ATLANTA (July 15, 2025) – U.S. Soccer today announced dates, kickoff times, and broadcast information for the Semifinal Round of the 2025 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup, set to take place September 16-17.
While match windows for both Semifinals have been determined, one of the penultimate round’s four slots remains up for grabs following last week’s postponement of the Philadelphia Union vs. New York Red Bulls Quarterfinal contest. That match has officially been rescheduled for Wednesday, August 13, at 7:30 p.m. ET at Subaru Park in Chester, Pa.
The victor of the Union-Red Bulls clash will face Nashville SC in the East bracket’s Semifinal on Tuesday, Sept. 16. The host of this meeting remains up in the air – the Red Bulls would welcome the Tennessean squad to Sports Illustrated Stadium in Harrison, N.J. (7:30 p.m. ET), with a win over Philadelphia, while a victorious Union side would travel to GEODIS Park in Nashville (8:00 p.m. ET).
The Semifinals conclude on Wednesday, Sept. 17, when Minnesota United FC hosts Austin FC to determine who emerges from the competition’s West bracket. Kickoff from Allianz Field in St. Paul, Minn., is set for 8:00 p.m. ET.
CBS Sports’ unprecedented coverage of U.S. Soccer’s Club Championship will continue with Paramount+ live streams of the three contests, which will also all be simulcast on CBS Sports Network.
