The U.S. Open Cup is the oldest national soccer tournament in the United States. The single elimination tournament features professional, semi-professional, and amateur teams competing for the prestigious U.S. Open Cup title and an automatic berth in next year’s Concacaf Champions Cup tournament. The 2024 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup features 96 teams from across the amateur and professional ranks, including eight MLS clubs, playing a total of 95 games from March to September.

This is the fifth time LAFC will compete in the historic U.S. Open Cup competition. The Club’s best performance in the tournament came in 2018 when they advanced into the semifinal round.
