San Diego beat Minnesota to set up MLS West final with Vancouver

Los Angeles (United States) (AFP) – Anders Dreyer’s goal in the 72nd minute gave top seed San Diego FC a 1-0 home victory over Minnesota United on Monday to advance in the Major League Soccer playoffs. The 27-year-old Danish international winger blasted in left-footed into the top corner for the winner.

San Diego now get a host berth in Saturday’s Western Conference final against the second-seeded Vancouver Whitecaps. The winner will face the Eastern Conference champion — either Lionel Messi’s Inter Miami or New York City FC — in the MLS Cup final on December 6.
