The U.S. Open Cup is one of the oldest national soccer competitions in the country, and MLS teams have been dominating since 1996. While an MLS team has won the trophy every year since 2000, non-MLS clubs like the Rochester Rhinos and Sacramento Republic FC have made their mark in the tournament as well.
This year, LAFC won’t be defending their title due to their participation in the Concacaf Champions Cup. Changes in the tournament format for 2025 have given 16 MLS teams entry in the US Open Cup, with priority hosting for half of them and designated away teams for the rest. NYCFC and the Riverhounds are set to battle it out in the Round of 32, each with their eye on US Open Cup glory.
NYCFC, a relatively young team in the MLS, founded in 2013, has yet to secure a US Open Cup win, while teams from New York State hold the record for the most US Open Cup titles. On the other hand, the Riverhounds have consistently made it to the Round of 32 in recent tournaments and have their sights set on going even further this year.
So don’t miss out on this exciting soccer action, and tune in to watch your favorite teams compete in the US Open Cup!
