Preview: USOC Final – SportingKC – Sounders
Well we are finally to the US Open Cup final and the hype and tension seems really high right now and could just about snap, but the players from both sides will have to wait till 7:30 to kick off. We should all expect both teams to be going all out and this match could be more like a boxing match with players from both sides going back and forth with each other and having several rounds of trying to knock each other completely out. Sporting is playing in their first US Open Cup final since 2004 when they won it and the Seattle Sounders are going for a record fourth US Open Cup championship in a row, which is obviously something that nobody has done. (Other teams have won more than 4 championships being that the US Open Cup started in in 1914.)
I have been trying to get better at making predictions for this blog post but I am not touching this game as I could speculate all sorts of results but I would almost definitely be wrong and even what I am partially thinking about is most likely inaccurate. So I too am really interested to get this match started and see how it pans out.
