FC Cincinnati, who pulled off a major— some might say “massive”— upset over That Yellow Effing Team last night.
FCC will host the Fifth Round tie on June 28th— that’s a Wednesday, for you S8OT folks— at the University of Cincinnati’s Nippert Stadium. The winner will go on to face either Miami FC or Atlanta United in the quarterfinals sometime in mid-July.
The Fire are four wins away from lifting their fifth US Open Cup— a prize the team has made it clear is very much in their sights.
"This is the fans' cup. This is near and dear to our heart."
