Indy Eleven falls short of UNTHINKABLE U.S. Open Cup miracle (vs Sporting Kansas City)

⁣April 27: Indy Eleven fans didn't know if their club had a future as they beat North Carolina FC days after their city's own Mayor dropped an MLS bombshell on them.

August 27: Indy Eleven fans show up to Sporting Kansas City's Children's Mercy Park to try to do the unthinkable: earn a CONCACAF Champions Cup qualification and a spot in the 2024 US Open Cup final!
