Nashville vs Orlando City: Who Will Reign Supreme in the US Open Cup?

Published on May 21, 2025 at 11:18 PM|By Carlsen George

The clash between Nashville SC and Orlando City SC in the Round of 16 of the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup promised to be a fiercely contested match between two top Eastern Conference teams in MLS. Both clubs, boasting near-identical records (24 points each), have a history of close encounters, including playoff battles, with victories for both sides.

This game, played on May 21, 2025, at Orlando's Inter&Co Stadium, held significant weight. For Nashville, it was a chance to continue their journey in the single-elimination national competition, having previously defeated Chattanooga Red Wolves. Orlando, meanwhile, aimed to extend their impressive 12-match unbeaten streak. Lineups were released before kickoff, hinting at a tight and tactically interesting contest.

The stakes were high: a spot in the US Open Cup quarterfinals against either Charlotte FC or D.C. United. Both teams were therefore fully committed to giving their all on the pitch.
