Major events

• The Los Angeles Galaxy signed David Beckham from Real Madrid under the new Designated Player Rule, while Club América's Cuauhtémoc Blanco signed for the Chicago Fire. Beckham's first appearance with the team occurred on July 21, in an exhibition against Chelsea F.C.. Blanco's first game with the Fire was on July 22 against Celtic F.C..
• The New York Red Bulls signed two designated players, Juan Pablo Angel from Aston Villa F.C. and Claudio Reyna from Manchester City F.C.. The team had to acquire a second designated player slot from Chivas USA by trading away Amado Guevara. After four games with the team, under the guidance of new head coach Preki, Guevara rejected a trade to Toronto FC and has since been released from the team.
• 2006 MLS Supporters' Shield winners DC United suffered one of their worst starts in team history, losing the season's first three league games after a disappointing elimination from the CONCACAF Champions' Cup in preseason. Conversely, their Atlantic Cup rivals, the New York Red Bulls, were the last undefeated team in MLS.
• Ante Razov of Chivas USA became the third player in league history to score at least 100 goals, behind Real Salt Lake's Jason Kreis and DC United's Jaime Moreno. Razov scored his 100th goal against Real Salt Lake on April 21.
• Jaime Moreno broke the all-time scoring record on August 22, 2007. Moreno scored his 109th league goal on a penalty kick against the New York Red Bulls. The previous holder of the record was Real Salt Lake's Jason Kreis.
• As part of a front office reshuffle, Real Salt Lake fired its head coach, John Ellinger, and replaced him with Jason Kreis. The now-retired striker opened his coaching career with a draw at home against the Red Bulls, despite a two-goal deficit until very late in the game.
• Latest expansion Toronto FC was the last team in MLS this season to score a goal or earn a point. They accomplished both with a 3-1 win over the Chicago Fire, five games into the season.
• Eddie Johnson of the Kansas City Wizards scored back-to-back hat tricks against the New England Revolution and New York Red Bulls, the first time this has ever occurred in MLS.
• Real Salt Lake was the last team in the league to win a game this season. They did not win a game until June when they defeated DC United 2-1, the 12th league game for Salt Lake. No other team in MLS history has gone as long without their first victory.
• On July 15, 2007, Houston Dynamo broke the league shutout record of 681 minutes, a record previously set by the Kansas City Wizards in 2000. Their streak ended on July 22, 2007 after 726 minutes.
• Toronto FC set the record for most consecutive minutes without scoring a goal. They went 824 minutes without scoring a goal in league competition, until a 2-1 loss to the Columbus Crew on September 22. The previous record was held by Real Salt Lake, who went goalless for 557 consecutive minutes in 2005.

Competition format

The format for the 2007 season is as follows:

• Season runs from April 7, 2007 to a championship match played November 18, 2007.
• 13 teams split into two conferences: the Western Conference will have six teams, while the Eastern Conference will have seven, with Toronto FC as the newest addition. Each team plays 30 games, evenly divided among home and away matches. Each team will play every other team twice, home and away, for a total of 24 games. The remaining 6 games will all be intra-conference, with each team playing its fellow conference members an additional game. In the Western Conference, an additional game will be added to the above, highlighting a local rivalry (Los Angeles vs. Chivas USA Honda SuperClasico, Houston vs. Dallas Texas Derby, Salt Lake vs. Colorado Rocky Mountain Cup).
• At season's end, the top two teams of each conference will make the playoffs; in addition, the next four highest point totals, regardless of conference, will also be in the playoffs. In the first round of this knockout tournament, aggregate goals over two matches determine the winners; the Conference Championships are one match each, with the winner of each conference advancing to MLS Cup. In all rounds, draws will be broken with 2 15-minute periods of extra time, followed by penalty kicks if necessary. The away goals rule is not used.
• The team with the best record in the 30 game regular season wins the MLS Supporters' Shield and qualifies for the next CONCACAF Champions' Cup. The MLS Champion also qualifies for the CONCACAF Champions' Cup. If the Supporters' Shield winner wins the MLS Cup, the runner-up to the Supporters Shield is the second qualifier.
• The two MLS teams that qualify for the CONCACAF Champions' Cup have the ability to qualify for Copa Sudamericana if they make the final, and the FIFA Club World Cup if they win the championship. If an MLS team were to win Copa Sudamericana, they would also play in Recopa Sudamericana.
• During the season, MLS teams based in the U.S. may compete in the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup.
• All MLS teams may also compete in select international tournaments, and various exhibitions.
