Statistics of North American Soccer League in season 1974. This was the 7th season of the NASL.
Fifteen teams comprised the league with the Los Angeles Aztecs winning the championship in a penalty kick shootout over the Miami Toros.
The league decided to do away with tie games. If a match was tied after 90 minutes, the teams would go directly to a standard penalty kick shootout and the outcome would appear in the standings as a 'tie-win'. The tie-winner would gain three points, plus goals in regulation, while the loser of the tie-breaker received no points, except for regulation goals. Including the 1974 NASL Final, 33 games were decided using this method.
W = Wins, L = Losses, T= PK Shootout Wins, GF = Goals For, GA = Goals Against, PT= point system
