2019 US Open Cup

The teams in the Second Round of the 2019 Lamar Hunt US Open Cup now know who they could play in Round 3.

The United States Soccer Federation announced the potential pairings for the Third Round of the 106th edition of the tournament that will take place May 29. In Round 3, 22 winners of Round 2 will pair off in 11 matches.

The hosts for the First Round, and all future rounds, are determined by random selection. If both teams apply to host and both teams meet the federation’s minimum venue standards, then the home team is decided by random draw.

The winners from Round 3 will advance to the Fourth Round which is scheduled to be played June 12. Major League Soccer teams will join the tournament in Round 4.

All games will be broadcast live on ESPN+ as part of the tournament’s new media rights agreement.

In the opening round, USL League One teams joined all of the Open Division teams to kick off the 106th edition of the Lamar Hunt US Open Cup. A few Open Division teams got to take on professional teams from USL League One, but in Round 2, it gets a little more difficult. Every U.S.-based team from the USL Championship (Div. 2 pro) joins the competition so every game features a team from the second division pro league in the United States.

There are nine games on the schedule for Tuesday (May 14), and 13 more on Wednesday and every game will be broadcast live on ESPN+.

Since 2003, fans who wanted to follow the opening round of the second-oldest, continually-operating soccer tournament in the world, would have to rely on updates from this site, or, in later years, the occasional live audio or video stream. Now, fans who are unable to attend a match in person, can watch every game from the comfort of their home, or through their favorite mobile device.

The draw for the Third Round of the competition is expected to take place today as teams will learn who they will face next if they are able to survive Round 2.

Below is a preview of all nine of Tuesday’s Second Round games (a preview of Wednesday’s 13 matchups will be posted on Wednesday morning)

Dayton Dutch Lions (USL-2) at Pittsburgh Riverhounds (USL-C)
Highmark Stadium – Pittsburgh, PA
Kickoff: May 14 – 7 p.m. ET
Round 3 scenarios: TBA
BROADCAST: ESPN+
 
By Craig Tower

The Dayton Dutch Lions enter the Second Round having defeated the Erie Commodores 2-1 on the road in a windy First Round match. The winning goal in that match was scored by 2018 USL PDL All–League Best XI midfielder Tate Robertson, who will look to lead the Lions to victory against their USL Pro opponents on Tuesday night. Robertson’s success is no exception, as the Dutch Lions have graduated two goalkeepers (Chris Froschauer and Stephen Cleveland) and a forward (JJ Williams) to Major League Soccer. Founded in 2010, the Lions played for several seasons in the pro ranks of USL, with their biggest moment coming in the 2012 US Open Cup run when they upset the Columbus Crew of MLS. Their 2018 season was a success and saw them emerge as Great Lakes Division and Central Conference Champions 2018 on an 8-4-3 record. They don’t play their first USL League Two (formerly PDL) game until May 18 against their sister club Cincinnati Dutch Lions and will look to team leaders like Robertson in facing their former USL Pro foes from Pittsburgh on Tuesday night in the cup.

The Pittsburgh Riverhounds reached the Third Round last year where they lost to FC Cincinnati by a 3-1 scoreline. In addition, they come into the Open Cup match unbeaten in their last seven league games, but they have only recorded two victories in that stretch. The Pennsylvania side will look to midfielder Kevin Kerr for leadership on the field and, as their leading goalscorer in 2019, a tally or two. Fellow midfielder and recent Team of the Week player Kenardo Forbes will seek to spark the offense, having tied the team lead with three assists on the year. Pittsburgh hasn’t had a lot of success in the tournament over the years.

In the club’s history that dates back to 1999, the Riverhounds have only won a Second Round game four times (2001, 2014, 2015, 2018). Their most memorable run, by far was in 2001 when they upset the Colorado Rapids (MLS) at home, defeated the El Paso Patriots, a fellow A-League (Div. 2 pro) club, on the road before losing a heartbreaking match in the Quarterfinals to the defending champion Chicago Fire (MLS) on a golden goal in extra time. The Riverhounds also have the unfortunate distinction of being the pro club that has been upset the most (six times) by an Open Division team in the Modern Era. Obviously, Pittsburgh will try to put their history behind them as they look to knock off the Dutch Lions in front of their home fans.

It will be the first meeting between the Dutch Lions and the Riverhounds since the Dutch Lions left USL Pro after the 2014 season. The teams have met a total of nine times, with the Dutch Lions holding a 4-3-2 edge against their Pittsburgh foes. In addition to winning the last game against the ‘Hounds, the Dutch Lions also have never lost in the Riverhounds current home, Highmark Stadium.

New York Cosmos B (NPSL) at Hartford Athletic (USL-C)
Al-Marzook Field – Hartford, CT
Kickoff: May 14 – 7:30 p.m. ET
Round 3 scenarios: TBA
BROADCAST: ESPN+

By Michael Battista

A great weight was lifted off the New York Cosmos B’s shoulders last week when they won their first tournament game last week. The National Premier Soccer League (NPSL) team has multiple league wins and a solid defense behind it heading into its next game. On the other side, Hartford Athletic of the USL Championship has a lot riding on a good result against a lower league side. Struggles on and off the field in its’ first year may be turned around with a win in the knockout tournament against a side they’ve never faced before.

The New York Cosmos B enter the Second Round with their organization’s first Open Cup win since the club’s senior team in the NASL reached the Fifth Round in 2016. They are riding a four game win streak across all competitions, and with a high profile friendly against 2. Bundesliga side FC St. Pauli happening later this month. The team controlled the majority of its game against USL League Two side Black Rock FC but needed a stoppage time header by Bledi Bardic to advance through. In the team’s most recent NPSL win over Boston City FC, Salvadoran midfielder Junior Burgos made his debut and scored two goals in the squad’s 5-0 win. He joins Charlie Ledula and Aaron Dennis, who opened scoring against Black Rock, as the only players with multiple goals this season – and he did it in only one start. With another league matchup happening in New England this weekend against Greater Lowell United FC, the Cosmos will have a lot on their plate heading into Tuesday.

On the other end, Hartford Athletic enters the competition as the first Connecticut-based professional team to take part in the tournament since the Connecticut Wolves (A-League, Div. 2 pro) in 2001. In its inaugural season, the team has been winless in 10 straight games to start the year with the only bright spot being a 1-1 draw against the Charlotte Independence in the team’s home opener on May 4. Hartford won’t be playing in the stadium it traditionally calls home since the game is being played at Al-Marzook Field on the University of Hartford’s campus. Seven players are tied for scoring the most goals this season with one each and the team’s main goalkeeper, Jacob Lissek, has allowed 14 goals over seven appearances. The team will hit the road following the early week game and head for D.C. as they face fellow expansion side Loudoun United FC on Sunday, May 19.

Mecklenburg County Sportsplex – Matthews, NC
Kickoff: May 14 – 7 p.m. ET
Round 3 scenarios: TBA
BROADCAST: ESPN+

By Lee Ifans

Few had picked Florida Soccer Soldiers as capable of providing an upset in the first round. It was a formality for NPSL champions Miami FC in the eyes of many. Having been 1-0 down at halftime the UPSL’s Soccer Soldiers turned in a second 45 full of heart and fight and got their just reward with a 2-1 upset. A second round trip to the Charlotte Independence likely won’t daunt the Miami-based Florida Soccer Soldiers who have experience of playing an important game away from home after their impressive showing in the UPSL national playoffs last year.

The Charlotte Independence had a great cup run in their inaugural season back in 2015. They swept their way past the NASL’s Carolina Railhawks and New England Revolution of MLS before an eventual Fifth Round exit to the Chicago Fire. That year, they made it farther than any other USL side and were rewarded with $15,000 in prize money. But since that run it’s mostly been a competition to forget for Charlotte. They played identical schedules in 2016 and 2017, winning road games against USL League Two’s Charlotte Eagles, before falling on the road to North Carolina FC. Last year they were dumped out in the opening round by the Ocean City Nor’easters of USL League Two (PDL).

But right now a cup tie might come as a welcome distraction for the North Carolinians. They stand 16th out of 18 teams in the USL Championship Eastern Conference with just one win in ten games. In addition to the defeat of Miami FC, Soccer Soldiers have not lost a game in 2019. In fact, they haven’t even dropped a point, winning every game they have played. The Independence will need to be wary of the Soldiers. This should be another closely-fought game.

The Villages SC (USL-2) at Tampa Bay Rowdies (USL-C)
Al Lang Stadium – St. Petersburg, FL
Kickoff: May 14 – 7 p.m. ET
Round 3 scenarios: TBA
BROADCAST: ESPN+

By Joshua Taylor

The Villages SC are coming off an 8-7 win on penalty kicks in the opening round against the Lakeland Tropics. The Villages SC haven’t started their USL League Two campaign yet but will be looking to get past the second round of the competition for the first time in three previous tries. Surviving the Lakeland Tropics was a welcomed result for fans of The Villages SC as they had suffered unfortunate results in the last three outings. In 2016, the club thought they had pulled off their first win over a pro team in the Open Cup when they defeated the Charleston Battery on the road, but it was ruled that they had used an ineligible player  and were disqualified. The last two years, they were one-and-done, losing both games to the Jacksonville Armada of the NPSL. The Villages will be seeking their first trip to the Third Round in another in-state battle in St. Pete.

The Tampa Bay Rowdies are coming into this match riding a six-game unbeaten streak (3-0-3) in league play. They are currently in second place in the USL Championship Eastern Conference with a 5-0-5 record (20 points). Their last game was last Wednesday when they earned a 1-0 road win against Nashville SC with a goal from Juan Tejada. Sebastian Guenzatti is the team’s leading goalscorer with five while the Rowdies top assist man is veteran Leo Fernandes. Defense has also been key to their success led by goalkeeper John McCarthy, who spent years as the backup with the Philadelphia Union (MLS) has been a tremendous offseason signing. McCarthy currently leads the league in clean sheets with six. McCarthy brings MLS experience to the roster, but also US Open Cup experience, as the Philadelphia native carried the Union to the US Open Cup Final in 2015 and was a finalist for TheCup.us Player of the Tournament that year.

This will be the first meeting between these two teams as the Tampa Bay Rowdies will be looking to stay undefeated at Al Lang Stadium this season. The Rowdies are still aiming for a signature cup run in their team’s history that dates back to 2010. The Rowdies have only won multiple games in a single tournament once and that came in 2013 when they played spoiler. That year, in front of their home fans at Al Lang Stadium, they defeated the Seattle Sounders FC (MLS) 1-0 to put an end to an historic run by the MLS side. It ended the Sounders’ Modern Era record 22-game unbeaten streak in the tournament and denied the three-time defending champs a shot at becoming the first team to ever win four straight US Open Cup titles.

Last year, the Rowdies were defeated 1-0 by the Jacksonville Armada, a pro team from the NPSL.

South Georgia Tormenta FC 2 (USL-2) at Nashville SC (USL-C)
Dean A Hayes Track & Soccer Stadium – Murfreesboro, TN
Kickoff: May 14 – 8:30 p.m. ET
Round 3 scenarios: TBA
BROADCAST: ESPN+

By Craig Tower

South Georgia Tormenta 2 is coming off an impressive 3-0 win against USL League One side Chattanooga Red Wolves SC despite the Red Wolves dominating the possession. Tormenta 2 did play a USL League Two opener this past weekend earning a 4-0 win against Peachtree City MOBA at Erk Russell Park. Jarvian Wigfall and Adrian Bilhardt, who both scored a goal in their last Open Cup match last week, contributed a goal each to pick up their first league win and will seek their first pro team upset on the road in Nashville.

Nashville SC is coming into the Second Round of the US Open Cup in fourth place in the USL Championship Eastern Conference with a 5-3-2 record (17 points). Nashville SC dominated Swope Park Rangers 5-1 this past weekend at home. Forward Daniel Rios is the team’s top goalscorer getting two goals in their last game to bring his season total to seven. With the win, the team also broke the franchise record for goals in a single game and has improved their goalscoring throughout the season. Nashville SC hopes their offensive form will help them go on another deep run in the Lamar Hunt US Open Cup. Last year Nashville SC reached the Fifth Round in their inaugural Open Cup run, highlighted by a 2-0 upset of the Colorado Rapids of MLS.

NTX Rayados (USASA / North Texas Premier Soccer Assoc.) at OKC Energy (USL-C)
John Crain Field – Norman, OK
Kickoff: May 14 – 8:30 p.m. ET
Round 3 scenarios: TBA
BROADCAST: ESPN+

By Michael Battista

Last year, in the Second Round, NTX Rayados dominated OKC Energy in extra time by scoring three goals en route to a 5-2 win. For the Rayados, after six previous trips to the tournament, it was their first win over a pro team. However, on the other side, it was their first one-and-done performance in the club’s history that dates back to 2014. The Rayados went on to the best cup run in team history, reaching the Fourth Round where they took on the Houston Dynamo on the road where they would fall 5-0 to the eventual champions. North Texas were the last Open Division team standing, and earned $25,000 in prize money as a result. After 363 days, the OKC Energy and the NTX Rayados will meet again but this time the USL Championship side will have home field advantage.

For NTX Rayados, the road to the US Open Cup and the tournament itself have been filled with two things; clean sheet wins or penalty kick shootouts. Last week in Round One, Mariano Fazio played hero for his team scoring the tying goal deep into stoppage time against NPSL side Little Rock Rangers and also scored the deciding penalty kick in his team’s shootout win. In the four games the team needed to win during qualifying, two went to penalties including a brutal ten-round affair, while the other two were won with a combined scoreline of 7-0.

OKC Energy is coming off one of its most disappointing seasons since the team launched in 2013. The club failed to make the playoffs, tied its worst-ever table finish in league play and failed to win a US Open Cup game thanks to that amateur team from North Texas. This year, the team has been already been different with the squad currently sitting in eighth place after ten games while also picking up established talent like defender Mike da Fonte. The Energy will be looking to get back to their old ways in the tournament that included reaching the Fourth Round in three consecutive years (2015-2017).

Tulsa Roughnecks (USL-C) at Austin Bold (USL-C)
Bold Stadium – Del Valle, TX
Kickoff: May 14 – 8:30 p.m. ET
Round 3 scenarios: TBA
BROADCAST: ESPN+

By Matt Clark

The Tulsa Roughnecks will hope to bounce back from a “one-and-done” performance last year when they travel to Del Valle, Texas to take on the Austin Bold.

Last season, the Roughnecks were knocked out of the Second Round of the US Open Cup after a 4-3 home loss to Wichita FC — marking just the second time in Cup history that an NPSL squad upset a Division 2 pro team side.

If standings account for anything (and they typically don’t in Cup play), this should be a very evenly-matched contest and just a point separates Tulsa from Austin in the Western Conference of the USL Championship table.

However, the biggest difference between the two clubs is goals. So far this season, Austin has managed a paltry eight goals in nine matches, despite racking up 14 points in league play. Tulsa, on the other hand, thanks to Luca Lobo’s seven goals, have 21 on the season. While 21 goals seems impressive, the reason for Tulsa still hanging out in fifth in the Western Conference is the fact that their defense have given up 17 goals.

Kleber leads Austin with three goals on the season while Tulsa has four players with at least that many goals in the Championship.

While Austin is an expansion team making its tournament debut, Tulsa is participating in the competition for the fifth time. Their previous trips to the Open Cup have been a mixed bag. A pair of upset losses to amateur teams (2015 at Des Moines Menace; 2018 at FC Wichita), they won their inaugural game against the Seacoast United Phantoms (USL League Two), only to fall to the OKC Energy FC in the next round. Their best run came in 2017 when they defeated the Energy U-23s, and won a dramatic penalty kick shootout with fellow USL side San Antonio FC before losing a heartbreaking game to FC Dallas of MLS thanks to an own goal in Round 4.

Laredo Heat SC (NPSL) at San Antonio FC (USL-C)
Toyota Field – San Antonio, TX
Kickoff: May 14 – 8:30 p.m. ET
Round 3 scenarios: TBA
BROADCAST: ESPN+

By Jake Sillick

The Laredo Heat were able to squeak by Brazos Valley Cavalry in the First Round of a second half penalty kick, 1-0. They will be without the services of their midfielder, Luis Hincapie, who was sent off in the match vs. Brazos Valley. They still haven’t started NPSL Lone Star Conference competition yet, and have had a full week to rest and prepare for the match against professional side San Antonio FC. This is the first time Laredo will play a San Antonio-based professional team and are seeking their second win over a pro team. Their first came during their best cup run in team history back in 2014 when they were a member of USL League Two (PDL). That year they upset the NASL’s Fort Lauderdale Strikers on the road to earn a date with the Houston Dynamo (MLS) in Round 4. The Dynamo would score a first half goal and hold on to a 1-0 win. The Heat were the Open Division team that advanced the farthest in the tournament that year, and took home $15,000 in prize money.

In three previous trips to the US Open Cup, San Antonio FC is undefeated in the second round of US Open Cup. The club has reached the Fourth Round two out of the three years and has earned two dates with MLS teams (2016 at Houston Dynamo; 2018 vs. FC Dallas). Last year, they defeated the Midland-Odessa Sockers FC 4-0 on the road before eliminating USL foe Colorado Springs Switchbacks FC in penalty kicks to earn a home game with FC Dallas. This season hasn’t gone well for San Antonio FC so far, as they sit 16th out of the 18 teams in the USL Championship Western Conference. They have earned 11 points out of 10 matches and a 3-5-2 record. Brian Gomez has been a bright spot for San Antonio so far this season, netting two goals and three assists so far this season.

Cal FC (USASA / UPSL) at Las Vegas Lights (USL-C)
Cashman Field – Las Vegas, NV
Kickoff: May 14 – 10:30 p.m. ET
Round 3 scenarios: TBA
BROADCAST: ESPN+

By Michael Battista

The only game in the western region for Tuesday night will be pitting two teams with substantially different Open Cup histories and one common factor. After a two-year hiatus, Cal FC is making its fourth US Open Cup appearance, and of course is best known for its giant-killing ways from the club’s 2012 US Open Cup run. The Las Vegas Lights are back for their second US Open Cup appearance led by the man who was the head coach of that 2012 Cal FC team: Eric Wynalda.

Local qualifier Cal FC advanced to the Second Round after brushing past 2018 NPSL national semifinalist FC Mulhouse Portland, 5-1, thanks in part to a hat trick performance by former Chicago Fire midfielder Orr Barouch. The team, which is currently slated to go fully pro later this year in the upcoming NPSL Founders Cup tournament and subsequent professional league, will be going up against their former coach for the first time on Tuesday night. The last time Wynalda and Cal FC were on a field was in 2012 when the Thousand Oaks, Calif.-based club made their historic run in the Open Cup by defeating Major League Soccer side Portland Timbers in 2012, becoming the first Open Division team to do so without needing penalty kicks.

Las Vegas will be looking to advance to the Third Round for the second straight year after making its US Open Cup debut last season with a win over FC Tucson of USL League Two (PDL). The tournament run would come to an end on the road with a 2-1 upset loss to FC Golden State Force (USL League Two). The team’s regular season performance that year saw it finish in the bottom three of the western conference with the second-most goals allowed for any team in the west. Now, nearly one third into 2019 and the squad sits in sixth place with a 4-4-2 record. There are six players on the Las Vegas who are not available due to being cup tied to other teams who competed in US Open Cup Open Division Local qualifying, including three players who suited up for Cal FC: Cristhian Hernandez, Eric Gonzalez, and Irvin Raul Parra.

Virginia United 2:6 Richmond Kickers
An historic night from striker Charles Boateng helped Richmond Kickers (USL League One) comfortably dispatch Virginia United (ANFEEU / Woodland Soccer Lg.) 6-2 at City Stadium in Richmond, Virginia. Boateng scored four goals – two in each half – before eventually being subbed off with an injury. Daniel Jackson and Eli Lockerby provided the rest of the scoring for Richmond while Virginia United’s goals came courtesy of Eliot Martinez and Bernardo Mejano. Boateng became the first player since Dom Dwyer in 2015 to score four or more goals in a single Open Cup game and is just the 12th player to do so in the Modern Era (1995-Present). Richmond will travel south in Round 2 to take on North Carolina FC (USL Championship) on Wednesday, May 15. [+] FULL MATCH REPORT

The Villages SC 1:1 (8:7 PK) Lakeland Tropics
It took 120 minutes and ten rounds of penalties, but The Villages SC (USL-2) eventually prevailed 8-7 in penalties after a 1-1 draw with Florida rivals Lakeland Tropics (USL-2) at Lake Myrtle Beach Sports Complex in Auburndale, Florida. The Villages opened the scoring in the 16th minute, courtesy of a marauding run into the box from left back Danilo Seglio, who buried the rebound after his initial shot was saved. Lakeland equalized before halftime via a goal from Raheem Tayler-Parkes, with the assist coming from Chase Hovious. The stalemate couldn’t be broken in the second half or extra time, so penalties would have to decide the winner. Both sides converted their initial kicks before trading misses up until the fifth round when The Villages goalkeeper Jerfesson stepped up with a chance to win it, only to be denied by Tropics keeper Joel Serrano. Both teams converted their next four kicks before The Villages midfielder Sukrija Dudic played the hero and converted in the tenth round to send his side through. The Villages will travel to St. Petersburg on Tuesday, May 14 for a Second Round matchup with the Tampa Bay Rowdies (USL Championship). [+] FULL MATCH REPORT

FC Motown 4:4 (3:5 PK) NY Red Bulls U-23
The New York Red Bulls Under-23s (USL-2) side overcame two blown leads and a half hour rain delay to defeat FC Motown (NPSL) 5-3 in penalty kicks after a 4-4 draw. All eight goals before the shootout were scored by eight different players. Joseph Fala, Kene Eze, Cameron Vickers, and Maximiliano Garcia scored for Motown while New York got their goals from JP Marin, Brian Saramago, Omar Sowe, and Jeciel Cedeno. Lightning and heavy rain kept both teams in the locker room for an additional 20 minutes at halftime before the second half could resume. New York went on to convert all five of their penalties in the shootout, which turned out to be enough to send them through. The Red Bulls’ U-23 side advances to the Second Round for just the second time in their nine year existence. They will travel southwest on Tuesday, May 14 to take on Memphis 901 FC (USL Championship). [+] FULL MATCH REPORT

West Chester United 1:1 (5:4 PK) FC Baltimore Christos
Samuel Phelps scored in the sixth round of penalties and West Chester United SC (USL of Pennsylvania) defeated hosts FC Baltimore Christos 5-4 in penalty kicks after a 1-1 draw at Homewood Field on the campus of Johns Hopkins University. West Chester, playing in their fifth straight away match of the tournament (going back to the Open Division Local qualifying tournament), opened the scoring early in the first half with a headed goal from Troy Amspacher that came courtesy of an Andreas Bartosinski assist. Christos defender Jake Dengler fired a shot from distance with just enough power to deflect off the keeper’s hands and into the net to even the score in the 56th minute. The two sides combined for a total of 29 shots, but only nine were on target and only two goals were produced. Each side converted four out of their first five penalties before failing to convert on their sixth attempts. Phelps took his penalty well and Christos’ Charles Pulliam skied his shot over the bar to send the away side through to the second round. West Chester will meet Birmingham Legion FC (USL Championship) on Wednesday, May 15 at BBVA Compass Field in Birmingham. [+] FULL MATCH REPORT

Chattanooga Red Wolves 0:3 South Georgia Tormenta FC 2
Goals from Jarvian Wigfell, Luca Mayr-Fälten and Adrian Billhardt were enough to help amateur side South Georgia Tormenta FC 2 (USL-2) defeat professional side Chattanooga Red Wolves (USL-1) on Tuesday night at the campus of Georgia Southern University in Statesboro. Wigfell opened the scoring the 25th minute, with Mayr-Fälten and Billhardt adding theirs in the 58th and 74th minutes, respectively. Most of Tormenta’s squad was in Statesboro for less than a week, giving themselves little time to prep, but it turned out to be much ado about nothing. They will travel to Dean A. Hayes Track & Soccer Stadium on the campus of Middle Tennessee State University next Tuesday, May 14 to take on Nashville FC (USL Championship). [+] FULL MATCH REPORT

Forward Madison FC 2:0 Bavarian SC
First-half goals from Brandon Eaton and Jiro Barriga Toyama helped Forward Madison FC (USL-1) defeat Milwaukee rivals Bavarians FC (USASA/UPSL) before a crowd of about 400 at Uihlein Soccer Park. Sporting a 2-2-1 record in their debut season, Forward Madison deployed a side without Paulo Junior and three other regular starters who are on loan from Minnesota United of Major League Soccer. Eaton opened the scoring in the 9th minute and Toyama added his goal in the 36th and that was enough for Forward Madison to overcome Bavarians, who are the reigning UPSL national champions. Bavarians were playing their first competitive match of the 2019 season. Forward Madison will visit El Paso Locomotive (USL Championship) on Wednesday, May 15 in the Second Round.

Brazos Valley Cavalry FC 0:1 Laredo Heat
Playing in the US Open Cup for the first time in five years, Laredo Heat (NPSL) made sure they wouldn’t be exiting early after dropping Brazos Valley Cavalry FC (USL-2), 1-0, at the Texas A&M International Soccer Complex. Francois Sakou bagged the match’s lone goal in the 60th minute after finishing from the spot. Both teams would go down to 10 men after Ivan Leon and Jose Luis Hincappie both collected two yellow cards. Laredo now moves on to face San Antonio FC (USL) at Toyota Field in San Antonio in the Second Round 7:30 p.m. CT on Tuesday, May 14. [+] FULL MATCH REPORT

El Farolito 2:1 Academica SC
1993 US Open Cup Champions El Farolito scored twice in the first half and withstood a second half rally to defeat Academica SC 2-1 at Academica Field in Turlock, California on Tuesday night. Miguel Garduno scored the first El Farolito goal in the 21st minute, courtesy of an assist from Edson Cardona. Leonardo Fredes scored a bicycle kick already worthy of consideration for Goal of the Tournament to stretch the lead to 2-0, but the celebration was muted as Fredes ended up fracturing his arm coming down from the shot. El Farolito’s Walter Mazzolatti picked up his second yellow in the 54th minute and the visitors were forced to play a man down the rest of the way. Academica took advantage and in the 72nd minute, Jorge Carmoa pulled one back for the home side. But El Farolito held on and earned their first Open Cup win in the Modern Era (1995-Present). It was also their first win in the competition since their 1993 tite. They will host Fresno FC (USL Championship) at Boxer Stadium in San Francisco on Wednesday, May 15. [+] FULL MATCH REPORT

FC Mulhouse Portland 1:5 Cal FC
Former MLS player Orr Barouch led the way with a hat trick and German Alfaro, Danny Barrera, and Richard Menjivar each added a goal apiece to help amateur side Cal FC (USASA/UPSL) defeat FC Mulhouse Portland (NPSL) 5-1. Barouch only needed one half to complete his hat trick and the darlings of the 2012 US Open Cup scored their fifth and final goal six minutes into the second half. Barrera, the 2012 TheCup.us Lower Division Player of the Tournament, added an assist on top of his first half goal as he returned to the club that made him famous after stints with several USL sides over the past few years. Cal FC will travel to Las Vegas next Tuesday, May 14 to take on the Las Vegas Lights (USL Championship) in Round 2. Eric Wynalda, who led Cal FC on their Cinderella run in 2012, is the current head coach of the Lights. [+] FULL MATCH REPORT

FC Golden State Force 0:2 Orange County FC
Cody Shelton and Aaron Lombardi scored in the first and second halves, respectively, to help Orange County FC (NPSL) advance past FC Golden State Force (USL-2) 2-0 at the Orange County Great Park-Championship Soccer Stadium. Shelton opened the scoring in the 28th minute with help from a clever back heel pass via teammate Blake Frischknecht. Lombardi converted a free kick from 25 yards in the 68th minute and that was enough to see Orange County through to the second round. Coached by former United States international Paul Caliguri, Orange County FC will return to the Orange County Great Park-Championship Soccer Stadium next Wednesday, May 15 when they “visit” local rivals Orange County SC (USL Championship).

Dayton Dutch Lions 2:1 Erie Commodores FC

Philadelphia Lone Star FC 1:2 Reading United AC

Reading United entered the game riding the Modern Era’s longest streak of consecutive US Open Cup appearances by an Open Division team. By the time their opening round match with Philadelphia Lone Star ended, United had added to another one of their Modern Era records: an eight-game unbeaten streak in opening round matches. Penn State forward Jeremy Rafanello had a brace in a two-minute span inside 20 minutes to put Reading United in front 2-0 but Philadelphia Lone Star would pull one back in the second half. Late in the game, Lone Star appeared to have equalized but the play was ruled offside. A review of the video appears to show the play was not offside. [+] FULL MATCH REPORT

South Georgia Tormenta FC 0:1 Greenville Triumph FC
In a meeting between USL League 1 sides, Greenville Triumph FC proved a fitting name as they ran out 1-0 winners over South Georgia Tormenta FC at Legacy Early College. Cole Seiler fought through a goalmouth scrum to slot home the winner in the 75th minute for the only score of the game. Greenville held firm in defense over the final 15 minutes of the match to see out the victory, advancing to the Second Round for the first time in club history. Greenville returns to Legacy Early College next Wednesday, May 15 when they play host to Charleston Battery (USL) at 7 p.m. ET. [+] FULL MATCH REPORT

Florida Soccer Soldiers 2:1 Miami FC
In arguably the biggest upset of the First Round, the defending NPSL champions Miami FC were shocked to end up on the losing end against amateur side, and first-time entry Florida Soccer Soldiers 2-1. The Miami FC was off to a good start in the 6th minute with a goal from Miami FC forward Ariel Martinez. After halftime, the Florida Soccer Soldiers struck back with a goal from striker William Stamatis in the 46th minute to tie the match 1-1. In the 87th minute, midfielder Carlos Daniel Menesses scored the late winner for the UPSL side to give them the First Round win and a spot in the Second Round where they will travel to North Carolina to take on the Charlotte Independence (USL Championship).

New York Cosmos B 2:1 Black Rock FC
Substitute Bledi Barcic headed in a corner kick six minutes into second half stoppage time to win the match for the Cosmos (NPSL) and break the hearts of upset-minded Black Rock FC (USL League Two), who had withstood a first-half barrage and equalized in the 87th minute when Komar Martinez-Paiz’s shot took a deflection and trickled into the back of the net. The Cosmos had dominated the first half and had an early penalty kick by Danny Szetela saved by Leland Gazo, but got the opening goal in the 28th minute from Aaron Dennis off an assist from Giuseppe Barone. Black Rock started to apply pressure of its own midway through the second half, eventually resulting in the tying goal. The Cosmos advance to meet Hartford Athletic (USL Championship) at the University of Hartford Tuesday at 7 p.m. [+] FULL MATCH REPORT

NTX Rayados 2:2 (4:2 PK) Little Rock Rangers
NTX Rayados (USASA) needed late heroics and a shootout to make it to the Second Round of the US Open Cup, 2-2 (4-2), against Little Rock Rangers (NPSL). Backs against the wall with time winding down, Mariano Fazio scored in the fifth minute of stoppage time for 10-man Rayados to force extra time on the road against Little Rock. An additional 30 minutes weren’t enough, setting up the match to be decided by penalty kicks. After Trevor Reed missed the first attempt for Little Rock, Christian Okeke put Rayados up 1-0. The two teams matched each other over the next two rounds, but disaster struck when Robel Dent failed to convert for the Rangers in the fourth round. Fazio finished what he started at the end of regulation, slotting home his attempt to clinch the match for Rayados. The win sets up a rematch of last season’s Second Round matchup against OKC Energy FC (USL) at John Crain Field in Norman, Oklahoma, next Tuesday at 7:30 p.m. CT. [+] FULL MATCH REPORT

Duluth FC 1:1 (1:3 PK) Des Moines Menace
Ninety minutes of regulation and 30 minutes of extra time weren’t enough to separate Duluth FC (NPSL) and the Des Moines Menace (USL-2) at Lions Field in Urbandale, Iowa. Ignacio Goya de Anca put the Menace up 1-0 in just the 9th minute of action off an assist from Marek Weber, but Des Moines found their advantage wiped away after giving up a penalty in the 35th minute. Carlyle Junior converted from the spot, and the teams would go into halftime tied 1-1. As the second half wore on, neither team could find separation, sending the game into extra time, and later penalty kicks. Lucas Jacobs was the only Duluth player to convert his attempt, while Des Moines’ Oquin Robinson, Rory, O’Keeffe and Weber all found the back of the net to give the Mance the match, 3-1. Des Moines now moves on to the Second Round as they get set to host Saint Louis FC (USL) at Cownie Soccer Park in Des Moines, Iowa, next Wednesday at 7:30 p.m. CT. [+] FULL MATCH REPORT

The first opportunity for FC Denver came when Cesar Castillo scored off a deflection to put FC Denver in front. In the 64th minute Grant Mobley also scored off a deflection to get Midland-Odessa Sockers FC to tie the match but FC Denver would use Crouse’s game-winner to punch their ticket to the Second Round where they will travel to play the Colorado Springs Switchbacks for the second year in a row.
