New England Revolution Set for Open Cup Clash Against Rhode Island FC
PAWTUCKET, R.I. (May 7, 2025) – The New England Revolution gear up for an exciting Round of 32 matchup in the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup against Rhode Island FC tonight at Centreville Bank Stadium, kicking off at 7:30 PM ET, available for viewing on Paramount+.
