Alejandro Bedoya's goal sends Union to U.S. Open Cup semifinals with 1-0 win over Orlando City

The Union advanced to the semifinals of the U.S. Open Cup for the first time in three years on Wednesday, knocking out Orlando City with a 1-0 win that could easily have been more.

Alejandro Bedoya had the goal, cashing in on a well-worked corner kick in the fourth minute. Borek Dockal played a short pass to Haris Medunjanin, who served a cross that Fafa Picault met with a forceful header. Orlando goalkeeper Earl Edwards Jr. got a piece of the ball, but could only parry it to Bedoya, who smashed it home from just off the goal line.
