Sacramento Republic FC President previews match vs. San Jose

Sacramento Republic FC general manager Todd Dunivant joined The Carmichael Dave Show with Jason Ross to preview Tuesday night’s massive Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup match against the San Jose Earthquakes of the MLS.

A Republic FC win would push them past the Round of 16 and into the quarterfinals.

Dunivant joined Dave to preview tonight’s action at Sutter Health Park in Sacramento, where a packed house is expected:

Topics Discussed

• The Republic enters play as the USL’s leading team in the Western Conference (5-5-0, 20 points)
• Is it a “championship or bust” mentality for Sacramento?
• “That’s where we’re at as a club… We feel like this is the strongest team that we’ve had.”
• Dunivant says that the Republic FC loves the U.S. Open Cup because of the “David vs. Goliath” setting of USL vs. MLS
• How motivated is the club to get the stadium issue resolved?
• “We have never stopped working on this and will continue to do so until it’s done.”
