FC Dallas have secured their spot in the Audi 2026 MLS Cup Playoffs after a 1-0 victory over Seattle Sounders FC on Wednesday. The team currently stands third in the Western Conference with 50 points, achieved through 14 wins, 7 losses, and 8 draws. With five regular-season matches remaining, Dallas will compete in the playoffs beginning November 18.
The team has made the playoffs in two consecutive years under head coach Eric Quill, but narrowly missed the MLS Cup in 2010. Star player Petar Musa, a Croatian international striker, leads the Golden Boot race with 19 goals in 25 MLS games this season, also scoring against England at the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Musa has formed a strong partnership with Logan Farrington (10g/5a), while winger Joaquín Valiente, a winter signing, has 13 assists.
The defense is bolstered by Osaze Urhoghide and MLS veteran Lalas Abubakar, with midfielder Kaick Ferreira providing midfield control. The Audi 2026 MLS Cup Playoffs will take place starting December 18, with the Round One Best-of-3 Series set to commence.
