The playoff scenario above is not correct. If LA defeats both NY and Chicago, the Galaxy will qualify regardless of what KC and Colorado do. They need help from KC and Colorado only if they get 4 points from their last two games.
I believe you are right and have changed that. Thanks pj100, I didn’t look it over carefully enough.
