LA ST M AT C H V S . S P O R T I N G KC FC Dallas defeated SKC 3-2 at Children’s Mercy Park. The scoring was opened by Michael Barrios when he chipped a bouncing ball over an onrushing Tim Melia in the 23rd minute. Gerso Fernandes leveled that game four minutes after the break when he curled a shot passed Jesse Gonzalez into the bottom corner. Michael Barrios grabbed his second goal of the game in the 63rd minute when he poked the ball between the Melia’s legs and into the goal. Barrios completed his hat-trick 10 minutes later when a deflection fell kindly to him in the box and he fired into the back of the net. SKC pulled within one goal in the final minute of stoppage time with a Dániel Sallói goal off a corner kick, but not enough for a comeback.
FC D DE F E N S E V S . S P O R T I N G KC FC Dallas has allowed 16 goals at home and 23 goals on the road this season and is tied with Atlanta United FC and Sporting Kansas City for 3rd in MLS with 39 goals allowed – NYRB (33) and SEA (34) have allowed fewer. FCD (1.22) and SKC rank third in goals against average. Goalkeepers Jesse Gonzalez (1.21 in 19 starts) and Jimmy Maurer (1.23 in 13 starts) rank sixth and ninth, respectively, in MLS’s GAA, making FCD the only team with two goalkeepers in the Top 10. SKC’s Tim Melia ranks seventh (1.22 GAA in 31 starts). FC Dallas ranks 21st with 330 fouls committed (10.31 fouls per game), while SKC is 17th with 344 fouls committed (10.75 per game). Dominique Badji is tied for 10th in MLS in fouls committed with 48 (2 per game).
FCD’S OF F E N S E V S . S P O R T I N G K C Dallas has a winning percentage of .857 (16-1-4) when scoring first – ranking fifth in MLS. Sporting Kansas City (14-2-2) ranks seventh with a winning percentage of .833 when scoring the first goal. FCD midfielders Michael Barrios and Santiago Mosquera have combined for 11 goals and 5 assists since July 28. SKC leads the league with the most shots (563) and is 4th in the lead with the least shots allowed (377).
FC Dallas (8,275 minutes) ranks first in Homegrown minutes, leaping over New York Red Bulls with 8,190 minutes. FC Dallas was the first team in MLS history to have six Homegrown Players (Jesse Gonzalez, Reggie Cannon, Victor Ulloa, Kellyn Acosta, Paxton Pomykal and Jesus Ferreira) to share the pitch at one time in the 3-1 win vs. Chicago on July 14. FCD and RSL set a MLS record with 11 Homegrown Players appearing (10 starting) in a single match on July 7, with six players from Salt Lake and five players from Dallas.
FC D A LLA S ’ G O A LS C O RERS FC Dallas extended their league lead in the number of goal-scorers to 16, tied with Sporting Kansas City. FC Dallas players who have scored in 2018: Roland Lamah, Maxi Urruti, Michael Barrios, Reto Ziegler, Matt Hedges, Kellyn Acosta, Tesho Akindele, Reggie Cannon, Cristian Colmán, Mauro Díaz, Carlos Gruezo, Jacori Hayes, Santiago Mosquera, Ryan Hollingshead, Dominique Badji and Maynor Figueroa.
O N TH IS D AY FC Dallas is 0-1-0 on games played on October 21. FCD lost, 3-1, against Seattle Sounders FC on October 21, 2012.
R EG G IE “TH E C A NNON ” Reggie Cannon leads in minutes for FC Dallas (2,741 minutes), playing in 31 matches this season. Cannon became the fourth Homegrown player to reach the 2,000 minute mark for FC Dallas. FCD has now had a Homegrown player hit 2,000 minutes in five consecutive seasons: Victor Ulloa did it twice (2,365 in 2014 and 2,915 in 2015), Kellyn Acosta (2,328 in 2016) and Jesse Gonzalez (2,610 in 2017).
S ET P IEC ES FC Dallas scored its first set piece goal of the 2018 season on June 2 against LAFC. The goal came in the 25th minute by defender Reto Ziegler. FC Dallas scored five set piece goals in 2017, but did not score on a set piece until the eighth match of the 2017 season (this was FCD’s 13th match of the 2018 season). FC Dallas has scored 13 set pieces in 2018. Of the 13, five have been game-winners, two have been draw-earning equalizers and three have been late-game insurance goals.
FC DALLAS’ 2 0 1 8 PL AYOF F RUN ON T H E L I N E Dallas is the lone team in control of its own destiny. To do so, though, there cannot be a misstep. First and foremost, Sunday’s match against SKC is a six-point swing that could guarantee a top-two spot with a victory. An FCD win guarantees a first-round bye, while a win coupled with an LAFC loss would clinch the top spot in the conference with a week to play. A draw in Frisco and and LAFC win puts the Californians in the driver’s seat heading to Decision Day. A Dallas loss and an LAFC win could see FCD needing to win by six goals in Colorado to clinch a bye (if SKC and LAFC were to draw in the final game). If all of the top three all falter this weekend and next, Seattle seems poised to pull six points from its trip to Houston and finale vs. San Jose and could squeak into the top two.

#FCDvSKC: BY THE NUMBERS
Sporting Kansas City remains on the road this weekend for a pivotal top-of-the-table clash against FC Dallas at Toyota Stadium in Frisco, Texas. A win would see Sporting KC leapfrog Dallas into first place in the Western Conference with just one game to go, also confirming that Sporting will host at least one home game in the MLS Cup Playoffs. The two sides have met twice this year already, splitting 3-2 scorelines at Children’s Mercy Park. The first encounter came on June 16, 2018, in the U.S. Open Cup Round of 16. Sporting KC fell behind in that match when Carlos Gruezo tapped home from close range, only for the hosts to respond well and take the lead following a brace from Daniel Salloi. Roland Lamah pulled Dallas level late in the second half against the run of play, only for Yohan Croizet to volley home an absolutely stunning winner from 20 yards out with just minutes to go in the cup tie. Just over a month later, Dallas visited KC again - this time in MLS play - and escaped with a 3-2 victory when Michael Barrios’ hat trick cancelled out goals from Gerso Fernandes and Daniel Salloi. Sporting KC leads the all-time regular-season series 24-23-12 but holds a 9-14-5 record on the road. #FCDvSKC: Recent Meetings (SKC leads 24-23-12 in regular season)

Sporting KC Game Notes | October 21, 2018 at FC Dallas | SportingKC.com/Game-Notes SPORTING KANSAS CITY NEWS AND NOTES
HOSTING SCENARIOS
SALLOI NETS GAME-WINNING BRACE
Sporting Kansas City continued its quest for a top two finish in the MLS Western Conference - resulting in a first-round bye in the 2018 MLS Cup Playoffs - when the side demolished Vancouver Whitecaps FC 4-1 at BC Place on Wednesday night. With a club-record eighth straight berth in the MLS Cup Playoffs already guaranteed, the win put Sporting KC back in second place, just a point back of first-place FC Dallas.
Sporting Kansas City forward Daniel Salloi snapped a seven-game goal drought with a game-winning performance against Vancouver Whitecaps FC at BC Place on Wednesday night. The Homegrown striker first pounced on Khiry Shelton’s lay off to give his side a 2-1 lead in the 82nd minute before adding his second - again off a Shelton assist - to make the final score 4-1 in the seventh minute of added time.
Sitting on 56 points through 32 games, Sporting KC is sitting level on points with LAFC, and ahead of Bob Bradley’s side on the goal difference tiebreaker. Seattle (53 points), Portland (51 points) and Real Salt Lake (49 points) round out the top six, with seventhplace LA Galaxy (45 points) on the outside looking in. Sporting KC can finish anywhere between first and fifth.
Salloi’s last game came in the 3-2 defeat to FC Dallas on July 28 at Children’s Mercy Park, where he scored a late consolation goal. The brace is also Salloi’s first of his MLS career, and second of the season having scored twice in the U.S. Open Cup Round of 32 victory over Dallas on June 16. It also marked the first time in club history that a Homegrown player had scored more than once in an MLS match.
Sporting KC’s magic number for a home playoff game is now 2. Two points from Sporting KC’s final two matches would guarantee that the MLS Cup Playoffs return to Children’s Mercy Park for the first time since 2013. However, there are multiple scenarios in which Sporting KC can clinch a top-four finish and a home playoff game this Sunday. Sporting KC also knows that wins in their final two games would result in a firstplace finish and home-field advantage through the Western Conference finals.
Salloi - who is having a breakout season for club and country in 2018 - is now tied for the team lead with nine MLS goals on the season, going along with seven assists.
BUSIO SECOND-YOUNGEST GOALSCORER IN MLS HISTORY
Sporting Kansas City Homegrown midfielder Gianluca Busio made more MLS history during Wednesday night’s 4-1 victory over Vancouver Whitecaps FC at BC Place, becoming the second youngest goalscorer in the league’s history.
Sporting KC can clinch a top-four finish & a home playoff game on Sunday if... • Sporting KC beats FC Dallas, OR • Real Salt Lake beats or ties Portland, OR • Sporting KC ties FC Dallas, AND Houston beats Seattle # Club 1 FC Dallas 2 Sporting Kansas City 3 Los Angeles FC

Busio waited patiently in the 94th minute as fellow sub Johnny Russell dribbled toward goal before slotting a pass to the Sporting KC Academy product who prodded home. At the age of just 16 years and 142 days, Busio is the youngest goalscorer in MLS since Freddy Adu netted his first goal for D.C. United in a 3-2 loss at the then New York MetroStars on April 17, 2004 at the age of 14 years and 320 days.

There was some wider history to made in the match as well as Busio’s tally, combined with Daniel Salloi’s brace, marked the first time in Sporting KC history that the club has had three Academy products score in an MLS match.
DEALING WITH DALLAS
RUSSELL INTO DOUBLE DIGITS FOR ASSISTS
Sporting Kansas City remains on the road this weekend as the side prepares to take on FC Dallas for the second time in MLS play and third time in all competitions this season. It’s the first clash of the year at Toyota Stadium, with the two sides splitting results at Children’s Mercy Park over the summer.
With his unselfish assist for Gianluca Busio’s goal in Wednesday’s 4-1 victory over Vancouver Whitecaps FC at BC Place, Sporting Kansas City winger Johnny Russell moved into first place on the team with 10 assists in his maiden season with the club. Russell shrugged off the attentions of Aaron Maund before calmly sending a ball across the face of goal for 16-year-old Busio to tap home his first professional goal and make the score 3-1.
Sporting KC first hosted Dallas on June 16 for a Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup Round of 16 clash. Dallas raced out to a lead behind Carlos Gruezo’s goal, only for Daniel Salloi to equalize right before the halftime interval. Salloi added a second with a low shot midway through the second half before Roland Lamah equalized for the visitors. It was left to substitute Yohan Croizet, who crashed home a stunning volley - that was voted the club’s Goal of the Year - to win the contest 3-2 in the 89th minute.
Russell is the first Sporting KC player to record double-digit assists in MLS regularseason play since Benny Feilhaber produced 15 and 13 in consecutive seasons in 2015 and 2016. Russell is only the sixth player in the club’s 23-year history to record 10 or more assists in a single regular-season, as he joins the company of club greats Preki (1996-2000, 2002-2003), Matt McKeon (2000), Josh Wolff (2005), Graham Zusi (2012) and Benny Feilhaber (2015-2016).
The second meeting took place in regular-season action, as Dallas visited KC on July 28 with Sporting riding a five-game winless streak in all competitions. Michael Barrios gave his side the lead in the first half before Gerso Fernandes levelled matters with a well taken goal early in the second period. Barrios added two goals to complete his hat trick later in the half before Salloi reduced the deficit deep into stoppage time.
CLOSING IN ON GOALSCORING RECORD
Following Sporting Kansas City’s second-half explosion in the 4-1 victory over Vancouver Whitecaps FC at BC Place on Wednesday night, the side is just one goal away from tying the club’s all-time record for goals scored in a single season.
SKC last played at Toyota Stadium on April 22, 2017, when Maynor Figueroa’s late header condemned Peter Vermes’ side to a 1-0 loss, ending their unbeaten start to the season. Sporting holds a 24-23-12 edge in the all-time regular-season series, including a 9-14-5 record on the road.
Sporting KC - then the Kansas City Wiz - scored 61 goals in their inaugural season in 1996, and the current team currently has 60 goals on the 2018 MLS season, so two goals in Sporting’s last two matches will see 2018 remembered as a record-breaking regular season.
INTERNATIONALS RETURN
All three Sporting Kansas City players have returned from international duty after being called up to their senior national teams during the most recent FIFA window. Forward Krisztian Nemeth represented Hungary in two UEFA Nations League matches, while winger Johnny Russell linked up with Scotland for one UEFA Nations League clash and one friendly. Finally, midfielder Felipe Gutierrez was re-called to the Chilean National Team for the first time in a year for a pair of friendlies.
In addition to the club’s goalscoring production, Sporting KC has already set a new club record with 563 shots this season, beating the previous high of 542 set in 2012.
AWARD WINNERS NAMED AT PITCH BLACK
Sporting Kansas City announced the club’s 2018 awards on Friday, Oct. 12 during Pitch Black, presented by Audi, at Children’s Mercy Park. Votes from Sporting KC players, media members and supporters determined the following award winners:
Nemeth and Hungary played two away matches in Group 2 of UEFA Nations League C, as Nemeth appeared off the bench for the final 15 minutes in a 1-0 defeat to Greece on October 12 at Karaiskakis Stadium in Piraeus and was an unused substitute in a thrilling 3-3 draw with Estonia on October 15 at A. Le Coq Arena in Tallinn.
Most Valuable Player: Ilie Sanchez Offensive Player of the Year: Johnny Russell Co-Defensive Players of the Year: Tim Melia and Graham Zusi Newcomer of the Year: Felipe Gutierrez Goal of the Year: Yohan Croizet vs. FC Dallas (June 16, 2018)
Russell earned his eighth cap for Scotland as the side resumed their Group 1 campaign in UEFA Nations League C on October 11 with a 2-1 defeat to Israel at Sammy Ofer Stadium in Haifa, where Russell started up front before being replaced in the 67th minute. Scotland then returned home to meet world No. 7 Portugal in a friendly on October 14 at Hampden Park in Glasgow, where he was an unused substitute.
Sporting Kansas City also selected award winners in the following categories: The Neal and Jeanne Patterson Humanitarian of the Year: Graham Zusi Swope Park Rangers Most Valuable Player: Hadji Barry Bob Gansler Academy Player of the Year: Sebastian Cruz Sporting Club Network Member of the Year: Sporting Kaw Valley The Victory Project Volunteer of the Year: Brittany Bolden
Gutierrez and Chile stayed on this side of the Atlantic, first heading to Miami for an international friendly against Peru at Hard Rock Stadium on October 12 - a 3-0 loss before jetting down to Mexico to beat El Tri 1-0 on October 16 at Estadio Corregidora in Queretaro. Gutierrez was an unused substitute in both matches. 3
Sporting KC Game Notes | October 21, 2018 at FC Dallas | SportingKC.com/Game-Notes GOALS GALORE
SPORTING KANSAS CITY NEWS AND NOTES Zusi joined Sporting KC in the 2009 MLS SuperDraft and has spent his entire professional career with the club. The University of Maryland product was named the 2011 MLS Breakout Player of the Year before landing six MLS All-Star nods (2012-2015, 2017-18) and two MLS Best XI selections (2012-13). Zusi ranks second in club history in both regular-season assists and regular-season appearances.
Sporting Kansas City has had few issues scoring goals so far in the 2018 season. Peter Vermes’ side has found multiple goals in 22 of the club’s 35 matches in all competitions this season and has only been shutout six times. Sporting KC is tied for the fourth highest scoring team in MLS so far in 2018 with 60 goals, while the side has scored 67 goals when including U.S. Open Cup play.
2026 WORLD CUP HEADING TO NORTH AMERICA
The United Bid of Canada, Mexico, and the United States was selected to host the 2026 FIFA World Cup on Wednesday, June 13 by the 68th FIFA Congress in Moscow. Kansas City is one of 23 Candidate Host Cities in the United Bid.
Sporting has 16 different goalscorers this year in MLS play - which is tied for the second highest number of goalscorers across a single squad this season. In 2018, SKC has found goals from Johnny Russell (9), Daniel Salloi (9), Diego Rubio (8), Felipe Gutierrez (7), Gerso Fernandes (5), Ilie Sanchez (4), Ike Opara (3), Yohan Croizet (3), Khiry Shelton (2), Graham Zusi (2), Jimmy Medranda (2), Cristian Lobato (2), Wan Kuzain Wan Kamal (1), Roger Espinoza (1), Krisztian Nemeth (1) and Gianluca Busio (1).
The vote, which occurred a day before the start of the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia, also marks the first time three nations have been selected to co-host a FIFA World Cup and the first time the FIFA World Cup will be played in North America in 32 years. The United Bid offers FIFA and its 211 Member Associations unity, certainty, and opportunity as they prepare to host the largest FIFA World Cup in history.
The 6-0 triumph over Vancouver Whitecaps FC on April 20 tied club records for largest margin of victory and most goals scored in a competitive match. Sporting KC has 60 goals through 32 regular-season matches this year, having scored 40 in all of 2017. The last time Sporting KC hit six goals in an MLS match was on June 20, 1999.
With the FIFA Congress decision to award the 2026 FIFA World Cup, to the federations of Canada, Mexico, and the United States, the three nations will jointly manage preparations for the 2026 FIFA World Cup until FIFA establishes their operations to manage the competition. Among other decisions, FIFA will make the final selection of host cities for the 2026 competition from the 23 candidates proposed in the United Bid.
SKC found it difficult to score on the road last season, only scoring 10 times in the club’s 17 away games in 2017 and winning twice on the road. In 16 road games this year, Sporting has surpassed the last two years’ combined goals total with 28 and has recorded seven road wins over Chicago (March 10), the LA Galaxy (April 8), Atlanta United (May 9), Houston (Aug. 4), LAFC (Aug. 11), San Jose (Sept. 15) and Vancouver (Oct. 17). Sporting also only scored multiple goals on the road two times in 2017 but has done so in nine of the club’s 16 away games so far in 2018.
Each of the United Bid’s 23 proposed stadiums are fully built, occupied and operational, ensuring long-term use following the 2026 World Cup. The United Bid has 150 existing world-class training facilities, millions of hotel rooms, and advanced infrastructure. The United Bid is expected to generate more than $14 billion in revenue and $11 billion in profits for FIFA, which will be shared with the 211 FIFA Member Associations, helping further develop and expand the game of football across the globe.
VERMES ERA CONTINUES
Now in the midst of his 10th season at the helm of Sporting KC, manager Peter Vermes has guided his side to yet another postseason appearance in 2018 - clinched following the 1-1 draw with the LA Galaxy on Oct. 6. With the 1-0 win over Houston on Aug. 4, 2018, Vermes coached his 302nd regular-season match - becoming the all-time leader in games coached with one club in league history.
LOOKING EXTENDS PLAYOFF STREAK
With the 1-1 draw against the LA Galaxy on Oct. 6, 2018, Sporting KC continued its impressive streak of postseason appearances, becoming just the sixth club in MLS history to make at least eight straight trips to the MLS Cup Playoffs, while Manager Peter Vermes is now just the third coach to lead the same team to eight straight playoff appearances.
Vermes is the longest tenured coach that is currently coaching a team in Major League Soccer, having been in charge of Sporting KC since 2009 - one year longer than Ben Olsen has been at the helm at D.C. United. Vermes became the longest tenured coach in MLS when then LA Galaxy head coach Bruce Arena took the USMNT job in late 2016.

Vermes has guided Sporting KC to four titles under his watch, winning three Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cups in 2012, 2015 and 2017, and the MLS Cup in 2013. His trophy haul ranks as the second highest among active MLS coaches - only trailing Toronto FC’s Greg Vanney’s five championships. On a local level, Vermes’ 10 years with SKC is the second longest tenure by a head coach in the history of major KC professional sports behind Super Bowl champion and Pro Football Hall of Famer Hank Stram, who was Chiefs head coach from 1963-1974.

Vermes has compiled a 162-115-92 record in all competitions with Sporting KC, including a remarkable 20-6-3 mark in U.S. Open Cup contests. Vermes’ 131 wins in MLS regular-season action ranks fifth all-time and third among active coaches in MLS, trailing Los Angeles FC’s Bob Bradley and the LA Galaxy’s Dom Kinnear.
CONTINUITY ABOUND
On Tuesday, September 4, Sporting Kansas City announced that the club has re-signed MLS All-Star quartet Matt Besler, Roger Espinoza, Ilie Sanchez and Graham Zusi to new multi-year contracts with the club. Besler, Espinoza and Zusi were all set to become free agents at the conclusion of the 2018 MLS season, while Ilie had a club option for 2019.
VERMES VERBATIM
See below for postgame reaction from Sporting KC Manager Peter Vermes following the 4-1 victory over Vancouver Whitecaps FC at BC Place on October 17, 2018.
Besler, 31, is SKC’s all-time leader in appearances, starts and minutes played across all competitions. The 10-year veteran is a five-time MLS All-Star (2011, 2013-16), a twotime MLS Best XI selection (2012-13) and was named the 2012 MLS Defender of the Year. Besler has helped SKC secure four major trophies this decade, with the 2013 MLS Cup hoisted amidst three Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup titles in 2012, 2015 and 2017. Espinoza was a 2008 MLS SuperDraft selection that has represented no other MLS club during his 11-year professional career. He was named an MLS All-Star in 2012, the same year he helped guide the team to the U.S. Open Cup title and its best-ever regular-season record, before signing with EPL side Wigan Athletic in 2013. While in England, he helped Wigan to a historic upset against Manchester City in the 2013 FA Cup Final, playing the full 90 minutes in a 1-0 win before returning to SKC in 2015.
On the match: “I thought in the first half we were fine, I just don’t think that we were aggressive enough to go to the goal. I think we were just happy to be on the field and keep the ball and possession, but possession is nothing if you don’t go to the goal, and we lacked intensity, especially up front. We gave a silly goal away, and it was a silly goal on our part. I just told the guys at halftime, there was no tactics, it was more of ‘look, you have to have the desire in this game, you have to have the intensity’, and it was different in the second half. We had the desire and intensity. I think it overwhelmed them and put them under pressure. When we scored the first one the momentum came with us and it changed the game.”
Ilie has been one of the premier defensive midfielders in MLS since signing for Sporting KC in early 2017, ranking in the top 10 in successful passes, duels won and interceptions over the last two seasons combined. During that time, the Spaniard has started all but one of Sporting KC’s games in all competitions, playing every minute in each appearance. He earned Sporting KC Newcomer of the Year honors last fall after helping the team to its third U.S. Open Cup title in six seasons.
On exploiting the Whitecaps desperation at 1-1: “We knew that they’re obviously trying to get into the playoffs. They have to do whatever they can to attack and try to get numbers forward if they can. I think that we were smart, we were disciplined, but at the same time we started to win the balls and play between the lines, and then their back line was left on their own. I thought we created some great chances, and we got hungry in the second half. We were really, really hungry. The changes we made I think did a great job and they gave a big impact to the game.” 4

Sporting KC Game Notes | October 21, 2018 at FC Dallas | SportingKC.com/Game-Notes Manager | Peter Vermes
Assistant Coach | Kerry Zavagnin Assistant Coach Kerry Zavagnin first joined Kansas City in 2000 as a holding midfielder and was an integral part of the club’s midfield for the next nine seasons, during which time he helped lead the Wizards to MLS Cup (2000) and U.S. Open Cup (2004) Championships. He was named to the MLS All-Star team and the Best XI in 2004. Zavagnin’s primary duties as an assistant include scouting, developing Sporting Kansas City’s younger players, breaking down film and assisting with training sessions, among others.
Peter Vermes is in the midst of his 10th season as Sporting Kansas City Manager in 2018 and is the longest-tenured active head coach in MLS. He is the team’s longest-serving manager and his 162 coaching victories in all competitions are the most club history. During his tenure, he has won four major trophies – the 2012, 2015 and 2017 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cups and the 2013 MLS Cup championship – and finished atop the Eastern Conference regular-season standings in 2011 and 2012. He is the first coach in club history to lead Sporting KC to eight straight postseason appearances, as well as the only person to ever win the MLS Cup as both a player and a coach with the same team. His 131 regular-season wins top the club’s all-time chart and rank fifth most in MLS history. He passed his former coach Bob Gansler as the winningest manager in team history with a 3-1 win over Real Salt Lake on Aug. 12, 2015, his 109th victory in all competitions. On August 4, 2018, Vermes coached his 302nd MLS regularseason game with Sporting KC, becoming the league’s all-time leader in games coached for one club. He has coached 369 total games during his Kansas City coaching career, most in club history.
He started his professional career with the New York/New Jersey MetroStars, where he played in 39 games over two seasons. After spending one season with the Lehigh Valley Steam (USL-1), Zavagnin came to Kansas City in 2000. He played 237 games (228 starts) and logged 20,516 minutes for Kansas City, setting team records in both categories before both were overtaken by Matt Besler early in the 2018 campaign. He scored eight goals and added 22 assists in his nine seasons in Kansas City blue. Zavagnin was named Team Defender of the Year in 2001.
Vermes oversees all soccer operations for Sporting KC, including the active roster, the Swope Park Rangers (USL) and the Sporting KC Academy. Vermes entered MLS ahead of its inaugural season in 1996 and retired from the league in 2002, closing out his playing career in Kansas City after stints with the New York/New Jersey MetroStars and Colorado Rapids.
On top of his club success in Kansas City, Zavagnin also appeared 21 times for the United States Men’s National Team. He recorded one assist for the U.S., who went 15-2-4 when Zavagnin featured. He married his wife Mirriam prior to the 2009 season, when he became an assistant coach at the club.
Following a standout high school career in which he was named New Jersey Player of the Year, Vermes was a star forward and All-American at Rutgers University. After college, Vermes represented the United States in the 1988 Olympics in Seoul, Korea, and was named 1988 Chevrolet U.S. Male Soccer Athlete of the Year for his efforts.
Assistant Coach | Zoran Savic
Vermes was an integral part of a young U.S. team at the 1990 World Cup in Italy, where he nearly scored a sensational goal against the host Azzurri. It was the first time the U.S. had qualified for the World Cup in 40 years and set the stage for the progress of the U.S. National Team. In 1989 and 1990, Vermes became the first American to play in the Hungarian and Dutch First Divisions, playing for Raba ETO and FC Volendam, respectively. He later spent five years with Figueras of the Spanish Second Division.
Assistant Coach Zoran Savic joined Sporting Kansas City late in the 2009 season after a 30-year career at all levels of the game in the United States. A native of Gornji Milanovac, Yugoslavia, Savic began his journey through American soccer with the Buffalo Stallions of the Major Indoor Soccer League in 1980. Savic would go on to star for several MISL teams, with his most prosperous period coming with the Kansas City Comets, with whom he scored 70 goals in just over 100 appearances from 1982-1984.
For MLS’s inaugural season in 1996, Vermes served as captain of the New York/New Jersey MetroStars. In 1997, he was traded to the Colorado Rapids for current Sporting KC Assistant Coach Kerry Zavagnin and played in Denver through the 1999 season, leading the Rapids to the 1997 MLS Cup Final.
After retiring as a player in 1991, Savic turned his attention to coaching in the indoor game. Savic led the Kansas City Attack from 1992-1996, winning Coach of the Year honors for the 1994-1995 season while also serving as the team’s General Manager. Savic later coached the Kansas City Comets from 2000-2005.
Vermes joined Kansas City in 2000 for what would be the most successful seasons of his MLS career. During his first year in Kansas City, he anchored one of the best defenses in league history and won MLS Defender of the Year honors in helping lead the Wizards to the 2000 MLS Cup Championship. He retired in 2002 after appearing in 209 MLS matches (including playoffs) and playing more than 18,000 minutes. In 2013, Vermes was inducted into the National Soccer Hall of Fame.
In 2007 Savic switched to the outdoor game, joining Chivas USA as an assistant to then-head coach Preki before moving into the commentary booth for Kansas City matches in 2008 and 2009. Savic’s career as a commentator was cut short, however, when newly installed Manager Peter Vermes tabbed Savic to be part of his coaching staff late in the 2009 season.
