Minneapolis St. Paul, MN, November 7, 2026 —

Minnesota United concluded its 2023 season with a 3-1 victory against the San Jose Earthquakes. The final match of the season took place in Minneapolis-St. Paul on Sunday. Despite securing three points from the home win, the result means Minnesota United will not advance to the MLS Cup playoffs.

The loss did not significantly impact San Jose Earthquakes’ standing, as the team had already secured a top-four spot in their conference heading into the final day of the regular season. The Earthquakes will therefore participate in the postseason tournament.

The match marked the end of the regular season for both clubs. For Minnesota United, the focus now shifts to preparations for the next season, as their playoff aspirations have been definitively ended. The club’s performance throughout the season did not yield a spot in the competitive MLS Cup playoffs.

In contrast, the San Jose Earthquakes can look forward to continued competition in the MLS Cup playoffs. Their performance during the regular season was strong enough to earn them a favorable seeding, placing them among the top four teams in their conference. The exact final seeding for San Jose was determined by results across the league on the final matchday.

Details regarding the specific goal scorers, key plays, or attendance for the match were not provided in the summary. The final scoreline reflects a decisive win for the home side, Minnesota United, in what was their last competitive fixture of the current campaign. The implications of the match primarily concern the immediate future of both teams: Minnesota United’s season concluding, and San Jose’s progression into the playoff rounds.
