Charleston Battery upset FC Dallas 3-1 on Tuesday to make it to the semifinals. Charleston got goals from Lazo Alavanja, Ian Fuller and Randi Patterson as they completely dominated FC Dallas. Only a late goal by Kenny Cooper in injury time prevented a shutout.

The other semifinal spot goes to the Seattle Sounders after they defeated the Kansas City Wizards 1-0 in a shootout. Chris Eylander made two saves in the shootout and Zach Scott scored the game winner. Seattle won the shootout by a score of 6-5 after the teams could not score a goal in regulation or overtime. Eylander has not allowed a goal in Seattle’s four U.S. Open Cup games.

With the victory, Seattle will now play Charleston Battery in a matchup between United Soccer League First Division teams. That semifinal is set for August 12th in Charleston. Since Charleston and Seattle are playing in one semifinal, one of them will reach the U.S. Open Cup Final. A non-MLS team has not reached the final since the Rochester Raging Rhinos won the title in 1999.
