The game delivered a 0.3 HH US rating and was watched by an average audience size of 573,000 people.
The 573k number is an improvement against the other MLS semi-final second leg played over the weekend, for the New England Revolution against New York Red Bulls game on NBCSN, which was viewed by 267,490 people.
