The Round of 16 in the U.S. Open Cup gets underway on Tuesday as the fight for the Lamar Hunt Trophy continues. While attention in recent weeks has been drawn towards the U.S. Women’s National Team’s dominating performances in the group stage of the World Cup in France and build up towards the CONCACAF Gold Cup, MLS has been on a break since June 9th. This time off allotted players whose respective clubs are out of the U.S. Open Cup and are not involved in the Gold Cup a short break to recharge their batteries.
For some, however, the show must go on.
