have brilliantly battled back to take the lead.

It's Kelsy's first-ever goal at Providence Park.

STRAIGHT RED!

Portland is gifted a massive advantage over the remaining 25 minutes after second-half substitute Wayne Frederick receives his marching orders with a studs-up challenge on David Ayala.

ON THE COUNTER!!

Portland Timbers restore parity at Providence Park seconds after Colorado hit the crossbar from point-blank range as Antony bags his fifth goal in five appearances against the Rapids after a scintillating counter-attack.

ARENA'S MEN STRIKE!

LA Galaxy is less than 20 minutes away from yet another defeat in 2025 after San Jose finds a breakthrough in the 74th thanks to a goal from Ousseni Bouda!

The MLS Cup holders are on the verge of the worst run in MLS history.

Coming up on 60-minutes played at BC Place, with Jesper Sørensen's Whitecaps dominant against Minnesota despite having yet to break the deadlock.

ACCESS DENIED!

Earl Edwards Jr comes up with a superb stop to ensure San Jose remains in with a chance to steal points on the night against a struggling LA Galaxy outfit.

OH NO, MORA...

Young goalkeeper Nicholas Defreitas stands tall to deny Portland's Felipe Mora from the penalty spot just minutes after Djordje Mihailovic's match opener!

COLORADO FIND A BREAKTHROUGH IN PORTLAND

A quick counter from the Rapids sees star midfielder Djordje Mihailovic go on a solo run before dispatching his effort beyond Maxime Crepeau.

Top class all around from the US international.

RIGHT OFF THE BENCH!

Austin strikes in the third minute of stoppage time to pull level with RSL thanks to substitute striker Diego Rubio just seconds after Rafael Cabral kept the score at 1-0 with a quick-reaction save, canceling out the key stop from the Salt Lake shot-stopper.

Heading south, the Portland Timbers look to secure three points at Providence Park against the visiting Colorado Rapids, but thus far, frustration has already taken hold in the PNW.

Can the Vancouver Whitecaps add to their impressive run of results at home in 2025 tonight? They'll have to do it against a very tricky Minnesota United.

It's 0-0 after the first 20 minutes at BC Place.

RSL LEAD IN AUSTIN

A delicious delivery from a Deigo Luna free-kick ends on the noggin of William Agada to head RSL to a 1-0 lead with a little over 20 minutes left at Q2 Stadium!

Very quietly, Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting is putting together a fantastic campaign for NYRB.

Is this FC Cincinnati's year? Thus far, 2025 is proving to be another case study on whether or not their story has a bigger chapter on the horizon.

Lionel Messi continues to rack up the accolades for Inter Miami after tonight's brilliant - and much-needed - performance against Montréal.

AT HIS OLD STOMPING GROUND

STOP THAT, MESSI

Not to be outdone with his earlier goal, Messi pulls out all the stops again in stoppage time with a ludicrous close-range chip to complete a brace of his own after a delicious one-two with Luis Suárez makes it 4-1 on the night.

This was the performance they needed.

THE BENZ EXPLODES!!

Atlanta has pulled ahead of Orlando deep into stoppage time after a finish from Jamal Thiaré completes the comeback!

SUÁREZ HAMMERS IT HOME!

Inter Miami takes a 2-0 lead with Lionel Messi turning provider for friend and on-pitch consiglieri Luis Suárez to control and smash past Jonathan Sirois.

It's just his third MLS goal this season, but could he heat up in the second half of the season?

Dallas has left Cincinnati fans stunned just before the 70th minute with an equalizer from Anderson Julio!

Too easy for Dallas on that one, and is Cincy now unexpectedly on the ropes?!
