FANS CHEERING / DREYER STORY: Anders Dreyer scored his fourth goal of the MLS Cup playoffs midway through the second half, helping San Diego FC to a 1-0 victory over visiting Minnesota United in a Western Conference semifinal match on Monday (November 24). Dreyer's 23rd goal in all competitions helped No. 1 seed San Diego become the first expansion side to reach a conference final since Nashville SC reached the last game in the East half of the bracket in 2020. And they would become the first expansion side to reach the MLS Cup final since the 1998 Chicago Fire if they defeat Vancouver in the West final on Saturday, also at home. Pablo Sisniega made three saves for San Diego while deputizing for the injured CJ dos Santos, keeping his second consecutive playoff clean sheet. San Diego finally took the lead in the 72nd minute on an attack that drew out a little extra in terms of passing creativity. Jeppe Tverskov played the ball over the top down the right for Corey Baird, who got to the byline and then executed a clever, back-heeled pass into the space behind him. After having less than a third of the possession in the first half, Minnesota had the game's first clear chances early in the second half. In the 47th minute, Robin Lod cut back against his defender to free himself for a shot past Sisniega, but San Diego defender Ian Pilcher made a sliding clearance off the line to keep it even. Then in the 64th minute, Sisniega took the ball off striker Kelvin Yeboah's feet at close range despite slipping on a surface showing wear from a college football game played there two days before.
