With 10 matches taking place in the span of four hours, supporters will have their hands full keeping up with all the action on the first-ever #DecisionDay in MLS history.
That’s where Twitter comes in.
MLS has partnered with the social media giants to deliver a unique experience to supporters on Sunday, October 25 and in the week leading up to the regular season finales.
Social media staffers will be present at every MLS stadium to help bring the atmosphere and behind the scenes to Twitter’s platforms. In addition, all 20 clubs will be armed with Twitter mirrors, there will be plenty of live Periscopes on the day, and of course, video of all the goals and drama of the day will be showcased on Vine.
And when it’s all done fans will be able to celebrate their Audi 2015 MLS Cup playoffs berth on Sunday with a custom-designed playoff t-shirt available exclusively for purchase within a tweet.
"There a bunch of content initiatives we’re doing at venues,” Twitter’s head of North American sports partnerships, Danny Keens told SI.com. "For fans, we’re able to drop them into multiple MLS Decision Day games at once. So fans can connect with all the action that’s taking place on the day and bring them closer to the action than ever before, with Twitter being the center of that universe.”
There’s an added bonus for supporters: the tweeter with the most original photo or video that captures the drama of #DecisionDay can win a trip to the 2015 MLS Cup.
