Mauro Diaz Shines as Dallas Wins 2016 Open Cup

There you have it! FC Dallas is now the 2016 Lamar Hunt US Open Cup Champion! Dallas, though going behind 1-0 in the 6th minute to a very much in form Juan Agudelo, controlled much of the game to pull out a 4-2 win over the Revolution to claim their first piece of silverware since the 1997 US Open Cup.

The question now is, how was FC Dallas so dominant over a renewed New England team? Your answer is solely one person, Mauro Diaz.

Captaining the side, Mauro Diaz took the weight of the final upon his shoulders and forced his team forward.
