MLS attendances up

Major League Soccer attendances are up by 16 per cent so far this season, although this in part reflects the addition of new franchises and the opening of new stadiums.

No games have attracted crowds smaller than 10,000 and 68 per cent have had attendances of over 18,000, a figure comparable with one of the better supported Championship sides.
