MLS Supporters,
Last Thursday, we launched our new League website—MLSsoccer.com. Following the launch and over the weekend, we have experienced a number of technology issues that significantly affected the performance of the site. We apologize for the impact these problems are having on our fans, and we are working quickly to correct them.
The most significant issue concerns the integration of live data across the site. Specifically, the site is designed to automatically access and integrate a live data feed and this function is not working properly. As a result, many important areas in the site, including the scoreboard, the schedule, player information, stats and the standings, are not working properly. In summary, issues in each of these areas are manifestations of a single, but important, technical problem.
Our team is working hard to resolve all of the outstanding issues as quickly as possible, and we anticipate that this problem will be fixed for the most part before the games on Thursday.
MLS fans deserve an exceptional website and we remain committed to delivering that experience.
Many of you have sent me feedback. Please continue to do so. I can be reached at Chris@MLSSOCCER.COM.

Director, Digital Strategy
