The draw was done during a live edition of the Men in Blazers podcast at Pioneer Place, amid many MLS All-Star festivities. 


Depending on who ends up in the final, the match will be played either September 16-17 or October 1. If the Fire are victorious against Seattle on August 13, the team will visit the Philadelphia/FC Dallas winner in September. Those two sides play a day earlier at Toyota Stadium in Frisco, Texas.
