The New York Red Bulls knew they were going to be in a tough enviroment when the final was going to be at Children’s Mercy Park. They played against a side that can transform and switch styles so good that even when they let go of their most dangerous scoring threat, they can still play at a dangerous tempo.

But sadly ball watching is a common sin to allow some players to sneak in and find a way to convert chances as the Red Bulls fell to Sporting Kansas City by a final of two goals to one and the home side winning their fourth US Open Cup title in four tries.
