The Major League Soccer regular season wrapped up Oct. 19 on Decision Day with history being made in the Eastern Conference. Inter Miami, after wrapping up the Supporters' Shield, made history by setting the new single season points record at 74. As well, Lionel Messi became the all-time leading goalscorer in club history.

In the Western Conference, late heroics from Houston Dynamo against LA Galaxy resulted in LAFC finshing with the number one seed. Both Los Angeles teams were level on points, but LAFC pipped its rival to the top seed on goal differential.

Keep an eye out for Smart Choices throughout the week as we celebrate MLS's best.
