Ye Olde Ben Cup

The Ben Cup is a yearly rivalry between MLS foes Real Salt Lake and DC United. It was started in 2006 by two friends, both named Ben (obviously). The winner is decided based on the results of non-exhibition/friendly matches between the two teams. In the case of a tie, goal differential is used. If goal differential is also tied, then away goals are used as a second tiebreaker. If that is also even then the Ben Cup is considered a tie for that season and the previous year's winner retains the Cup.
