COLUMBUS (AP) — Artur scored in the 59th minute and the Columbus Crew SC advanced to the MLS Cup championship with a 1-0 victory over the New England Revolution in the Eastern Conference final on Sunday.
The third-seeded Crew will host the winner of Monday night’s Western Conference final between the defending champion Seattle Sounders and Minnesota United at Mapfre Stadium on Dec. 12 (8:00 p.m./FOX).
Columbus defeated upstart Nashville with two goals during extra time last Sunday to advance to the conference finals while the team struggled with positive coronavirus cases.
