It's Day 224 of 2016. US Open Cup A stunning comeback victory for Dallas on the road. Getting the winning goal in the dying seconds just before the teams went to a Penalty Kick Shootout. Game Highlights [VIDEO] The game ended 0-0 after 90, but we got fireworks in the 30 minutes of Added Extra Time in the form of 3 goals and lots of attacking. In the end we saw LA's Ashley Cole defending the post on a set piece like Mike Burns did at the 98 World Cup - very poorly/not at all. In a rematch Dallas will host New England in the Final on Sep 21. (NER beat FCD for the Open Cup title in 07!)
