As the final match of the MLS regular season approaches, head coach Jesse Marsch is encouraging his team to treat Sunday’s match against D.C. United as a playoff game.
“We need to continue to have a playoff-type mentality,” Marsch said. “I’m really happy with the last two games specifically because I think our urgency and our concentration for what big games are like has been really good and we can have no lapses right now.”
D.C. United did not qualify for the Audi 2017 MLS Cup Playoffs this season, and faces their final match of the year against the Red Bulls.
