CORY BURKE

Los Angeles FC beat the Philadelphia Union to claim its first MLS Cup championship.

Philadelphia sports fans came up empty the last time two teams from the City of Brotherly Love competed for a title at the same time.

The snowy victory for Kansas City was part of a wild final day in the Western Conference, with late goals in Los Angeles and Houston shuffling the playoff bracket. LAFC's reward is a trip to defending MLS Cup champion Seattle in a rematch of last year's Western Conference final won by the Sounders on the road. Only Philadelphia and Toronto had a chance to lay claim to the regular-season title entering the final day of the season. The Eastern Conference had a logjam at the bottom of the standings, and the final day ended with both expansion teams claiming playoff spots.
