Nashville SC Wins First U.S. Open Cup Securing 2026 Concacaf Spot
Nashville SC captured its first-ever major trophy by defeating Austin FC 2-1 in the 2025 U.S. Open Cup final held at Austin’s Q2 Stadium. Goals from Hany Mukhtar and Sam Surridge secured the win, with Mukhtar, Nashville's foundational player and 2022 MLS MVP, solidifying his status as an all-time great in MLS through this achievement. This victory also grants Nashville a spot in the 2026 CONCACAF Champions Cup, elevating the club on a continental stage and marking the first major professional sports championship for the state of Tennessee. The U.S. Open Cup, the oldest soccer competition in the U.S. dating back to 1914, is a prestigious knockout tournament, and Nashville had to survive five elimination matches to claim the title. Head coach BJ Callaghan praised the team's commitment and representation of Nashville, highlighting the collective effort behind the success. Following the win, the club is poised to compete in the upcoming MLS Cup playoffs, with hopes for additional trophies this season.
