Oakland Roots attacking midfielder Memo Diaz: ‘I don’t think we’ll be looking to sit back that much on them’
OAKLAND, CALIFORNIA – SEPTEMBER 3: Oakland Roots Soccer Club fans cheer during a United Soccer League game against San Antonio FC at Laney College soccer field in Oakland, Calif., on Saturday, Sept. 3, 2022. The Roots is looking for a new stadium to fit its growing fan base. Matches at Laney College average 4,300 fans a night, with a maximum capacity of 5,500 while multiple games have sold out, said Roots spokesman Tommy Hodul.
The Open Cup, which started in 1914, is a single-elimination competition in which teams ranging from professional to amateur level compete for a trophy named in honor of the late Lamar Hunt, a soccer pioneer and former owner of the NFL’s Kansas City Chiefs.The David vs. Goliath matchup between the Bay Area teams could have added spice because a fan group from another Oakland team, the A’s, is expected make its presence known in the stadium.
The Roots, who fired coach Noah Delgado on April 28, are now led by Gavin Glinton, a former Earthquakes player and Livermore native. Glinton is obviously familiar with the A’s situation, but that’s not his priority. San Jose is last in the MLS standings but is coming off its most impressive showing of the season, a 3-1 victory LAFC on Saturday at Levi’s Stadium.
The Roots aren’t likely to follow that formula. In addition to the prolific Diaz, the Oakland team also features Johnny Rodriguez and Jeciel Cedeno .
