The MLS Cup Playoffs are officially underway and the first day of action featured no shortage of drama. FC Cincinnati came from behind to upset the New York Red Bulls 2-1 thanks to a cool finish from Brandon Vazquez while Julián Araujo was the hero for the LA Galaxy as they beat Nashville SC 1-0.
It comes as no surprise but Real Madrid, for the 31st time in 31 editions of the competition, has reached the Champions League Round of 16 with two matches still to play.
Group F looked decidedly simple for Real alongside RB Leipzig, Celtic and Shakhtar Donetsk, but Shakhtar almost handed los Blancos their first defeat of the campaign Tuesday after Oleksandr Zubkov had given the "home" side a 46th-minute advantage in Warsaw, Poland.
It's only Decision Day but the MLS Cup Playoffs have started in mind, body and spirit with the Eastern Conference picture now clear.

México jugó su último partido en suelo norteamericano antes del Mundial de Catar y la derrota 3-2 ante Colombia fue un perfecto resumen de la era de Gerardo Martino al mando del Tri: un inicio rampante, con un frondoso juego ofensivo, pero con un cierre espantoso, lleno de dudas y sin ideas.

La conquista de Viñas cayó literalmente en el último suspiro del encuentro y cuando las esperanzas de la nación americanista eran básicamente cenizas.
