Welcome back to another day discussing the past of the Metro/RBNY US Open Cup moments for this club, but now I have to be a bit negative as for a time the US Soccer Federation reduced the number of spots in the round where MLS Sides entered the competition.
For a certain amount of time this club as the MetroStars or RBNY had to qualify for their US Open Cup spot which in my book was a disappointment. How does US Soccer justify allowing MLS clubs to qualify for their single elimination knockout tournament?
I hated it that the club had to go thru all these games that got them to qualify for a round proper and I have to admit that I never counted these games, because I felt they were a waste of time and energy.
