New Mexico United match postponed due to FAA ground stop

TAMPA, Fla. – New Mexico United’s Western Conference Final match against Sacramento Republic FC has been postponed due to the FAA ground stop.

The match will be played Monday at 7 p.m. MT in Albuquerque and will air on ESPN+. It was set for Sunday but travel delays postponed the match.

Sacramento Republic FC was supposed to leave Friday. After multiple flight cancellations Friday and Saturday morning, they took a bus to San Francisco to take an evening flight on Saturday. Then, that flight was also canceled.

Republic FC had to take a charter flight that’ll arrive Sunday evening in Albuquerque.

Any tickets purchased for Sunday are still valid for Monday night’s Western Conference Final. Limited tickets are still available. You can purchase them at SeatGeek.com.

Monday night’s winner will host Eastern Conference champion Louisville City FC in the 2026 USL Championship Final on Saturday, Nov. 21. Kickoff for that will be on the CBS Television Network at TUDN, scheduled for 10 a.m MT.
