JSON to XML using C# serializers

Normally I open XML stream with File.OpenRead(), deserialize it to class object like so:

var xml = new XmlParse();
using(XmlReader reader = XmlReader.Create(File.OpenRead(@"C:/test/file.xml"))
{
    XmlSerializer serializer = new XmlSerializer(typeof(XmlParse));
    xml = (XmlParse) serializer.Deserialize(reader);
}
// xml is now deserialized...

then I serialize this deserialized object to JSON just like that:

var json = JsonSerializer.SerializeToString(xml, typeof(XmlParse));

but it's producing a json file with the same scheme as xml file, and that's bothering me.

I want to 'reserialize' it from XML to JSON using TWO different 'parsing classes' with:

public static string Reserialize < XmlType, JsonType > (string path) {

    var stream = File.OpenRead(path);

    XmlSerializer serializer = new XmlSerializer(typeof(XmlType));

    XmlType i;

    using(XmlReader reader = XmlReader.Create(stream)) {
        i = (XmlType) serializer.Deserialize(reader);
    }

    string j;

    // (System.InvalidCastException)
    j = JsonSerializer.SerializeToString(i, typeof(JsonType));

    return j;

}

Sample JSON I get by using the same Class as XML:

{
  "Time": "1406374539043",
  "Events": [
    {
      "Match": [
        {
          "Date": "2014-07-26 21:29",
          "GameId": 387195098,
          "Type": "Soccer",
          "League": "Brazil Ser A",
          "Live": "No",
          "Matchup": [
            {
              "Team": [
                {
                  "Name": "Criciuma",
                  "RotationId": 2601,
                  "Field": "Home"
                                },
                {
                  "Name": "Vitoria BA",
                  "RotationId": 2602,
                  "Field": "Visiting"
                                },
                {
                  "Name": "Draw",
                  "RotationId": 2603,
                  "Field": "Draw"
                                }
                            ]
                        }
                    ]
                }
            ]
        }
    ]
}

Desired JSON output:

{
  "Time": "1406374539043",
  "Matches": [
    {
      "Date": "2014-07-26 21:29",
      "GameId": 387195098,
      "Type": "Soccer",
      "League": "Brazil Ser A",
      "Live": "No",
      "Teams": [
        {
          "Name": "Criciuma",
          "RotationId": 2601,
          "Field": "Home"
                },
        {
          "Name": "Vitoria BA",
          "RotationId": 2602,
          "Field": "Visiting"
                },
        {
          "Name": "Draw",
          "RotationId": 2603,
          "Field": "Draw"
                }
            ]
        }
    ]
}

Using this class to parse JSON (XML class is much different & has more nodes):

{
    public class Json
    {
        public string Time { get; set; }
        public List<Matches> Matches { get; set; }
    }

    public class Matches
    {
        public string Date { get; set; }
        public int GameId { get; set; }
        public string Type { get; set; }
        public string League { get; set; }
        public string Live { get; set; }
        public List<Teams> Teams { get; set; }
    }

    public class Teams
    {
        public string Name { get; set; }
        public int RotationId { get; set; }
        public string Field { get; set; }
    }
}

(I know it won't work like that, I just simplified this class so it's cleaner and readable)

What would you suggest? How do I convert xml to json with a different style?
