US Open Cup brings much-needed hope to Sporting KC
The stakes are raised for Sporting KC’s US Open Cup Semifinal against Indy Eleven and it offers fans a ray of hope in tough times.
At a time when the Sporting KC fanbase is understandably devoid of optimism, Tuesday’s semifinal in the historic Lamar Hunt US Open Cup offers a ray of hope. The stakes are raised. The team, and the fans, now have something to fight for.
The latest episode of Shades of Blue talks about why we are hesitantly excited ahead of Sporting KC’s Open Cup match against Indy Eleven. We also relive all the bangers from the shutout win over Orlando City in their return to regular MLS play. Plus, what we know about the potential Kayden Pierre move to Genk, and what it will mean for SKC’s roster. Also, our two Kansas City soccer teams switched roles this weekend as the KC Current were thrashed by the Washington Spirit.
