VANCOUVER WHITECAPS FC vs SPORTING KANSAS CITY BC PLACE, Vancouver, B.C. April 27, 2016 (WEEK 9, MLS Game #77) 7:30 p.m. PT (TSN1; KMCI-38 / SKCTVN) A match which could already have importance on the Western Conference outlook is ahead when Vancouver Whitecaps FC take on Sporting Kansas City for a second time this season, Wednesday evening at BC Place. Whitecaps FC snapped their three-game winless run at the weekend, ending a six-hour goalless drought in a 3-0 home win vs. FC Dallas. Sporting saw their losing slide extended to three games, opening the road swing in a 1-0 defeat at the San Jose Earthquakes. SKC took the full honors the first time the teams met, a 2-1 win March 12 in Kansas City. REFEREE: Armando Villarreal. AR1 (bench): Frank Anderson; AR2 (opposite): Cameron Blanchard; 4th: Daniel Radford MLS Career: 64 games; FC/gm: 22.9; Y/gm: 2.8; R: 18; pens: 17 SUSPENDED: none WARNINGS: SUSPENDED NEXT YELLOW CARD: VAN: Octavio Rivero SUSPENDED AFTER TWO YELLOW CARDS: none DISABLED LIST: none INTERNATIONAL ABSENCES: none HEAD-TO-HEAD ALL-TIME (8 meetings): Whitecaps FC 1 win, 12 goals … Sporting 5 wins, 16 goals … Ties 2 AT VANCOUVER (4 meetings): Whitecaps FC 1 win, 6 goals … Sporting 2 wins, 7 goals … Ties 1 FUTURE MATCH: 8/20: Sporting Kansas City vs. Vancouver Whitecaps FC, 7:30 p.m. CT  The teams are meeting for the second time this season. Dom Dwyer scored a pair of first-half goals as Sporting took a 2-1 win March 12 at Children’s Mercy Park.  Sporting have won the last three meetings between the teams, winning both a year ago. SKC have never lost to Whitecaps FC at home, winning all four meetings there lifetime. The lone Whitecaps FC victory in eight meetings all-time came in 2014, a 2-0 win at BC Place.  Coaches record: Peter Vermes vs. VAN: P8 W5 L1 D2… Carl Robinson vs. KC: P4 W1 L3 D0 LAST MEETING 3/12: KC 2, VAN 1 (Dwyer 5, 41 – Morales 70)  Sporting took a two-goal lead by halftime through a pair of tremendous goals from Dom Dwyer. After just four minutes, Dwyer took the ball from a turnover and rifled home from 28 yards, the shot rattling the underside of the crossbar before nestling into the goal.  SKC made it 2-0 when Dwyer finished off a well-orchestrated attack in the 41st minute, converting a Chance Myers pass across the face of goal from point-blank range.  Whitecaps FC went down a man when Jordan Smith received a straight red card in first-half stoppage time for a tackle from behind on Graham Zusi, before pulling a goal back when Pedro Morales converted a penalty with 20 minutes remaining.  SPORTING KANSAS CITY (4-1-2-3): Tim Melia - Chance Myers (Saad Abdul-Salaam 83), Nuno Andre Coelho, Matt Besler, Amadou Dia - Soni Mustivar - Jordi Quintilla (Jimmy Medranda 76), Connor Hallisey (Brad Davis 77) - Roger Espinoza, Dom Dwyer, Graham Zusi.  VANCOUVER WHITECAPS FC (4-2-3-1): David Ousted - Jordan Smith (ejected 46+), Kendall Waston, Tim Parker, Jordan Harvey - Deybi Flores (Kianz Froese 46), Matias Laba (Blas Perez 67) - Cristian Techera (Fraser Aird 46), Pedro Morales, Kekuta Manneh - Octavio Rivero. VANCOUVER WHITECAPS FC Vancouver Whitecaps FC put an end to their two-game losing slide, rolling to a 3-0 win against FC Dallas on Saturday evening at BC Place. Whitecaps FC are in seventh place in the Western Conference with 10 points from 8 games. LAST MATCH  The game's opening goal came in the 35th minute, when FC Dallas goalkeeper Chris Seitz punched a cross off teammate Maynor Figueroa and back into the net.  The 'Caps doubled their lead in the 63rd minute, as a corner kick was cleared only as far as Jordan Harvey at the spot, and he turned home the rebound.  The match was secured 14 minutes later, when Kekuta Manneh was freed down the left flank and lashed home a low drive from the corner of the area inside the far post.

MLS GAME INFORMATION


Whitecaps FC boss Carl Robinson made no changes to the team that fell 1-0 to Real Salt Lake at Rio Tinto Stadium.  VANCOUVER WHITECAPS FC (4-2-3-1): David Ousted - Fraser Aird, Kendall Waston, Tim Parker, Jordan Harvey - Andrew Jacobson, Matias Laba - Cristian Techera (Christian Bolanos 80), Nicolas Mezquida (Russell Teibert 88), Kekuta Manneh - Octavio Rivero (Blas Perez 77). TEAM NEWS  Whitecaps FC put an end to a three-game winless run, snapping a two-game losing slide in the win against FC Dallas, their first victory since March 26.  The win also extended the ‘Caps home undefeated streak to three games, after opening the season with a 3-2 loss to Montréal at BC Place.  “We scored one goal from open play today, so I'm delighted,” Robinson said. "We win a game of football. I say this, as we don't make a big thing of it. It's about winning games. We won the game today with a little bit of luck, which we haven't had in one or two weeks. It's nice, we'll take it, but we'll move on.”  The Kekuta Manneh goal was the first goal scored by the club from open play this season. Of the ‘Caps first eight goals this year, four had come from penalty kicks, three came from set pieces and one came on an own goal.  “We were creating chances, and if we were not creating chances, we’d be worried but we created a lot, it felt like. The week before that, we knew that it was just going to be a matter of time before we start putting them away. It finally happened today, I’m really excited, and hopefully we can continue that with the game on Wednesday,” said Manneh.  The own goal snapped the Whitecaps’ attacking shutout streak at 372 minutes, the longest such streak in the league this season, and the second-longest in the club’s MLS history (first: 450 minutes in 2014).  “It doesn't help and make it easier, when you're not scoring as many goals as you'd like,” Robinson said. “You go through ruts, as a group of players and as a club. Sometimes it goes against you and doesn't go your way, so you focus on performance. We haven't scored as many goals as we'd like, and I keep getting reminded of that. The wide players, the forward players, they've just got to keep going and the goals will come.”  Jordan Harvey scored his second goal of the season, his first coming in the season opener, the first goal scored by Whitecaps FC this season. Of the 10 league goals Harvey has scored in his career, nine have been with Whitecaps FC; his single-season career-high is four goals, in 2013.  The shutout was also the third of the season for Whitecaps FC, the third in a row at BC Place, having now not conceded a goal on their home ground in 271 minutes. The ‘Caps have conceded 10 of their 11 goals in their four losses.  “I’m pleased from today because Dallas are a good team. They come into our place, they’ve scored a lot of goals. I kept getting reminded of that this week that they are the highest scoring team and deservedly so. I’m pleased that we kept a clean sheet and that’s why I said I’ll take one goal and a clean sheet,” Robinson said. SPORTING KANSAS CITY Sporting Kansas City saw their losing skid extended to three games, dropping a 1-0 decision to the San Jose Earthquakes on Sunday afternoon at Avaya Stadium. Sporting are in sixth place in the Western Conference with 12 points from 8 games. LAST MATCH  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.  Sporting manager Peter Vermes made one change to the team that dropped a 2-1 decision to FC Dallas at Toyota Stadium. Graham Zusi came into the team in place of Jimmy Medranda.  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. TEAM NEWS  Sporting suffered their third consecutive defeat in the loss at San Jose, their fourth loss in the last five outings after opening the season with three consecutive victories.  “It is a long season, a marathon and not a sprint – however, we aren’t happy with the situation that we’re in,” midfielder Brad Davis said. “We started off well. We’re on three straight losses. No excuses for today, although I do feel like we were a little bit hard done today with that penalty.”  Sporting were also shut out at the attacking end for the first time this season. Four teams still remain who have not been blanked offensively in a game this season (Orlando City, Portland, Real Salt Lake, San Jose).  “I thought we controlled a lot of the game,” SKC manager Peter Vermes said. “I don’t think we gave up too much in the game in regards to the kind of chances we created compared to them. We did more than enough to come out of here with something, for sure.”

    

Davis made a second consecutive start for the first time this season, playing the full 90 minutes in each of the last two matches. “This is a good group, a unified group,” Davis said. “We have an opportunity in three days to make this all go away and start putting together some wins. That’s what we plan on doing. We’re going to move past this and stick together.” After missing out on the FC Dallas match through squad rotation, Graham Zusi returned to the starting lineup and played the full 90 minutes in a wide attacking role. He has played the full match in each of his seven appearances this season. Matt Besler made a second consecutive start after missing three matches to a concussion, but he came off in the 75th minute in favor of Ike Opara in a like-for-like change. “I knew there were going to be a lot of headers, and I just didn't want to put him in harm's way in regards to some of the things that transpired, especially since he had a concussion a few weeks ago,” said Vermes.

In 1993, Vancouver joined the North American second division after the disbandment of the CSL. In 2001, the club reverted to the Whitecaps and the following season added FC to their official name, while creating a full club model that including an extensive youth development and grassroots participation programs, facility development, and community relations to support specific initiatives related to health and wellness through soccer. Whitecaps FC were the 17th club admitted to MLS on March 18, 2009, and on March 19, 2011, Vancouver kicked off their inaugural year in MLS at Empire Field before moving into the renovated BC Place in downtown Vancouver.

Empire Field Livestrong Sporting Park BC Place Sporting Park BC Place BC Place Sporting Park Children’s Mercy Park

RIDING THE MOMENTUM Whitecaps FC snapped out of a scoring drought in a big way on Saturday, defeating FC Dallas 3-0 at BC Place. An own goal from Dallas defender Maynor Figueroa started the scoring for the ’Caps, then Jordan Harvey and Kekuta Manneh padded the lead in the second half. Harvey scored his second goal of the season off a corner kick, while Manneh found the net in open play, on a breakaway off forward passes from Cristian Techera and Blas Pérez. It was the highest scoring output for the ’Caps since their Decision Day win over Houston Dynamo last October. SNAPPING THE STREAK The ’Caps enter Wednesday evening’s match looking to snap a three-match losing streak to Sporting Kansas City, their longest current losing streak against one team. In their last meeting on March 12, striker Dom Dwyer scored two first-half goals to give Sporting KC a 2-1 win in their homeopener at newly-renamed Children’s Mercy Park. Whitecaps FC captain Pedro Morales answered with a 70th-minute penalty kick goal after SKC goalkeeper Tim Melia was whistled for a foul against ’Caps striker Octavio Rivero inside the box. Vancouver played the second half with 10 men after Jordan Smith was sent off for a late first-half tackle on Graham Zusi. Kansas City swept their season series last year, including a come-from-behind 4-3 win on August 15, with the ’Caps giving up a two-goal lead with 10 minutes remaining. The last time the ’Caps defeated Kansas City was on August 10, 2014. Vancouver won 2-0 on an own goal from Igor Juliao and a score from former striker Darren Mattocks.

MORALES INJURY UPDATE Whitecaps FC captain Pedro Morales missed his third straight match last Saturday due to a left hip flexor injury he suffered in the first half of the April 2 match against LA, but returned to training last week. Before being sidelined with the injury, Morales was leading MLS in goals with four. PARKER V DWYER 'Caps defender Tim Parker and Sporting KC forward Dom Dwyer have travelled similar paths to become the fast-rising MLS stars they are today. Each starred in the Big East Conference where in 2011, Dwyer was named the conference Offensive Player of the Year while playing for the University of South Florida, and Parker and St. John’s University won the conference tournament title. After each was selected late in the first round of the MLS SuperDraft, Parker and Dwyer took advantage of their club's development systems, developing in the USL before becoming regulars in MLS. Parker is currently third in MLS in clearances with 43, and tied with teammate Kendall Waston for eighth in headed clearances with 21. Dwyer is tied for fourth in the league in goals with four. DERBY DOUBLEHEADER Adding to the burgeoning rivalry between the two clubs is their respective affiliates’ first meeting in USL action, kicking off at 5 p.m. PT prior to tonight’s MLS matchup. Whitecaps FC 2 are undefeated through Week 5 with a 2W-0L-2D record, with their two draws coming against MLS-hopeful Sacramento Republic FC and USL-leading LA Galaxy II. The young ’Caps are led by captain Kyle Greig, who has started the season with three goals in four matches. Swope Park Rangers (2W-1L-1D) were handed their first defeat last Saturday, falling 1-0 to Oklahoma City Energy FC.

Sporting KC Game Notes | April 27, 2016 at Vancouver Whitecaps FC | SportingKC.com/Game-Notes #VANvSKC: HEAD-TO-HEAD

#SJvSKC: BY THE NUMBERS

Sporting KC holds the upper hand in the regular season series with a 5-1-2 record, including a 2-1-1 mark at Vancouver. Peter Vermes’ men swept the 2015 set with a pair of one-goal wins that came in dissimilar fashion. Sporting KC scrapped out a 1-0 road result on July 12, receiving a second-half header from Kevin Ellis, before winning 4-3 in spectacular fashion on Aug. 15 at Children’s Mercy Park. Kekuta Manneh bagged a first-half brace and Pedro Morales made it 3-1 in the 75th minute, but the ensuing comeback matched a feat that had been done just one other time in MLS history. Sporting KC erased a two-goal deficit in the final 10 minutes plus stoppage time behind a header from Dom Dwyer and a brace from Paulo Nagamura. Wednesday marks the second meeting of 2016 between the sides. Sporting KC ran out 2-1 winners on March 12 at Children’s Mercy Park, propelled by Dom Dwyer’s first-half brace. His opener in the fifth minute was a stunning 28-yard strike, while his second came from point blank range following a wellworked buildup from Graham Zusi and Chance Myers. Morales cut the deficit in half with a penalty kick late in the game, but Sporting KC would hold on for all three points. Vancouver’s lone victory in the series came on Aug. 10, 2014, at BC Place. An own goal from Sporting KC and a Darren Mattocks strike assisted by Morales sealed the result before halftime. This was also Sporting KC’s most recent regular season defeat to a Cascadia club, having gone 6-0-4 with seven shutouts ever since.

Sporting KC Game Notes | April 27, 2016 at Vancouver Whitecaps FC | SportingKC.com/Game-Notes KINGS OF CASCADIA

SPORTING KANSAS CITY NEWS AND NOTES BESLER ON THE BRINK OF 200

Sporting KC is unbeaten in 10 straight regular season games against Cascadia clubs (Vancouver, Portland and Seattle) since the start of 2015, including seven shutouts and a 6-0-4 record. Perhaps more impressively, Sporting KC has become the first team in MLS history to go unbeaten in five straight regular season road games against Cascadia foes, posting a clean sheet in every match during the streak. Peter Vermes’ men have gone 501 regular season minutes without allowing a goal in the Pacific Northwest, last conceding in a 2-0 loss at Vancouver on Aug. 10, 2014, when Andy Gruenebaum was between the posts for Sporting KC. Defender Matt Besler and goalkeeper Tim Melia have featured in all five away games during the streak.

Sporting KC captain and center back Matt Besler could play his 200th MLS match on Wednesday (including playoffs). He has started 194 of his 199 career MLS appearances since joining Kansas City out of the 2009 MLS SuperDraft. His 224 appearances in all competitions rank seventh in club history, while his 19,640 minutes played rank sixth.

DWYER AND ZUSI CLIMBING THE CHARTS

The eight-year MLS veteran is a four-time MLS All-Star (2011, 2013-15) and was named the 2012 MLS Defender of the Year. He has been a regular fixture on the U.S. Men’s National Team since debuting in 2013 and started all four matches for the Yanks at the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil. A pair of MLS All-Stars continue their rise up Sporting KC’s all-time regular season charts. Graham Zusi ranks second in club history with 46 assists, while Dom Dwyer has climbed to fourth with 40 regular season goals. Dwyer now has 49 career goals for Sporting KC in all competitions, third in club history and four shy of tying Davy Arnaud for second. Zusi, meanwhile, recorded his 24th game-winning MLS assist (including playoffs) in a 2-0 victory at the New York Red Bulls on April 9. That ties Preki for the club’s all-time lead.

CONQUERING CANADA

Sporting KC is 25-8-8 against Major League Soccer’s three Canadian clubs in the regular season. Those 25 wins are more than any other MLS team. Furthermore, Sporting KC’s 10 road wins on Canadian soil are tied with D.C. United for most in MLS, while their .625 winning percentage in such games (10-5-5) is best in the league. Peter Vermes’ men are 9-3-3 in regular season visits to Canada since 2011 and have won six straight games against clubs north of the border. The last loss was a 2-0 setback at Vancouver on Aug. 10, 2014.

ROAD TRIPPIN’

Sporting KC concludes a three-game road swing Wednesday at Vancouver Whitecaps FC, having visited FC Dallas (April 17) and San Jose (Sunday) in their previous two fixtures. After a home date with LA Galaxy this Sunday, Sporting KC goes wheels up again with games at the Houston Dynamo (May 7) and Colorado Rapids (May 11).

MASTERFUL MELIA

Sporting KC goalkeeper Tim Melia is off to a strong start in 2016. The reigning MLS Comeback Player of the Year is tied for the MLS lead with three shutouts while ranking second in save percentage (78.9) and wins (four). He also ranks third with 30 saves.

A win at New York on April 9 saw Peter Vermes’ men earn consecutive road wins for the first time since July 2014. More impressively, Sporting KC became just the second team in MLS history (joining the 2010 LA Galaxy) to secure shutout wins at Red Bull Arena and CenturyLink Field in Seattle in the same season. The feat is all the more impressive given the fact that visiting teams to New York and Seattle have emerged with victories just 19 percent of the time (45-133-45) since 2010.

In a 2-0 victory at the New York Red Bulls on April 9, Melia became the first keeper in Sporting KC history to notch at least six saves and one penalty kick save while earning a shutout victory. Five other players have made at least six stops and saved one penalty in a match, but only Tony Meola added a clean sheet, and none posted a shutout win.

Sporting KC’s 24 regular season road wins from 2012-2014 were the most over a three-year span during Major League Soccer’s non-shootout era (2000-present). Kansas City went 24-17-10 over that period, securing at least seven more road wins than any other team. Sporting KC’s travels in 2015 were less successful as the team went 4-9-4, their worst road record since 2008 (2-8-5).

DAVIS BECOMES THE FIFTH TO 400

Winger Brad Davis became the fifth player in MLS history to reach 400 MLS appearances when Sporting KC faced FC Dallas on April 17. Davis is only the third field player to reach the milestone and the third active player to join the 400 club, alongside Real Salt Lake duo Nick Rimando and Kyle Beckerman.

SAN JOSE SWOON CONTINUES

Sporting KC suffered a third straight defeat on Sunday after falling 1-0 to the San Jose Earthquakes at Avaya Stadium. Chris Wondolowski’s 59th-minute penalty kick separated the sides as San Jose extended its home unbeaten streak against Sporting KC to 18 MLS matches dating back to 2000. Remarkably, the last 13 games during that streak have decided by a goal or less.

All-time MLS appearances (including playoffs) 1. Kevin Hartman 465 (416 regular season) Retired GK 2. Nick Rimando 433 (400 regular season) Active GK 3. Kyle Beckerman 416 (385 regular season) Active MID 4. Steve Ralston 412 (378 regular season) Retired MID 5. Brad Davis 401 (374 regular season) Active MID

Wondolowski’s spot kick came just four minutes after Sporting KC were denied a penalty of their own when Dom Dwyer fell under Andres Imperiale’s sliding challenge. The result dropped Sporting KC (4-4-0, 12 points) to sixth in the Western Conference table, two points behind fifth-place San Jose (4-2-2, 14 points).

Davis has recorded 59 goals and 131 assists (including postseason) during a 15year MLS career highlighted by 2006 and 2007 MLS Cup championships, 2011 MLS Best XI honors and six MLS All-Star selections. His 374 appearances and 122 assists in the regular season are both third most in MLS history. A native of Missouri, Davis ended his 10-year stay in Houston as the Dynamo’s all-time leader in regular season games played (271), starts (252) and assists (104). In addition to winning two MLS Cups, Davis led Houston to seven playoff trips from 2006-2015, including MLS Cup appearances in 2006, 2007, 2011 and 2012.

SHOT IN THE DARK

Sporting KC has suffered three straight defeats despite out-shooting their opponent in each match. During the non-shootout era (2000-present), only two other times in team history has Sporting KC out-shot its opponent in every match of a three-game losing streak. It first occurred in June and July 2006 and happened again in September 2010. Over the last three games against Colorado, FC Dallas and San Jose, Sporting KC has a 44-30 shots advantage.

DEFENDING THE OPEN CUP

Sporting KC enters the 2016 season as defending champions of the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup. Peter Vermes’ side defeated the Philadelphia Union in a penalty shootout after a 1-1 draw through regulation to win the 2015 final on Sept. 30, effectively securing a spot in the 2016-17 CONCACAF Champions League. The Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup has been held annually since 1914 and is open to all amateur/professional soccer teams affiliated with U.S. Soccer. The knockout-style tournament is the oldest ongoing national soccer competition in the U.S. and the world’s third-longest running open soccer tournament. This year’s winner will earn $250,000 and a berth into the 2017-18 CONCACAF Champions League. Sporting KC has won the tournament on three occasions (2004, 2012, 2015), third-most among MLS clubs behind Seattle and Chicago who have four titles apiece. All 17 American MLS clubs will enter the 2016 Open Cup in the round of 32 in June.

CHAMPIONS LEAGUE ON THE HORIZON

Courtesy of the club’s 2015 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup championship, Sporting KC will compete in the group stage of the 2016-17 CONCACAF Champions League, set to begin in August. 2016 marks the third time in four years that Sporting KC has featured in the international competition, which involves the top clubs from North America, Central America and the Caribbean. The tournament winner will qualify as CONCACAF’s representative at the 2017 FIFA Club World Cup. Sporting KC joins the Portland Timbers (2015 MLS Cup winner), New York Red Bulls (2015 Supporters’ Shield winner), FC Dallas (2015 Western Conference first place finisher) and Vancouver Whitecaps FC (2015 Canadian Championship winner) as MLS representatives in the 2016-17 CONCACAF Champions League.

PETER THE GREAT

Last season Peter Vermes passed Bob Gansler as the winningest coach in Sporting KC history, ending 2015 with 90 regular season wins and 113 victories across all competitions. Vermes has coached 261 matches for Kansas City in all competitions with a 117-83-61 record, nine games shy of tying Gansler’s 270game record. Vermes’ 94 regular season victories are eighth most in MLS history and fourth most among active coaches behind Sigi Schmid (224), Bruce Arena (194) and Dominic Kinnear (156). Now in his eighth MLS season, Vermes ties Bob Gansler (1999-2006) as the club’s longest-tenured manager.

Sporting KC Coach Bios | April 27, 2016 at Vancouver Whitecaps 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 enters his eighth season as Sporting Kansas City Manager in 2016. He is tied as the team’s longest-serving manager and his 117 coaching victories in all competitions are the most club history. During his tenure, he has won three major trophies – the 2012 and 2015 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cups and the 2013 MLS Cup championship – as well as two MLS Eastern Conference regular season titles (2011, 2012). He is the second coach to lead Sporting KC to five 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 94 regular season wins top the club’s all-time chart and rank eighth 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.

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. 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 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. 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 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 184 MLS matches and playing more than 16,000 minutes. He was nominated on the players’ ballot for the National Soccer Hall of Fame from 2007-2012. In 2013, Vermes was inducted into the National Soccer Hall of Fame. Year

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.

Assistant Coach | John Pascarella Assistant Coach John Pascarella played professionally for nine seasons before beginning his coaching career in 1998 at the University of Maryland. Pascarella played club soccer with Sporting Kansas City Technical Director Peter Vermes. His playing experience took him to Peru before he returned to the United States to play in the A-League and MLS.

Fitness Coach | Mateus Manoel

Once his playing career was over, Pascarella began coaching as a member of Sasho Cirovski’s staff at Maryland. He then went on to work in Northern Virginia youth soccer circles as a high school coach and Olympic Development Program coach before becoming the Head Coach and Technical Director of the Northern Virginia Royals of the USL’s Premier Development League for two seasons.

Mateus Manoel is in his seventh season with Sporting KC as Head Fitness Coach. His responsibilities cover all aspects of sport performance and science for the team, including strength and conditioning, injury prevention, field practices, nutrition, fitness monitoring (training load and readiness), player re-adaptation following rehab and recovery.

Pascarella joined Kansas City’s technical staff in 2009 and was a goalkeeper and fitness coach until 2011, when he became an assistant.

In the summer of 2010, Manoel was an Assistant Fitness Coach for the U.S. Men’s National Soccer Team during the FIFA World Cup in South Africa. He had formerly served as the Head Fitness Coach for the Mexican Men’s National Team in 2009, working with renowned coach Sven-Goran Eriksson. During 2007 and 2008, Manoel held a position with Athletes’ Performance in the Home Depot Center in Los Angeles, where he worked with professional athletes from a variety of sports, including NFL, NHL, MLB and MLS (Chivas USA and LA Galaxy). Previously, he had assisted with strength and conditioning for D.C. United from the MLS, while concurrently holding the position of Sports Performance Director with Velocity Sports Performance in Alexandria, Virginia. Manoel holds a Master’s degree in Exercise Physiology from George Washington University, where he was also responsible for the strength and conditioning needs of the Colonials Men’s Varsity Soccer Team. He also holds a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology from the University of Maryland - College Park and is a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist through the National Strength and Conditioning Association. Manoel was born in Brazil and is fluent in both Portuguese and Spanish.
