After a third round that saw some dramatic late goals, but just one “Cupset,” the US Open Cup Round of 32 draw has revealed the next phase of the tournament.
U.S. Soccer conducted the draw Thursday afternoon. This round sees the remaining Major League Soccer sides enter the tournament, alongside the winners from round three.
Round three saw the remaining amateur open division, as well as Division 3 USL League One and NISA, clubs bow out of the tournament. That means only MLS (D1) and USL Championship (D2) teams remain. And unfortunately, only five of the sixteen matchups pit clubs from different leagues against each other. However, the cinderella side from 2022 remains alive, as last year’s finalists Sacramento Republic defeated Oakland Roots to earn their place in the draw.
The draw was divided into regional groups, with matchups set to take place May 9-10. Unlike the first three rounds, all of the games are officially streamed from here out. Exact times, dates and streaming platforms are to be announced. The third round saw games streaming via the Bleacher Report App and YouTube channel, as well as the new CBS Sports Golazo Network.
