Columbus, OH - Despite the result of MLS Cup 2020, Commissioner Don Garber indicated that Major League Soccer would be awarding MLS Cup to Atlanta United.

“We awarded Atlanta United the cup because they won it in the last 3 years,” stated Garber to The Nutmeg News. "Based on Rule 30324, they get the Cup if they don’t make the playoffs.”

Sources indicate that MLS executives made the call after forecasting that the ratings for the game would not break the Verzuz battle between Ashanti and Keyshia Cole.

“Look, at some point we just need to award it to the club with one of the biggest followings and… well… you know what? Screw it. We don’t have to explain shit. SUCK IT!”
