The 2024 US Open Cup began all the way back in March with roughly 100 teams representing 14 soccer leagues throughout the United States. After more than six months of play, the US Open Cup final will be played between Los Angeles Football Club and Sporting Kansas City, which are both Major League Soccer teams. (Not every MLS team participated in the Cup this year, a decision that caused drama in the soccer community.) If Sporting KC wins tonight, that would mark fifth U.S. Open Cup title for the franchise, a record for most U.S. Open Cup wins by any MLS team.
The match will be played on LAFC’s home turf at BMO Stadium in Los Angeles, with kickoff scheduled for 10:30 p.m ET. The game will be available exclusively to MLS Season Pass subscribers on Apple TV. Here’s everything you need to know about how to watch LAFC vs. Sporting KC tonight.
