El Farolito: Working stiffs by day and soccer stars by night​

A construction worker, an electrical engineer, a delivery driver: These are the roles that define the players of El Farolito. By day, they grind to make ends meet. By night, they flip the switch to compete with the best, beating professional teams in a tournament that traditionally casts them as nothing more than underdogs. El Farolito, the taquería club rooted in San Francisco’s Mission District, is now the lone amateur team left in the U.S. Open Cup.
