Sporting KC Game Notes | October 28, 2018 vs. Los Angeles FC | SportingKC.com/Game-Notes TOP SEED IN SIGHT

SPORTING KANSAS CITY NEWS AND NOTES

SALLOI BAGS BACK-TO-BACK WINNERS

Sporting Kansas City significantly boosted its mission to finish atop the Western Conference and clinch a first-round bye in the MLS Cup Playoffs with a six-point road swing last week. After defeating Vancouver Whitecaps FC 4-1 at BC Place on Wednesday night, Peter Vermes’ side went to table-topping Dallas and earned a 3-0 victory, leapfrogging the Texans into first place in the West.

Last week, Sporting Kansas City forward Daniel Salloi snapped a seven-game goal drought with back-to-back game-winning performances on the road against Vancouver Whitecaps FC and FC Dallas. The Homegrown striker scored the game-winning goal in the 4-1 victory over Vancouver before adding another with the final kick of the game, and also tallied the opening goal in the 3-0 win over Dallas.

Sitting on 59 points through 33 games, Sporting KC is two points ahead of Sunday’s opponents LAFC and FC Dallas, and three points ahead of chasing Seattle Sounders FC. Sporting KC can finish no worse than fourth place in the West, guaranteeing a home playoff game for the first time since the 2013 MLS Cup, and can essentially clinch the top seed in the West with a win or a draw on Sunday afternoon. A loss would drop Sporting KC to second, third or fourth.

Salloi is now tied for the team-lead with 10 goals on the season - alongside Johnny Russell - and is tied for sixth in MLS with five game-winning goals on the season. The Hungarian also has a knack for scoring against FC Dallas, as he now has four goals in three appearances across all competitions against the Texans in 2018, to go along with one in the U.S. Open Cup in 2017 for a total of five goals in four starts against Dallas.

Salloi - who is also third on the team with seven assists this season - now has 18 goals and nine assists in 58 appearances (40 starts) in all competitions for Sporting KC since signing as a Homegrown player ahead of the 2016 season.

Sporting KC can clinch the No. 1 seed if…

• Sporting KC beats LAFC, OR • Sporting KC ties LAFC, AND FC Dallas fails to beat Colorado by 15 or more goals Sporting KC can clinch the No. 2 seed if…

• Sporting KC ties LAFC, AND FC Dallas beats Colorado by 15 or more goals, OR • Sporting KC loses to LAFC, AND Colorado beats or ties FC Dallas, AND San Jose beats or ties Seattle # Club 1 Sporting Kansas City 2 Los Angeles FC 3 FC Dallas 4 Seattle Sounders FC

RUSSELL HITS RARE DOUBLE-DOUBLE IN 2018

When Sporting Kansas City winger Johnny Russell sent Dallas goalkeeper Jesse Gonzalez the wrong way from the penalty spot late in Sunday’s resounding 3-0 victory over FCD at Toyota Stadium, he joined an exclusive group, becoming just the fourth SKC player to record at least 10 goals and 10 assists in a single MLS regular season.

GOALSCORING RECORD ACHIEVED

During Sporting Kansas City’s comfortable 3-0 victory over FC Dallas on Sunday afternoon, the side achieved a major milestone as it set a new all-time club record for most goals in a single MLS season when Roger Espinoza fired home the second goal of the match midway through the second half - the 62nd goal of the 2018 campaign.

Sporting KC boasts a stunning recent record against California-based teams, going 10-1-5 in their last 16 matches against LAFC, the LA Galaxy and the San Jose Earthquakes, dating back to the club’s regular-season finale on Oct. 25, 2015 - a 2-1 victory over the Galaxy. This season, Sporting KC is 4-0-1 against Californian sides, beating San Jose twice, the Galaxy once and LAFC once, while also playing to a 1-1 draw against the Galaxy on Oct. 6 at Children’s Mercy Park.

Sporting KC - then the Kansas City Wiz - scored 61 goals in their inaugural season in 1996, and the current team now has 63 goals on the 2018 MLS season.

In addition to the club’s goalscoring production, Sporting KC has already tied or set new club records in a number of different offensive categories: Goals (63), Road Goals (31), Assists (67), Shots (575) and Corner Kicks (204).

In the sole meeting with LAFC prior to Sunday’s showdown, Sporting KC visited Banc of California Stadium on Aug. 11 and snapped LAFC’s home unbeaten record to start their existence. Heading into the match, LAFC were 5-0-5 at home, but Sporting KC ended that record with a convincing 2-0 victory, after Gerso Fernandes’ composed finish in the first half and Ilie Sanchez’s penalty kick midway through the second period.

BUSIO SECOND-YOUNGEST GOALSCORER IN MLS HISTORY

Sporting Kansas City Homegrown midfielder Gianluca Busio made more MLS history during last 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 is 17-7-8 overall against teams that are in the midst of their expansion campaign, while the club is 12-3-1 in their first-ever home games against an expansion franchise, only suffering defeats to the Houston Dynamo (2006), Seattle Sounders FC (2009) and the Montreal Impact (2012).

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.

MELIA MAKES CASE FOR GOALKEEPER OF THE YEAR

Sporting Kansas City goalkeeper Tim Melia continued to make his case for earning back-to-back MLS Goalkeeper of the Year titles with a stunning performance in the 3-0 victory over FC Dallas at Toyota Stadium on Sunday afternoon. Melia made five total saves, including a stop on Reto Ziegler’s penalty kick that would’ve tied the match up just minutes into the second half, on the way to his 13th shutout of the season.

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.

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:

Melia, who set a new club record with a 0.78 goals against average in 2017, has set a personal career-high in shutouts this year and is tied for the league-lead alongside New York Red Bulls’ gloveman Luis Robles. Sporting KC also has the third best defensive record in MLS this season, conceding just 39 goals in 33 games. Only the Red Bulls (33) and Seattle Sounders FC (36) have conceded fewer goals in 2018.

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)

In addition, Melia has now saved three penalties on the season - the most in MLS in 2018 - and has saved six of the 12 he’s faced since the start of the 2017 campaign, also the league-high in that time period (two ahead of RSL’s Nick Rimando). Melia also leads the league with 23 shutouts in the last two seasons combined.

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

Melia, a former MLS pool goalkeeper, has now made 128 appearances for Sporting KC in all competitions, posting a 1.06 goals against average and 43 shutouts. Sporting KC has a 59-36-30 record when he starts (59.2 win percentage), while Melia has also won both penalty shootouts that he’s taken part in for the club (2015 USOC Final, 2017 USOC Semifinal).

Sporting KC Game Notes | October 28, 2018 vs. Los Angeles FC | 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 23 of the club’s 36 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 63 goals, while the side has scored 70 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 (10), Daniel Salloi (10), 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), Roger Espinoza (2), Wan Kuzain Wan Kamal (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 63 goals through 33 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 the side’s 17 road games this year, Sporting surpassed the last two years’ combined goals total with 31 and recorded eight 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), Vancouver (Oct. 17) and Dallas (Oct. 21). Sporting also only scored multiple goals on the road two times in 2017 but did so in 10 of the club’s 17 away games 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. The 1-0 win over Houston on Aug. 4, 2018 saw Vermes coach 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.

LONGEST MLS PLAYOFF STREAKS Club Seasons LA Galaxy 10 (1996-2005) Seattle Sounders FC 10 (2009-2018) *active New York Red Bulls 9 (2010-2018) *active Sporting KC 8 (2011-2018) *active LA Galaxy 8 (2009-2016) NE Revolution 8 (2002-2009) Real Salt Lake 7 (2008-2014)

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.

LA Galaxy 6 1999-2004 Jason Kreis Real Salt Lake 6 2008-2013

Vermes has compiled a 163-115-92 record in all competitions with Sporting KC, including a remarkable 20-6-3 mark in U.S. Open Cup contests. Vermes’ 132 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 3-0 victory over FC Dallas at Toyota Stadium on October 21, 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.

On the game...

“I think it was a very, very, very difficult match for both teams. It was a hard-fought match.

The difference for us is our work ethic was exceptional tonight on both sides of the ball, and I thought we showed a real hunger in and around the boxes, which was really good.

I think it was the difference. Both keepers played very well, obviously both made a save on PKs. Tough game, but I think work ethic and two guys to give credit would be the goalkeeper, Tim Melia, and Khiry Shelton. I thought Khiry was a handful up front.

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.

We talked about it leading into this game, we can’t afford to spend a half hanging out. I don’t necessarily think we played all that well in the first half, but we worked, and I think that was the difference for us in the game and the result.”

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.

Sporting KC Game Notes | October 28, 2018 vs. Los Angeles FC | 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 163 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 132 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 370 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.
