FC Dallas left Los Angeles in high spirits after they pulled off a 2-1 win in extra time over the Galaxy. This was an exciting game that had all of the scoring action come late in the match. This semifinal match-up had a trip to the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup final on the line.
FC Dallas completed an improbable comeback as they scored two goals in the final five minutes of the game. This will be the third time that FC Dallas will be in the U.S. Open Cup Final in franchise history. They missed their two previous chances at the title in 2005 and 2007 when they lost to the LA Galaxy and the New England Revolution.
