Quick side note......Disney will be offering a bundle in November for $12.99/month that will include Disney+, ESPN+, & Hulu.... ESPN+ on it's own is only $4.99/month......rumor is that starting next year the Bunesliga will also be exclusively on ESPN+ in the US.
They have to sell their platform of the future somehow... Can't just move all major events back to the old chans.
I mean don't get me wrong, I have ESPN+ I just figured they could simulcast both on there and ESPN2 for maximum coverage....you know they love them some Atlanta home game.
The Canadian semis finish up on Wednesday night. Toronto is in good shape. The other pairing could get interesting. Calgary is at home and already has an away goal despite trailing in the aggregate. 2019 Canadian Championship Home team first, times are ET Streaming coverage is available by subscription via OneSoccer.

2019 U.S. Open Cup - Final Atlanta United vs. Minnesota United Mercedes-Benz Stadium — Atlanta August 27 — 8:00 PM ET ESPN+ (Streaming only) MLSsoccer.com preview here. ATLUTD.com preview here. MNUFC preview here.
Standing in 5 Points station 2+ hours til kick off and a decent number of fans here, like a usual game. AUFC beat reporter Doug Roberson reporting the USSF expects to set a record for tickets distributed & attendance tonight, though I've not heard if capacity will be above the 42.5 mark.
An hour before kickoff and the batch of MN faithful are taking their spots. Looks like they'll fill their allotted sections. Met a few coming in and they're a nice bunch. Hope they enjoy their time here... apart from the outcome of course.
1st bad sign - In stadium announcer not the usual for Atlanta, which sucks cause Steve Craig is perfect. Also, lines are long for filing in cause we have to use phones instead of badges to show tickets.
Dude, you're fans have always been class and now they have a venue to match it. F&$# that noise. You guys have earned your franchise several times over.
My ESPN app just informed me that no reigning MLS champ has ever won the Open Cup before. I'm frankly shocked by that. Hoping for another ATL first.
I either want a Minnesota win or Atlanta to absolutely hammer Minnesota. Don’t want no gritty ATL win.
The lack of effort on the part of the Loon's #19 there in the 8th minute was absolutely shocking, for a final.
