Following Austin FC’s victory over San Jose Earthquakes last Tuesday night in the U.S. Open Cup Quarterfinal Round, U.S. Soccer today confirmed the details of Austin’s away match vs. Minnesota United FC in the tournament’s Semifinal Round. The match will take place at 7:00 p.m. CT on Wednesday, September 17 at Allianz Field, and it will be available to watch on Paramount+ and CBS Sports Network.
In the event Austin FC defeats Minnesota in the Semifinal Round, the Club would host the 2025 U.S. Open Cup Final at Q2 Stadium on October 1.
Austin FC is making its first-ever appearance in the U.S. Open Cup Semifinal Round while taking part in the tournament for the third time. September’s match will mark the second time in Club history that Austin has played in the semifinals of a major knockout competition, joining the 2022 MLS Cup Playoffs.
The U.S. Open Cup is the oldest national soccer tournament in the United States, structured as a single elimination knockout tournament featuring 96 teams from various professional, semi-professional, and amateur levels that compete for the prestigious tournament championship as well as an automatic berth in next season’s Concacaf Champions Cup. 2025 marks the 110th edition of the historic tournament. Austin FC’s victory in the Quarterfinal Round means the Verde & Black need to win two (2) further games to lift the trophy.
