U.S. Open Cup semifinals: A Look Ahead
The way the U.S. Open Cup has played out, there's certainly a David bracket and a Goliath bracket.
The Chicago Fire and Richmond Kickers meet in the former, as both carry underdog stories into their Open Cup semifinal matchup at Toyota Park Tuesday night.
FC Dallas and two-time defending champion Seattle square off in the heavyweight matchup, with the winner undoubtedly being the favorite to capture the championship and automatic berth in the 2012-2013 CONCACAF Champions League that goes along with it.
