The MLS regular season is entering its final month, and several teams are close to clinching their spots in the Audi 2016 MLS Cup Playoffs.


It also means that we've reached the proverbial "Last Chance Saloon" for others whose postseason hopes are flickering. Thanks to a 1-0 loss to Montreal on Sunday afternoon, Orlando City became the second team, along with the Chicago Fire, eliminated from playoff contention. And the Vancouver Whitecaps joined them a few hours later via their 2-1 home loss to Seattle at BC Place.


Here's a rundown of the clinching scenarios across the league this weekend.


QUALIFIED FOR MLS CUP PLAYOFFS
Colorado Rapids, FC Dallas, LA Galaxy, New York City FC, New York Red Bulls, Toronto FC


ELIMINATED
Chicago Fire, Orlando City SC, Vancouver Whitecaps
