Major League Soccer has had an ever-growing increase in viewership over the last half-decade, with the quality of the league on the rise. After years of lagging behind other sports in the United States, soccer at the highest level has finally started catching up and taking over. In 2022, over 10 million people attended MLS games in stadiums all across the United States and Canada.
