"Out of respect to the last standing amateur team in the 2017 US Open Cup, we will be naming a stairwell after them in our new multi-million dollar training facility that we are building with our 100 million dollar surplus," stated President of US Soccer Sunil Gulati.

The Nutmeg News reached out to Christos FC players for comment, however they failed to respond in a timely fashion as they prepared to start on a new GoFundMe and charity drive to raise enough money for the team to pay off their previous travel to Chicago as well as pay for their upcoming travel to Washington D.C. from Baltimore to take on D.C. United.
