BOXSCORES 
Every game on the schedule had meaning this weekend. All 8 teams in Majors Cup were eligible to advance by merely winning their game this weekend. However, three of the four games were decided rather quickly so we'll start with the most competitive match-up.
Capital District 3
D.C. Forever 2
D.C. Forever 2
The scoring started on Saturday afternoon when Montero fired a 30 yard shot over the keepers head to give the Gunners the early 1-0 lead. This lead was short lived when Joseph drove in the equalized. Then in the 87 minute of his game he put in his 2nd goal of the match to give D.C. Forever a 2-1 lead. In the nightcap Capital District saw Angel score a goal that would not count with him sitting on the teams bench and the score remained 2-1. On Sunday, both clubs had an assortment of players left available. Jaime Moreno's goal in the first half tied it up for the Gunners, but a 2-2 score would not be enough to 
advance the team into the Majors Cup Semi Finals. D.C. Forever still held the tiebreaker for second place in their group. Then in the 43rd minute Ryan Johnson put one in the net but it was called off due to offsides. The score remained 2-2. Johnson would not be denied when in the 73rd minute he put in what proved to be the
game winner.

Garden State 1
Conor Casey put the Saints up on top early when he scored on Wednesday night, but it was Jeff Cunningham and David Ferriera that put this game to bed when they added another 4 points. The Kickers were already making due without Schelotto and were held at bay with a single point from Ekpo.
Columbus Crew 4
Los Angeles Galaxy 0
Los Angeles Galaxy 0
The Crew and Galaxy really did play against each other on Saturday and any way you score it, the Crew were better on this day. In reality Columbus won 2-0. In BSL scoring the Crew won 4-0, and the game was not even that close.
F.C. Dallas 7
Chicago Fire 2
The Hoops finished off the group stage undefeated and with the most impressive stats. Their offense is impressive and should be considered the favorite to win the Majors Cup. Chicago had a good game but will not be advancing.
