Deja Vu or should I say Deja DOOP
Due to lightning in the area, warmups ahead of our U.S. Open Cup Quarterfinal have been delayed.
Fans inside Subaru Park should shelter in place along the stadium concourse.
We'll provide updates as they become available.

HALFTIME | Union up two at the end of the first half. It's looking like some quality soccer so far for the Union.

WEATHER DELAY | The rain is really bad. The field is flooded. The lightning is still happening. Wouldn't be a surprise if they postpone this game.

HT goal stands! Union up 1-0
Credit to Andrew Rick who found Sullivan off that restart. Baribo with a typical Union striker goal right in front of net. Massive momentum boost going into the locker room #DOOP

45’ GOALLLL TAI BARIBO!!
Off a restart in their own end, Sullivan finds Baribo for the opening goal.
May be offsides though… #DOOP

Carnell was just physically confronted by St Louis striker João Klauss following the final whistle.
Carnell had just completed handshakes with St Louis technical staff before Klauss arrived and gave him a bump and a few words. No idea what that's about #DOOP

FT Union beat St. Louis in their 1st ever MLS match against each other 1-0 behind Glavinovich's 1st career MLS goal. Glavinovich's 8th minute header was assisted by Wagner. St. Louis had not conceded a goal prior to tonight
Wagner leads MLS with 5 assists on the year. Great bounce back win #DOOP

I don’t care what you say. If you think it’s okay to throw trash on the field or at opposing players because you don’t like a call — you are not a true fan. You are a fair weather fan. Shame on you for teaching kids it’s okay to pout and throw things because you didn’t like a call. #DOOP
