How does it work?
Home-away-home format:
- Match 1: higher seed hosts
- Match 2: lower seed hosts
- Match 3 (if necessary): higher seed hosts
Win-only: Every Round One match will have a winner; no ties, no aggregate score.
PK shootout: No extra time will be played if a match is tied after regulation time (90 minutes). Teams will participate in kicks from the penalty spot to determine the winner.
Best-of-3: The first team to win two matches will advance. Conversely, the loser's playoff journey will end.
What's Next?
The winner of each Round One Best-of-3 series advances to the Conference Semifinals, which will be held November 23-24.
If a Conference Semifinal game is tied after regulation time (90 minutes), two 15-minute extra time periods will be played in their entirety. If the score is still tied after two extra time periods, a winner will be determined via a penalty kick shootout.
