To reach the Western Conference Semifinal, the No. 6 Loons swept and advanced past No. 3 Real Salt Lake in the Round One, Best-of-3 Series. During Game 1 in Utah, both teams played to a scoreless 0-0 draw, where Minnesota won 5-4 via penalty kicks. Then in Game 2 in Saint Paul, the Loons and RSL yet again played to a 1-1 draw, but MNUFC prevailed and also won the penalty kick shootout 3-1.

Of note, Conference Semifinals, Conference Finals, and MLS Cup presented by Audi will continue to be single elimination, win-or-go-home matches hosted by the team with the better regular season record.

In the two previous regular-season matchups with LA Galaxy in 2024, Minnesota United first played to a 2-2 draw at Allianz Field in May on the backs of goals scored by Bongokuhle Hlongwane and former Loon Kervin Arriaga. Then on the road in California in July, MNUFC narrowly lost 2-1, where Teemu Pukki scored the Loons' lone goal, while Galaxy's Gabriel Pec recorded a brace.
