MATCH PREVIEW Led by fourth-year head coach and former Sporting Kansas City midfielder Paulo Nagamura, Sporting KC II (0-3-2, 2 points) will play for their first win of the season on Sunday when they meet El Paso Locomotive FC (1-01, 4 points) for the first time at Children’s Mercy Park. The inaugural meeting between the sides will serve as a reunion for three El Paso players who formerly competed professionally in Kansas City. Locomotive defender Mechack Jerome played two MLS seasons with Sporting KC from 2013-2014, Bryam Rebellon featured regularly for Sporting KC II in 2018, and on-loan goalkeeper Adrian Zendejas helped SKC II to consecutive Western Conference titles and USL Cup appearances in 2016 and 2017 while also serving as a backup keeper for Sporting KC at the MLS level from 2017-2019. SKC II features a youthful squad consisting of emerging professionals under USL Championship contract, Sporting KC Academy products on amateur contracts and MLS loanees from the Sporting KC first team. Homegrown Player Tyler Freeman and forward Dominik Resetar have provided the club’s two goals in the early stages of 2021, while Sporting KC goalkeeper Kendall McIntosh has earned four straight USL Championship starts on loan. Sunday is the first of two home matches in the space of four days for SKC II, who will host regional rivals FC Tulsa on June 2.
