SAN JOSE EARTHQUAKES vs SPORTING KANSAS CITY AVAYA STADIUM, San Jose, Calif. September 24, 2016 (WEEK 29, MLS Game #300) 7:30 p.m. PT (KMCI-38 / SKCTVN; CSN-CA+) A crucial meeting between teams just on either side of the red line in the Western Conference is ahead when the San Jose Earthquakes and Sporting Kansas City meet in the first of two meetings down the stretch when the clubs face off Saturday evening at Avaya Stadium. The Earthquakes come into the game six points below the red line – but with two games in hand – returning home after a scoreless draw at the Colorado Rapids last weekend. Sporting are right on the red line, sitting in sixth place in the conference, hitting the road after back-to-back draws at Children’s Mercy Park, last a 2-2 result with the LA Galaxy last Sunday afternoon.

Chris Wondolowski scored the game’s lone goal from a penalty kick in the 59th minute as the Quakes claimed the victory April 24 at Avaya Stadium. San Jose has won the last three meetings between the teams, including both encounters a season ago.  The first meeting victory for San Jose was the first win for the road team in the series since 2004, when San Jose won at Arrowhead Stadium. The Quakes victory also snapped an eight-game home winning streak for Sporting vs. the Quakes.  Kansas City has not won in San Jose since Aug. 16, 2000. The Quakes have won 10 of the 15 meetings since in northern California, with five draws.  Coaches record: Peter Vermes vs. SJ: P11 W4 L6 D1 … Dominic Kinnear vs. KC: P29 W12 L7 D10 LAST MEETING (MLS): 4/24: SJ 1, KC 0 (Wondolowski 59)  The game's lone goal came after SKC goalkeeper Tim Melia took down Simon Dawkins in the box, and referee Jair Marrufo pointed to the spot. Chris Wondolowski converted the resulting penalty just before the hour mark.  Quakes goalkeeper David Bingham was credited with five saves in keeping the clean sheet.  SAN JOSE EARTHQUAKES (4-4-2): David Bingham - Marvell Wynne, Victor Bernardez, Andres Imperiale, Shaun Francis - Alberto Quintero (Tommy Thompson 90), Fatai Alashe, Anibal Godoy, Simon Dawkins (Shea Salinas 77) - Chris Wondolowski, Quincy Amarikwa (Adam Jahn 71).  SPORTING KANSAS CITY (4-1-2-3): Tim Melia - Saad Abdul-Salaam, Nuno Andre Coelho, Matt Besler (Ike Opara 75), Amadou Dia (Diego Rubio 86) - Lawrence Olum - Benny Feilhaber, Roger Espinoza - Brad Davis, Dom Dwyer, Graham Zusi. SAN JOSE EARTHQUAKES The San Jose Earthquakes had their winless run extended to five games, reaching a scoreless draw with the Colorado Rapids on Saturday evening at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park. The Quakes are in eighth place in the Western Conference with 34 points from 28 games. LAST MATCH  Rapids goalkeeper Tim Howard made three saves in keeping the clean sheet, his brilliant kick save from a Fatai Alashe just before halftime stopping what was the best scoring opportunity for either side.  Quakes goalkeeper David Bingham was credited with two saves for the shutout.

MLS GAME INFORMATION



Quakes head coach Dominic Kinnear made no changes to the team that reached a 1-1 draw with Seattle Sounders FC at Avaya Stadium.  SAN JOSE EARTHQUAKES (4-4-1-1): David Bingham - Marvell Wynne, Victor Bernardez, Andres Imperiale, Jordan Stewart - Cordell Cato (Quincy Amarikwa 73), Fatai Alashe, Darwin Ceren, Alberto Quintero (Shea Salinas 58) - Simon Dawkins (Tommy Thompson 84) - Chris Wondolowski. TEAM NEWS  The Quakes had their winless run extended to five matches with the tie with the Rapids, their third draw in that streak.  “We’re still in it,” said Earthquakes head coach Dominic Kinnear. “If we would’ve walked away with nothing, it’s a bit damning. When we look at the standings, we have some games in hand on some people, but games in hand are only good if you win those games. It would have been a great lift for us if we did [win].”  It was a second scoreless draw for the Quakes during the five-game winless stretch, the third time they were shut out at the attacking end in that run.  “The chances were out there. It is surprising the game was 0-0, but that is the way the game ended and we walk away with a tie,” Kinnear said. “It was a tough place to play; they have been playing well all year. For us, in our position, we need to start winning some games.”  Kinnear maintained an unchanged team for a sixth time this season, last keeping the same first XI in four consecutive games July 22-Aug. 12.  It was a second consecutive match with Simon Dawkins filling an underneath forward role, with Chris Wondolowski as the spearhead in attack.  “We started passing the ball better and most of our passes were getting forward rather than side to side or backwards. We were maintaining pressure on ourselves that way. I thought in the second half we did a better job of finding Simon [Dawkins] and Chris [Wondolowski] earlier,” said Kinnear.  Said Wondolowski: “I thought as a whole we played well at times. We could have been a bit more clinical in breaking them down, especially in the final third, but there are some things we can consider went well.”  Quincy Amarikwa came on a substitute for the final 17 minutes, his first appearance after missing the last two matches, after he was forced off injured in the first half of the New England game on Aug. 24.  “[Quincy] is just getting back to fitness,” Kinnear said. “He’s probably about 30 minutes fit, especially in this altitude. At Kansas City, I think we’ll be adding some more minutes onto that.”  Tommy Thompson came on as a substitute for the final six minutes, his first league outing since July 22, his second over the last 14 league matches. SPORTING KANSAS CITY Sporting Kansas City extended their home undefeated run with a second consecutive late draw, playing to a 2-2 result with the LA Galaxy on Sunday afternoon at Children’s Mercy Park. Sporting are in sixth place in the Western Conference with 40 points from 30 games. LAST MATCH  The Galaxy hit for the opener on seven minutes. Sebastian Lletget played Emmanuel Boateng into space along the left flank, and Alan Gordon was positioned at the far post to nod home the ensuing cross.  Sporting pulled level five minutes into the second half. Dom Dwyer settled the ball on the right edge of the box and clipped a delightful ball to the back post, where Jacob Peterson slipped in to nod home.  The home side took the lead in the 69th minute. A quick free kick from Benny Feilhaber put Saad AbdulSalaam alone behind the Galaxy back line and he drove a low cross into the goalmouth for Dwyer to finish into a gaping net.  But the Galaxy were level in the 76th minute through a fairy-tale goal. Just two minutes after being introduced as a substitute, Landon Donovan ran onto a cutback pass from Robbie Rogers and tucked an impressive strike into the far left corner past KC 'keeper Tim Melia, extending his lead atop the all-time MLS scoring charts with his 145th regular season goal, his first goal since coming off of a two-year retirement.  Sporting manager Peter Vermes made two changes to the team that reached a 3-3 draw with the Houston Dynamo at Children’s Mercy Park. Tim Melia came in between the posts in place of Alec Kann, and Jimmy Medranda started in the back four for Nuno Andre Coelho.  SPORTING KANSAS CITY (4-1-2-3): Tim Melia - Saad Abdul-Salaam, Kevin Ellis, Matt Besler, Jimmy Medranda (Nuno Andre Coelho 87) - Soni Mustivar - Benny Feilhaber, Roger Espinoza - Jacob Peterson, Dom Dwyer, Brad Davis (Diego Rubio 64). TEAM NEWS  Sporting completed a two-game homestand with a pair of draws following the result with the Galaxy, the second consecutive match where the visitors scored the equalizer in the final quarter-hour plus.  “It’s disappointing, for sure. Especially with the way we controlled the game. We owned it. When we scored, the momentum shifted. … We go up 2-1 and it hurts to give up those points when there was not that much time left.

You have to be able to close the game out at home. To climb back like we did is great, but to allow them to come back was sad,” said SKC manager Peter Vermes. Sporting did extend their home undefeated streak to eight matches, with the two draws following six home wins in a row, the eight-game run the longest since a club-record 12-game home undefeated streak last season. “I think it’s really poor on our part. We talk all week about what happened last week, we try to correct things and it’s more of the same stuff. I hope people realize that’s probably four points dropped that very well could cost us the playoffs,” said Benny Feilhaber. “So now we have to get a bunch of results on the road. It’s extremely concerning and disappointing of our squad to give up easy points like that.” Jacob Peterson scored for a second consecutive match, increasing his single-season career-high to six goals this year. Five of his goals have come in the last eight games, dating back to July 24. “[Jake]’s been great. He his finding his places on the field. I have always said that the one thing about Jake is he is probably our best guy on the field in terms of movement off the ball. The one thing is that guys are finding him with his movement. He’s been clinical and he’s been big time for us,” Vermes said. Dom Dwyer netted his 14th goal of the season, now sitting in a tie for fifth place in the MLS Golden Boot standings. his second consecutive game with a goal and his sixth goal over the last eight matches. Dwyer has scored 48 goals over the last three seasons. Dwyer also assisted on a goal, the second time in his MLS career he scored a goal and added an assist in the same match, both this season (previously: April 9 vs. Red Bulls). Benny Feilhaber collected his ninth assist of the season, a second consecutive game with an assist, his fifth assist over the last seven matches. Feilhaber has played a part in six of SKC’s last 10 goals, dating back to July 31. Tim Melia returned between the posts following a five-match absence with a back injury. Alec Kann played the five matches in his stead, SKC recording a 1-2-2 mark, scoring seven goals and conceding 10. “We had a lot of possession. We created some chances. Sometimes I got frustrated that I wasn’t able to get the spots in certain spots that I’m used to getting it in. I think that’s normal and I’m not too worried about the offensive side of things. We created some good opportunities, got two goals – obviously could have gotten a couple more – and didn’t do it,” Feilhaber said. “But we had the lead 3-2 last week, 2-1 this week against teams that you are fighting for to get into the playoffs, and you are at home and not able to close it down, that’s team defense. It hasn’t been good enough. We haven’t been able to fix it and that’s a big problem.” Diego Rubio came on as a substitute for the final 26 minutes, his fourth appearance off the substitutes’ bench over the last nine matches, coming into a wide midfield role. “Since we had so much of the ball, he was going to play as a second forward with the way he was tucked inside. It seemed like a good idea at the time. We were starting to die out a little bit in a couple different positions and we needed to keep the attack going. We felt like were going to get chances and he was going to find some stuff,” Vermes said.

LAST MLS MATCH Earthquakes 0, Colorado Rapids 0; Sept. 17, 2016; DSG Park, Commerce City, CO The San Jose Earthquakes earned a point on the road against the Colorado Rapids with a scoreless draw at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park. Earthquakes goalkeeper David Bingham earned his seventh shutout of the season. Both teams saw chances in the first half. In the 24th minute, Dominique Badji was on a break away for the Rapids and found himself up against Bingham who pushed the ball away, forcing Badji to make a wide shot. Defender Victor Bernardez was close to scoring his second goal of the season 35th minute when he shot from outside the 18-yard box, but the ball sailed just over the crossbar. The Earthquakes’ best chance in the first half came in the 41st minute after Ceren’s long cross found Chris Wondolowski’s head, which the forward used to pass the ball to Fatai Alashe. The midfielder shot at Colorado’s goal, causing keeper Tim Howard make a diving save. With the game scoreless at the half, both teams looked to capitalize in the second.

#PANAMANIACS The San Jose Earthquakes dynamic duo of Anibal Godoy and Alberto quintero, colllectively known as the #Panamaniacs, have quickly become fan favorites in San Jose. With their aggressive defending and flair in the attack, the #Panamaniacs have made the Quakes a more versatile and dangerous team on both sides of the ball.

Leadership Anibal Godoy has led San Jose to a 12-6-11 record since joining the team in August of 2015.

For Club and Country Godoy and quintero have made 140 combined appearances for the Panama National Team, scoring ﬁve goals.

Contribution Alberto quintero is currently tied for the team lead in assists with four and is tied for second on the team with three goals.

DAvE’S SAvES Quakes goalkeeper David Bingham has had a meteoric rise to stardom over the past two years. After making just four starts in his first four professional seasons, Bingham has not only burst onto the scene as one of the best young keepers in the league, but also garnered attention from the U.S. National Team. Among the League’s Best Bingham’s name is sprinkled all over the MLS record books already in just his second season as the Quakes starter. Among all keepers in league history, he currently ranks fifth in saves percentage (75.4) and tied for fourth in goals against average (1.05). International Stage Bingham made his ﬁrst-ever appearance for the U.S. National Team on Feb. 5, 2016, earning a 1-0 shutout victory against Canada.

Immediate Impact Since taking over as the starter in 2015, Bingham has allowed just 68 goals in 62 starts (1.10 GAA) while keeping 19 clean sheets.

Formidable Fortress In 28 starts at Avaya Stadium, Bingham has allowed only three more total goals (17) than he has shutouts (14).

THE CHIP In Week 2 of the Major League Soccer season, Earthquakes forward quincy Amarikwa scored an astounding goal against the defending MLS Cup champion Portland Timbers to help the home side earn a 2-1 victory. Catching goalkeeper Adam Kwarasey off his line, Amarikwa launched a 40-yard chip up and over the net minder before dropping into the top corner of the goal. The ensuing media frenzy caused quite a stir around soccer, both domestically and internationally.

Amarikwaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wonder-strike was selected as the top play on SportsCenterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Top-10

The Chip was named the Soccer By Ives MLS Midseason Goal of the Year

QUAKES CAUSING QUAKES Last March, in conjunction with Avaya Stadium’s opening, the San Jose Earthquakes and the U.S Geological Survey announced that a seismograph had been installed on-site to provide better characterization of how ground motion varies from one location to another during earthquakes. The seismograph, which is used to detect small natural quakes, is sensitive enough to record ground movement from raucous crowd activity at Earthquakes home games.

After collaboration with USGS, the data from NetQuakes has finally been revealed. Below is the top-10 most seismic moments in Avaya Stadium history, measured by approximating the kinetic energy in the ground for a given 15-second period. To put it in laymen’s terms, when the Quakes score and fans go ballistic, these are the 10 moments in the stadium’s short-but-sweet existence that caused the most ground movement. 1. [0.9251] Sanna Nyassi tallies lone goal in 1-0 thriller against Vancouver; April 11, 2015.

4. [0.5654] Quincy Amarikwa converts ‘The Chip’ in 2-1 win against Portland Timbers; March 13, 2016. 5. [0.5205] Adam Jahn tallies equalizer in 1-1 draw with D.C. United; April 2, 2016. 6. [0.4978] Matias Perez Garcia scores game-winning goal against RSL; Sept. 27, 2015. 7. [0.4849] Shea Salinas scores game-winning goal in 1-0 win against LA Galaxy; Aug. 28, 2015. 8. [0.4810] Chris Wondolowski nets equalizer in 1-1 draw with Vancouver Whitecaps FC; Oct. 3, 2015.

2. [0.9147] Simon Dawkins’ goal lifts 9-man Quakes to 2-1 win against Toronto FC; July 16, 2016. 3. [0.5853] Anibal Godoy’s goal lifts San Jose to crucial 1-0 win against Sporting KC; Oct. 16, 2015.

9. [0.4343] Fatai Alashe scores inaugural goal at Avaya Stadium; March 22, 2015. 10. [0.4248] Shea Salinas seals 2-0 win against Columbus Crew SC; May 16, 2015.

#SJvSKC: BY THE NUMBERS

A pair of MLS charter members square off Saturday in a pivotal Western Conference Clash at Avaya Stadium. Sporting KC (11-12-7, 40 points) visits the San Jose Earthquakes (7-8-13, 34 points) with hopes of snapping an 18-game road winless streak in the series dating back to 2001. Kansas City last won in San Jose on Aug. 16, 2000, but the Earthquakes have collected 13 wins and five draws in home meetings ever since (including playoffs). Sporting KC’s 18-game road winless skid against San Jose is the longest such streak in club history. Since 2004, the home team in the fixture is 18-1-2 across all competitions. Sporting KC has lost five of its last six games in San Jose by a 1-0 scoreline dating back to 2009. The Earthquakes have won three straight in the series, outscoring Kansas City 7-0 over the stretch. San Jose swept the 2015 regular season series with a pair of wins, including a resounding 5-0 victory at Children’s Mercy Park. Chris Wondolowski and Cordell Cato each bagged a brace, while Anibal Godoy scored his first career MLS goal. Sporting KC’s inaugural visit to Avaya Stadium last October resulted in a 1-0 defeat, with Godoy scoring in the 47th minute. The first matchup of 2016 saw San Jose prevail 1-0 on April 24 thanks to Wondolowski’s 59thminute penalty kick. Saturday is the second of three meetings between the sides this year. Sporting KC will host the Earthquakes at Children’s Mercy Park in the regular season finale on Oct. 23, one of 10 MLS matches to kick off simultaneously on Decision Day. San Jose holds a narrow edge in the all-time regular season series with a 24-21-7 record, including a 16-4-6 mark at home. Of the previous 52 regular season matches between the clubs, 36 were played from 1996-2004 when they met four times a year in the Western Conference. #SJvSKC: Recent Meetings (San Jose leads 24-21-7 in regular season)

Sporting KC Game Notes | Sept. 24, 2016 at San Jose Earthquakes | SportingKC.com/Game-Notes ROAD WOES

SPORTING KANSAS CITY NEWS AND NOTES JOYA JOINS SPORTING KC

Sporting KC has struggled mightily on its travels over the last several months. The club is winless in 12 straight league games dating back to mid-April, one shy of tying the club’s longest road winless streak in the regular season during the non-shootout era (2000-present). Kansas City went 13 road games without a win during the 2008 campaign. Across all competitions, Sporting KC has failed to win in regulation in 16 straight road games. The club needed extra time to win at Minnesota United FC in the U.S. Open Cup on June 15. Their last win away from Children’s Mercy Park came on April 9 — a 2-0 result against the New York Red Bulls.

Sporting KC announced that the club had signed midfielder Benji Joya ahead of last Thursday’s MLS roster freeze deadline. Joya will be added to the Sporting KC roster pending receipt of his International Transfer Certificate. A native of San Jose, California, Joya signed for Mexican powerhouse Santos Laguna in 2011 at age 18. He quickly progressed through the club’s youth ranks and made his Liga MX debut with the senior team in September 2012. Santos Laguna loaned Joya to the Chicago Fire in 2014, where he started nine of 12 regular season appearances. The midfielder scored a goal just one minute into his MLS debut on March 9, coming off the bench in a 3-2 loss at Chivas USA. Joya spent most of 2015 and 2016 on loan at Club Necaxa in the Mexican second division.

Sporting KC was the league’s best road team from 2012-2014, going 28-26-14 while winning seven more away games than any other team. The side regressed in 2015 with a 4-9-4 road mark and has continued to slip this year, going 2-8-4.

At the international level, Joya featured extensively for the United States U-20s. He captained the side to a second-place finish at the 2013 CONCACAF U-20 Championship and was a member of the U.S. squad at the 2013 FIFA U-20 World Cup in Turkey. He also made four appearances for the U.S. U-23s. Sporting Kansas City announced that the club has signed 22-year-old midfielder Benji Joya ahead of today’s MLS roster freeze deadline. Joya will be added to the Sporting Kansas City roster pending receipt of his International Transfer Certificate.

San Jose has had Sporting KC’s number in home games for the better part of the last two decades. Kansas City is winless in 18 league games at San Jose dating back to 2001 (including playoffs), the second longest road winless streak against a single opponent in MLS history. The New York Red Bulls went winless in 20 straight games against the New England Revolution from 2002 to 2014.

FEILHABER FANTASTIC

It would have been hard for Benny Feilhaber to replicate a 2015 season that saw him set MLS career-highs with 10 goals and 15 assists. And while 31-year-old hasn’t been as prolific this campaign, he’s still been pretty darn good. Feilhaber has stayed within touching distance of New York Red Bulls’ Sacha Kljestan for most combined goals and assists from MLS midfielders since the start of 2015.

SAAD HAPPY TO ASSIST

Sporting KC right back Saad Abdul-Salaam is tied for second among MLS defenders with six assists. He tallied his sixth helper of the season in Sporting KC’s 2-2 draw last Sunday against the LA Galaxy, setting up Dom Dwyer’s goahead goal in the 69th minute. The second-year professional joined the club in the 2015 MLS SuperDraft out of Akron and has since become a mainstay along Kansas City’s back line, starting 37 of 57 appearances across all competitions.

Now in his fourth season with Sporting KC, Feilhaber has five assists in his last seven games and is one assist shy of becoming the second player in club history to reach 10 regular season assists in multiple seasons (Preki).

Abdul-Salaam, 25, was the only player to feature in all six matches during a grueling month of August in which Sporting KC played five road games. The travel-heavy month included trips to Portland, Philadelphia, Vancouver, Dallas and Trinidad and Tobago as Peter Vermes’ men juggled regular season play with the Scotiabank CONCACAF Champions League.

CCL HOPES DASHED

Sporting KC crashed out of the Scotiabank CONCACAF Champions League with a 2-1 defeat to Vancouver Whitecaps FC on Sept. 18 at Children’s Mercy Park. Diego Rubio scored for the hosts shortly after halftime, but a 41st-minute goal from Erik Hurtado and a 93rd-minute strike from 15-year-old Alphonso Davies clinched first place in Group C for Vancouver and eliminated Sporting KC from North America’s premier club tournament.

DOM AND JAKE LEAD THE WAY

In a developing theme over the last several weeks, Dom Dwyer and Jacob Peterson have led the way for Sporting KC. Since July 24, Dwyer (6) and Peterson (5) have combined for 11 goals. During that time, only two other duos in MLS have been more prolific. Jozy Altidore (8) and Sebastian Giovinco (8) have scored 16 combined goals for Toronto FC, while the New York Red Bulls have received 13 goals collectively from Bradley Wright-Phillips (11) and Sean Davis/Gonzalo Veron (2 each).

PETERSON IS “THE ANSWER”

Grizzled veteran Jacob Peterson continues to piece together arguably the best season in his 11-year MLS career. The forward has a career-best six goals this year, three more than his previous three seasons combined, and has emerged as a second scoring punch in the Sporting KC attack. He has also started 13 straight games, the longest run of consecutive starts in his 244-game career.

RUBIO SPREADING THE WEALTH

Sporting KC forward Diego Rubio has become the first player in Sporting KC history to score in MLS, the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup and the CONCACAF Champions League in the same season. The 23-year-old Chilean, who completed a permanent transfer to Sporting KC from Spanish side Real Valladolid on Sept. 1, joined the club in March and has since recorded three goals and one assist in 17 appearances across all competitions. He opened his MLS scoring account in a 1-1 draw at Vancouver Whitecaps FC on April 27, then netted the game-winner in extra time of a 2-1 victory over Minnesota United FC in the U.S. Open Cup Round of 32 on June 15. He added a CONCACAF Champions League goal on Sept. 18 in a 2-1 loss to Vancouver.

In a 2-2 draw against the LA Galaxy on Sunday, Peterson became the third player in Sporting KC history to score in five straight regular season home games, joining Preki (1996) and Scott Sealy (2006).

DWYER HITS HALF A HUNDRED

As impressive as Jacob Peterson’s renaissance has been, it was Dom Dwyer who stamped his name into the league history books on Sunday. The Englishman became the 50th player ever to score 50 regular season goals. Among the 18 active players on the list, Dwyer is the youngest at 26 years old. Remarkably, he is one of just two on the list below the age of 30 — joining Houston forward Will Bruin, who is nine months older than the Sporting KC striker. Dwyer has enjoyed another excellent campaign in 2016, becoming the first player in club history to reach 12 goals in three straight regular seasons.

THREE TITLES IN FOUR YEARS

When Sporting KC lifted the 2015 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup last September, it became the fifth MLS club to win three major trophies in a four-year span since 2005, joining Seattle, D.C. United, LA Galaxy and Columbus Crew SC. Should Sporting KC add to its trophy haul in 2016, it would join LA as the only MLS clubs to win four titles in a five-year span since 2005. Sporting KC MLS Cup (2013), Open Cup (2012, 2015) Seattle Sounders FC Open Cup (2009, 2010, 2011, 2014), Supporters’ Shield (2014) D.C.
