Sporting KC Game Notes | August 16, 2016 at Central FC | 2016-17 Scotiabank CONCACAF Champions League SPORTING KANSAS CITY NEWS AND NOTES MATCH PREVIEW: SPORTING KC AT CENTRAL FC WHAT IS THE CONCACAF CHAMPIONS LEAGUE As the 2016 MLS regular season nears the home stretch, Sporting Kansas City welcomes yet another major competition to its docket. The 2016-17 Scotiabank CONCACAF Champions League group stage kicked off a fortnight ago and resumes Tuesday when Sporting Kansas City’s faces Central FC of Trinidad and Tobago at 7 p.m. CT. The match at Ato Boldon Stadium in Couva will stream live in English on CONCACAF’s official Facebook Page, while Univision Deportes Network will air a Spanish-language telecast.

The CONCACAF Champions League is an international tournament comprised of the region’s best teams. The 2016-17 edition is the ninth under its current name and the 52nd installment of CONCACAF’s elite club competition since its founding in 1962. The current field consists of 24 teams from 12 different countries, as follows: four clubs each from the United States and Mexico; two clubs each from Costa Rica, Honduras, Guatemala, Panama, El Salvador and Trinidad and Tobago; and one club from Canada, Nicaragua, Belize and Haiti. Do the math, and you have 24 contestants battling it out for CONCACAF glory.

Sporting Kansas City is the last of five MLS teams to begin its respective Champions League campaign. FC Dallas, Portland Timbers, New York Red Bulls and Vancouver Whitecaps FC are all off to winning starts, and Manager Peter Vermes’ men will look to follow suit in Group C against the two-time defending champions of the TT Pro League.

HOW DID SPORTING KC QUALIFY FOR THE CCL?

Peter Vermes’ men punched their ticket via the 2015 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup championship. Sporting Kansas City ousted the Philadelphia Union in a gripping penalty shootout following a 1-1 draw last September to ensure their return to the Champions League following a one-year absence.

BUY TICKETS: Sporting KC’s two home games in CONCACAF Champions League The Central FC Sharks have yet to start their 2016-17 domestic league campaign and suffered a 1-0 home defeat to Vancouver in their CCL opener on Aug. 2. That result puts the impetus on Sporting Kansas City to emerge from Couva with a victory and keep pace with Whitecaps FC atop Group C.

WHO ARE THE OTHER CCL TEAMS FROM MLS?

Sporting Kansas City is one of five MLS representatives in the 2016-17 tournament. The others are the Portland Timbers (2015 MLS Cup champion), New York Red Bulls (2015 first-place finisher in the East), FC Dallas (2015 firstplace finisher in the West) and Vancouver Whitecaps FC (2015 Amway Canadian Championship winner).

Faced with multiple injuries and just three days removed from a 2-2 draw at FC Dallas, Sporting Kansas City travels to Trinidad and Tobago with roster reinforcements. Swope Park Rangers defender Amer Didic and winger Tyler Pasher signed short-term loan deals late last week, adding depth to a squad that will play five games over 15 days, four of which on the road.

WHAT IS THE TOURNAMENT FORMAT OF THE CCL?

Sporting Kansas City begins play in Group C on Tuesday. The group stage divides the 24 teams into eight groups of three and is contested in a round-robin, home-and-away, four-game format that runs from August through October. The eight group winners with then advance to the knockout round, a singleelimination format which begins with the two-legged quarterfinals in February and March 2017. The two-legged semifinals and finals are tentatively scheduled for March, April and May 2017.

Midfielders Roger Espinoza and Soni Mustivar served one-game suspensions on Saturday but will be available for selection Tuesday as Sporting Kansas City plays its first Champions League match since October 2014. Their additions bolster a team that will miss Matt Besler (MCL strain), Justin Mapp (calf strain), Tim Melia (back spasms) and Chance Myers (hamstring strain) through injury. Center back Ike Opara is also in doubt after suffering a foot injury in the 35th minute of Saturday’s draw.

The qualified teams in the knockout stage are seeded 1-8 based on their group stage results. The higher-seeded team will host the second leg, and the away goals rule is used if the aggregate score is tied through two games. If still tied, the teams will enter a penalty shootout to decide the winner.

Led by head coach Zoran Vranes, Central FC has enjoyed tremendous success since its founding in 2012. The Sharks have claimed two straight TT Pro League titles and are two-time defending champions of the CFU Club Championship, a tournament contested by the best clubs from the Caribbean Football Union. Central FC are making their second appearance in the CONCACAF Champions League, having crashed from the 2015-16 group stage last fall after finishing second behind LA Galaxy.

WHY DOES THE CHAMPIONS LEAGUE MATTER?

The 2016-17 CONCACAF Champions League winner will book a spot in the 2017 FIFA Club World Cup, an international tournament held from Dec. 6-16 in the United Arab Emirates that features winners of the 2016-17 UEFA Champions League and the 2017 Copa Libertadores. Lifting the CONCACAF Champions League title would thrust Sporting Kansas City onto the international scene like never before.

The Central FC roster includes eight players who have earned at least one cap for the Trinidad and Tobago Men’s National Team over the last 12 months. The club received a boost last week when Kenwyne Jones, a 31-year-old striker on loan from 2017 MLS expansion team Atlanta United FC, was added to its Champions League squad. Jones wears the captain’s armband for Trinidad and Tobago, having featured prominently in the English Premier League for most of the last decade with Southampton, Sunderland and Stoke City among others.

Mexican clubs have dominated the competition in recent years, winning all eight tournament under the current format since 2008-09. Sporting Kansas City has the chance to become the first MLS club to lift the CCL title, and doing so would arguably be the greatest achievement in club history. Lastly, CONCACAF announced in June that a prize money pool of $1.2 million will be doled out to the semifinalists for the 2016-17 tournament. The winning team will earn $500,000, with the runner-up earning $300,000 and the other two semifinalists taking home $200,000 each.

The 10,000-seat Ato Boldon Stadium is more than 2,800 miles southeast of Kansas City, meaning Tuesday will be Sporting KC’s furthest competitive match away from home since 2002 when the club visited W Connection, another Trinidadian outfit, in the CONCACAF Champions’ Cup.

WHAT DO WE KNOW ABOUT CENTRAL FC?

The CONCACAF Champions League is an international tournament comprised of the best teams from North America, Central America and the Caribbean. The 2016-17 group stage divides the 24 teams into eight groups of three and is contested in a round-robin, home-and-away, four-game format that runs from August through October. Sporting Kansas City punched their ticket via the 2015 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup championship, ousting the Philadelphia Union in a penalty shootout following a 1-1 draw last September.

Sporting Kansas City’s first opponent in Group C has enjoyed tremendous success since its founding in 2012. The Central FC Sharks are back-to-back champions of the TT Pro League (Trinidad and Tobago’s domestic league) and the CFU Club Championship, a tournament contested by the best clubs from the Caribbean Football Union. Central FC dropped its Champions League opener on Aug. 2, a 1-0 home defeat to Vancouver Whitecaps FC at Ato Boldon Stadium in Couva, Trinidad and Tobago. The Sharks don’t begin their domestic campaign in the TT Pro League until mid-September, making their task in Group C all the more difficult.

Both players will be available for selection Tuesday and for the remainder of the 2016-17 CONCACAF Champions League group stage. Per league rules, MLS clubs can sign players from their USL affiliate to Short Term Agreements (up to four-day contracts) for CONCACAF Champions League, U.S. Open Cup and exhibition matches. An MLS club can sign a player to a maximum of four short term agreements each season. Didic has started 14 of 21 USL appearances during his rookie campaign in the United Soccer League. The 21-year-old center back has thrived over the last two months, earning USL Team of the Week honors three times since June 27 while starting each of the club’s previous eight games. Born in Bosnia and raised in Edmonton, Canada, Didic played four years of college soccer at Baker University in nearby Baldwin City, Kansas, where he was a two-time NAIA All-American. As a senior last fall, the 6-foot-4 defender was an NSCAA All-American and the Heart of America Athletic Conference Most Valuable Player. Pasher has netted three goals in 17 USL matches since signing for the Rangers in March. The 22-year-old Canadian has been a versatile piece to head coach Marc Dos Santos’ roster, featuring at left wing and left back throughout the season. He netted both goals in a 2-1 win over Tulsa Roughnecks FC on May 14 and scored the winner as SPR beat Saint Louis FC 1-0 on July 2. Pasher began his youth career with Newcastle United in England before joining Toronto FC’s Academy in 2010. A former member of Canada’s U-17 and U-20 national teams, he has previously played for Finnish side PS Kemi (2013), NPSL outfit Lansing United (2014) and the USL’s Pittsburgh Riverhounds (2015).. 2016-17 CHAMPIONS LEAGUE GROUP STANDINGS Group A 1.

He ended 2015 with nine clean sheets and a 15-8-5 record in all competitions as Sporting KC made its fifth straight playoff appearance. He also made two saves in a penalty shootout win over the Philadelphia Union in the 2015 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup Final. Among MLS goalkeepers, Melia finished third in 2015 with a 72.6 save percentage while also ranking in the top 10 in wins, shutouts and goals against

average. He was a six-time member of the MLSsoccer.com Team of the Week and became the first goalkeeper in MLS history to record six shutouts in his first nine league matches for a new team. After a four-year college career with NCAA Division III program Lynn University (New York), Melia began his professional career in 2008 with the Rochester Rhinos of the USL First Division. After stints with Real Salt Lake and Chivas USA, he spent the latter half of 2014 as a League Pool Goalkeeper, earning emergency call-ups from Sporting KC, FC Dallas and D.C. United.
