Major League Soccer Regular Season Results 2020 [Ref: 3]

Report

After two weeks of the regular season, the COVID-19 Coronavirus Pandemic caused the cessation of all sporting activity after 9 March 2020. After a four month layoff, the restrictions were lifted, and Major League Soccer decided to start over in six groups of four, roughly arranged geographically, keeping the Eastern and Western Conferences, with each sub-divided into three groups of four.

The League restarted on 7 July 2020, and teams will play home and away within their own group, before the playoffs.

About

Major League Soccer has been the United States Soccer Federation Officially-recognised Division 1 League since 1996, and is the Top Level in the US Soccer Pyramid and the equivalent of the English Premier League in English Soccer.
