U.S. Open Cup Fourth Round Review: Golazos, Lightning, And Attendance Records<\/h2>\n

This round of the USOC is always one of the most entertaining. The last of the amateur teams are taking on the big boys. The NASL and USL teams almost all get to play MLS teams. This round featured a bit of everything, other than a PK shootout. Here’s the highlights from the U.S. Open Cup fourth round:<\/p>\n

David Upsetting Goliath:<\/h3>\n

This week featured 13 non-MLS teams, all of whom had MLS opponents. Unfortunately for the neutral fan, this round didn’t feature as many shocking upsets. Amateur side Christos FC took a 1-0 lead<\/a> on D.C. United before being blown out 4-1<\/a>. They were the last survivor of the non MLS, NASL, or USL teams. FC Cincinnati got a huge 1-0 win<\/a> over in-state rival Columbus Crew SC in the first ever #HellIsReal Derby<\/a>.<\/p>\n
