Orlando City SC demolished Atlanta United 4–1 in the US Open Cup, with the hosts' clinical finishing proving decisive despite the visitors' shot volume. Tiago Souza netted twice for Orlando, while Griffin Dorsey added a third as the home side converted their opportunities ruthlessly, registering 10 shots on target from 13 attempts. Atlanta, deploying an identical 3–5–2 formation, struggled to translate their 16 shots into clear-cut chances, managing only four on target; Emmanuel Latte Lath's goal proved a mere consolation. Orlando's goalkeeper made a decisive contribution, maintaining a 75% save percentage and conceding just 1.0 post-shot expected goals above model, effectively shutting down Atlanta's attacking threat. The gulf in clinical finishing separated the sides decisively. Orlando City advances with momentum intact.
