I love the US Open Cup. I love the history, the format and the fact that it’s a big, big trophy that you get to hoist over your head. The perks of qualifying for the CONCACAF Champions League is also a sweet deal. But ultimately for me, I love it because it gives a team like FC Dallas a chance for the fringe players to show their worth and that they not only belong on this team, but have earned their chance for more significant minutes too.
Last night, FC Dallas fans got the chance to see Reggie Cannon suit up for the first time with the senior team and he did not disappoint.
