Welp every team I was rooting for in the Open Cup lost this evening. The Magic of the Cup!

Oh, man. Vermont Green had a shot to win the shootout but Mitch Baker fired high. Westchester SC's Bryan Vásquez converts to start the sixth round, and goalkeeper Matías Molina denies Vermont's Connor Miller to sent the #USL-1 side through. #USOC2026

Vermont's Riley Moloney with the Panenka to put the Green ahead 3-2 after four rounds! #USOC2026

🚨Penalty Shootout🚨 Vermont Green (USL-2) and Westchester SC (USL-1) are going to a penalty shootout after the break for the first trip to the Round of 32 in either club's history. #USOC2026 www.paramountplus.com/live-tv/stre...

The John Motta trophy for best performing amateur team and $50,000 prize could be won tonight. It will go to a USL League Two club. @ashevillecitysc.bsky.social is in “pole position” so to speak for going out on penalties and recording a draw. Only @vermontgreenfc.bsky.social and Flint City can beat

EXTRA TIME IN VERMONT

We are live m.twitch.tv/50plusdoner

My microwave is 1:46

Adds to the red card report

CUPSET FOR THE KICKERS

KICKERS

Football 🤝 Football

Tennessee Tempo are eliminated by #MLSNP side Chattanooga FC, meaning we're down to @vermontgreenfc.bsky.social and Flint City Bucks for the $50,000 bonus to be the the last Open Division team standing, should they advance. #USOC2026

We’re level at the break.

JJ Williams with the flick, Aldair Sanchez with the half-volley finish 🤝 Rhode Island FC leads 1-0 in the rain!

Happy Birthday to the U.S. Open Cup

Pay my mortgage and a month of daycare or go to one World Cup game?

I know I better say Vermont Green or I’m going to get yelled at again.

When my team does something bad but gets away with it. Looking at you Arsenal.

Honestly, Hair Pulls in women's soccer need a hockey rule. If the victim wants to square up. Let em.

Seems like that should be something

Friendlies against Japan, Japan, and Japan.

What did I miss while podcasting???

VIGGO ORTIZ IN THE FINAL MINUTES OF EXTRA TIME AGAINST HIS FORMER TEAM 😮‍💨 Charlotte Independence are up 3-2!

This is the third time since we launched this account that an American soccer team has won a match after receiving two red cards. We're not claiming credit but we're not ruling it out yet either

@sickosfc.bsky.social is going to have fun recapping this round of the US Open Cup in their red card recap! 😂

Omaha doing what Omaha does

CUPSET?

Indy Eleven? more like Indy Ten…. We keep moving! On to the next round!

Well this is exciting

Gonna be busy on the Red Card Report next week.

OMAHA

If you’re wondering what it’s like in Sarajevo this evening.

I know Omaha's up a man, but playing with so much confidence that you've got a defender like Owusu passing it around the final third and making a striker's run into the box is next level.

Interesting way to get a red card

Terrific serve, terrific finish, and a great distracting run from Lasse Kelp across the face of the wall to help make it happen.

This is graphic both totally unnecessary and completely necessary for a yellow card.

THE DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF CONGO TO THE WORLD CUP 🇨🇩

37' 1-0 Portugal. Pulisic shoots wide at one end, Portugal goes right back down the other and Francisco Trincao sticks it to Matt Freese's far post. Gorgeous backheel assist by Bruno Fernandes blew the U.S. defense apart.

This is a really great soccer day World Cup Playoffs US Open Cup USMNT Game just missing some NWSL After Dark to cap it off perfectly.

THE HAUNTING OF THE CUP

Ref injury was a 123786 to 1 shot.

JP Dellacamera, who has broadcast 123786 soccer games in his career, said he has seen this 1 other time.

We have a brand and I love it

We've reached the point where the referee is cramping and asking for the physio. DR Congo ahead 1-0 with eight minutes + stoppage to go in extra time.

Yeah I’m watching America play tonight

Oh no, LSU is gonna hire Gattuso to coach their soccer team now

Indiana's a football school, Iowa's a basketball school, Italy's a baseball nation. Rule of 3 "I's."
