2026 has been the best season in Nashville SC history. The Boys In Gold have been in first place in MLS since May 13.
With a 10-point lead over the Vancouver Whitecaps in the Supporters' Shield race and a 14-point lead over New England Revolution and Inter Miami in the Eastern Conference, Nashville became the first team in MLS to clinch a playoff spot this season, locking down their spot after playing just 26 matches.
