St Louis City has had a spectacular expansion season as they currently sit atop the Western Conference with six wins in their first nine games, including a five-game winning start to the season. They now face a new challenge as they face off against Omaha in their first-ever knockout match-up.
Union Omaha, which plays in the third division of American soccer, advanced by beating El Paso 2-0 on Wednesday. In last year’s tournament, they beat two MLS teams, Chicago and Minnesota, and reached the quarterfinals, the first third-division team to do that since 2013.
