Spanish-speaking fans in the United States will be treated to one of the most interesting and anticipated definitions of the season in that country, as Telemundo and U.S. Soccer have signed a deal to see the final stages of the U.S. Open Cup being covered in Spanish by the network's linear channels and streaming platforms.
Telemundo's coverage of the competition will kick off on August 23 in an electric clash between FC Cincinnati and Inter Miami. The Orange and Blue are the best team in the current MLS season, while Inter Miami are the hottest team in the U.S. thanks to Lionel Messi's arrival. Starting at 7 p.m. ET, this will be the first game to be covered by this deal, with Telemundo and Peacock airing and streaming the clash.
Hours later, the game between Houston Dynamo and Real Salt Lake will hand out the second ticket to the 2023 US Open Cup final. The clash is set to take place in Houston, with Universo and Peacock handling coverage of the game starting at 9:30 p.m. ET.
The teams that go through to the final will have to mark September 27 on their calendars, the date in which the title clash has been scheduled to be played. Peacock will be in charge of streaming the game live, while broadcast information for the game on Telemundo is set to be released at a later date.
