圣路易斯城队史首进美国公开杯决赛 10月21日客场挑战哥伦布
位于密苏里州的圣路易斯市，圣路易斯城SC将于10月21日（本周二）晚7时（中部时间）在哥伦布 ScottsMiracle-Gro Field 球场客场挑战哥伦布机员队，争夺美国公开杯（U.S. Open Cup）冠军——这是球队建队以来首次打进这项拥有113年历史的赛事的决赛。
美国公开杯是美国历史最悠久的足球赛事。本场比赛的场地是第70个承办公开杯决赛的球场；哥伦布队此前三次晋级决赛，只在2002年赢得过一次冠军，上一次参加决赛还是2010年。获胜球队将自动获得2027年中北美及加勒比海冠军杯的参赛资格。圣路易斯城本赛季在各条战线此前曾保持连续21场不败，但刚在上周六的主场比赛中2比3不敌明尼苏达联队，无败纪录就此终结。本场决赛，球队期待在队史首次捧起这座美国足坛最古老的冠军奖杯。（GSM 据圣路易斯城SC俱乐部、美国足协报道）
