Pat Noonan factored in all three goals as the New England Revolution won its first-ever cup championship with a 3-2 victory against FC Dallas at Pizza Hut Park on Wednesday night. Noonan scored the game’s first goal and assisted on Taylor Twellman’s go-ahead goal and Wells Thompson’s game-winning goal to help the Revs lift the U.S. Open Cup for the first time ever.

The victory came in New England’s second overall trip to the Open Cup final - and fifth cup final overall - having also advancing to the title match in 2001. The win was also the first championship at Pizza Hut Park, having lost both MLS Cup 2005 and MLS Cup 2006 at Pizza Hut Park.

The U.S. Open Cup is America’s oldest cup competition and is considered the U.S. Soccer Federation’s domestic championship. The tournament is open to soccer teams from all levels of soccer in the U.S. and includes qualifying rounds for amateur and lower-level professional clubs. This season, 40 teams qualified for the main bracket, with the Revs winning through all the way to the championship.
