SPORTING KANSAS CITY vs TORONTO FC TOYOTA PARK, Bridgeview, Ill. May 23, 2014 (WEEK 12, MLS Game #105) 7:30 p.m. CT (UDN; KMCI-38; TSN2) An intriguing matchup of Eastern Conference sides kicks off the MLS weekend as Sporting Kansas City play host to Toronto FC on Friday evening at Sporting Park. SKC come into the game still holding onto second place in the division, but after successive defeats, last at the Chicago Fire. TFC put an end to their three-game losing slide last weekend with a 2-0 home win against New York, five points behind KC but with three fewer matches played. REFEREE: Baldomero Toledo.

TFC’s last win in Kansas City came March 21, 2009, a 3-2 victory at CommunityAmerica Ballpark.  Over the last four seasons, Toronto FC have defeated Sporting KC just once in five meetings at BMO Field, that coming in a 2-1 victory last March 9.  Coaches record: Peter Vermes vs. TOR: P10 W7 L1 T2 … Ryan Nelsen vs. KC: P3 W1 L2 T0 SPORTING KANSAS CITY Sporting Kansas City suffered their second consecutive loss, falling 2-1 to the Chicago Fire on Sunday afternoon at Toyota Park. Sporting sit in a tie for second place in the Eastern Conference with 17 points from 11 games. LAST MATCH  The Fire got off to a perfect start Quincy Amarikwa was taken down in the box as he rounded goalkeeper Eric Kronberg following a precise through ball from Harry Shipp. Mike Magee stepped up to take the resulting penalty and kept his nerve superbly to roll the ball into the bottom left corner.  The home side then doubled their lead eight minutes later when debutant Erik Palmer-Brown shoved Benji Joya in the back just inside the area. Magee got his second chance from 12 yards and slotted home to the same side to double the Fire advantage.  Sporting were a man when Palmer-Brown's debut ended early, in the 64th minute, after being shown a second yellow card for a late, sliding challenge on Amarikwa at midfield.  The visitors pulled a goal back in the 68th minute when Dom Dwyer found himself unmarked at the far post to power in Benny Feilhaber's free kick from the right wing, but that would be all the joy SKC would find on the day.  Sporting manager Peter Vermes made five changes to the team that fell 2-1 to Philadelphia Union at Sporting Park. Chance Myers, Erik Palmer-Brown, Jacob Peterson, Antonio Dovale and Dom Dwyer all came into the team, in place of Aurelien Collin, Matt Besler, Oriol Rosell, Sal Zizzo and Graham Zusi.  SPORTING KANSAS CITY (3-3-2-2): Eric Kronberg - Chance Myers, Erik Palmer-Brown (ejected 64), Seth Sinovic - Jacob Peterson (Soony Saad 84), Paulo Nagamura, Igor Juliao - Benny Feilhaber, Antonio Dovale (Alex Martinez 71) - Claudio Bieler (Kevin Ellis 67), Dom Dwyer.

MLS GAME INFORMATION


TEAM NEWS  Sporting have dropped back-to-back games for the first time this season, the first time since last Aug. 18-23, when they suffered consecutive 1-0 defeats at San Jose and Chicago.  “We had quite a few chances at the end. We were in and around their [defensive zone] more than they were in ours, and we were taking the chances. We were leaving ourselves a little exposed,” SKC manager Peter Vermes said. “I thought the guys did a great job, especially in the second half. As we well know, the MLS season is very long and we’ll be competitive, that’s for sure.”  The Defoe goal was also the first allowed by SKC in the first half this season, their first conceded in the opening 45 minutes since last Oct. 5 vs. Philadelphia, a span of 14 matches.  Erik Palmer-Brown made his MLS debut at 17 years of age – the youngest defender to start a game in league history.  “Obviously, this was not the easiest of situations,” Vermes said. “Unfortunately, it is what it is, and sometimes you get baptized by getting thrown into the fire. He did a little bit. I thought in a lot of situations he was actually very good. But it was about him getting his debut. It put a lot of pressure on him today to have to come in and step in, and I thought he did a lot with the opportunity.”  Palmer-Brown was the only natural center back available in the Sporting squad. Matt Besler and Lawrence Olum were called into the national teams of the USA and Kenya respectively, Aurelien Collin was sidelined by a recurring hamstring strain, and Ike Opara is out after season-ending ankle surgery.  “You have to deal with adversity. I think it’s better to deal with it early on in the season rather than at the end of the season, based on the fact that then you know how to deal with it,” Vermes said. “We are in a difficult position at the moment based on our central defender situation. It has forced us to change a little bit in our formation, stuff like that. But at the same time, I think the team did well.”  With the lack of central defenders, Vermes lined out his team with three defenders, nominal fullbacks Chance Myers and Seth Sinovic also playing centrally in the back line. Jacob Peterson and Igor Juliao filled wide midfield roles.  “It's a little bit of a challenge for the group, but we've got more than enough guys that have capabilities of playing the game. We'll figure out some concoction,” Vermes said.  Claudio Bieler and Dom Dwyer formed the strike partnership for the first time ever with Sporting, simply together on the field for the first time with the club. TORONTO FC Toronto FC put an end to their three-game losing streak in impressive fashion, defeating the New York Red Bulls 2-0 on Saturday afternoon at BMO Field. TFC sit in a tie for seventh place in the Eastern Conference, with 12 points from 8 matches. LAST MATCH  TFC took the lead in the 12th minute. From a lightning-quick counter, Bradley Orr slid a perfectly-weighted through ball into the path of Jermain Defoe, and he cracked a rocket of a shot into the top corner of the net, beating Red Bulls goalkeeper Luis Robles.  Well into second-half stoppage time Toronto FC finished off the match thanks to a fortuitous bounce. A long clearance from Joe Bendik from his own penalty area was not claimed by Robles as he collided with a teammate at the top of the Red Bulls box, and Luke Moore walked the ball into the open goal to open his TFC account.  TFC head coach Ryan Nelsen made four changes to the team that suffered a 2-1 loss to the New England Revolution at BMO Field. Joseph Bendik came in between the posts, and Nick Hagglund, Alvaro Rey and Bradley Orr all came into the team, with Michael Bradley on international duty and Julio Cesar, Doneil Henry and Jackson out of the team.  TORONTO FC (4-4-2): Joseph Bendik - Mark Bloom, Nick Hagglund, Steven Caldwell, Justin Morrow - Alvaro Rey (Daniel Lovitz 68), Bradley Orr, Kyle Bekker, Jonathan Osorio - Jermain Defoe, Gilberto (Luke Moore 56). TEAM NEWS  Toronto FC put an end their losing slide after three matches, the club’s longest since losing five in a row last April 27-May 25.  Jermain Defoe netted his first goal since March 22 – when he scored his third goal in his first two MLS games – after he was named as an alternate to the England squad for the FIFA World Cup.  “It’s only normal when you get a disappointment to try to prove people wrong, and just to remind people, at the end of the day, this is what I’m doing,” Defoe said. “I think I did that today. I think that’s a job well done,”  Luke Moore made his TFC debut after being acquired from Colorado via Chivas USA, and scored his first MLS goal in his seventh appearance in the league.  “I think any striker would take three or four of those a season. I kind of gambled and got out of the way a little bit and was lucky it dropped into my path,” Moore said. “You just say a little thank you to the gods. It’s a bit of a gift. You’ve got to be there to put it in so I was happy with it. It was a great little gift for me.”

With Julio Cesar about to join the Brazil national team in preparation for the FIFA World Cup, Joe Bendik recorded his first shutout of the season, the third in 2014 for TFC. After featuring in the back four for each of his previous four starts, Bradley Orr was moved into the center of midfield and recorded his first MLS start on the opening goal. “We just needed some balance. We were always going to the get the chances at BMO with the quality of players that we have up top,” TFC head coach Ryan Nelsen said. “And I just thought we needed that defensive balance that kind of screens Henry and Wright-Phillips, so nothing can really get into their feet ... It was a defensive move that was hoping to be a kind of offensive move. But Brad amongst many was superb and played really well. Nick Hagglund came back into the team for his second start in MLS, playing in central defense. “Doneil just played 120 minutes, he had a sore quad and he got a bit of a head knock and just felt like he needed a rest,” Nelsen said. “Nick deserved his chance and in this game you have to take those chances.” The day before the New York match, there was a major trade between Toronto FC and the Montréal Impact, with TFC receiving Collen Warner is exchange for Issey Nakajima-Farran and allocation money. “I feel sorry for Issey because we brought him in and he’s done nothing wrong,” Nelsen said. “Unfortunately, when we have all our players back, it would be hard to see him starting on the team whereas with Collen, he’ll start. He’s a starting player and he hasn’t even come to his peak in age. He’s a guy that we targeted and glad he’s going to be walking through the door.”

Sporting KC news & Notes Matt Besler and Graham Zusi selected to USMNT roster Sporting Kansas City defender Matt Besler and midfielder Graham Zusi are among 30 players on the United States Men’s National Team’s preliminary roster for the 2014 FIFA World Cup, U.S. Soccer announced on May 12.

Sporting KC Game Notes | May 23, 2014 vs Toronto FC| SportingKC.com/Game-Notes

Sporting KC news & Notes (cont.) Bright history versus Toronto FC Sporting KC is 10-4-4 all time vs. Toronto FC, 7-1-1 at home and a perfect 4-0-0 at Sporting Park. Sporting KC’s .667 winning percentage against the Canadian club is their highest against any MLS team with a minimum of five matches played. Sporting KC has lost just one of the last 10 meetings between the teams, winning seven.

U.S. Open Cup opponent U.S. Soccer has announced the pairings and match locations for all fourth round scenarios in the 2014 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup. Sporting KC will host the third round winner between the Des Moines Menace (USASA) and Minnesota United FC (NASL) on June 18 at Sporting Park. Des Moines hosts Minnesota United on May 28. The U.S. Open Cup, recognized as U.S. Soccer’s national championship, is an annual competition open to all amateur and professional teams affiliated with U.S. soccer. The oldest annual team tournament in American sports history has its origins in 1914 and is named after Sporting KC’s original founder Lamar Hunt. Sporting KC are two-time champions in the competition, winning the title in 2004 and 2012.

17-year-old Palmer-Brown makes his debut Sporting KC homegrown defender Erik Palmer-Brown earned his MLS debut and first start for the club in Sunday’s 2-1 loss to at the Chicago Fire. In doing so, he became the youngest player in MLS history to start a regular season match as a defender. Palmer-Brown received a red card in the 64th minute after picking up his second caution of the match.

Dwyer on fire Dom Dwyer scored for the third straight MLS match in Sporting KC’s 2-1 loss at the Chicago Fire on Sunday. In doing so, the English forward became the 10th player in Sporting KC history to score in at least three consecutive regular season appearances. If Dwyer scores in his next League match, he will become just the third player in team history to score in four straight regular season games. Dwyer’s spot on Week 11’s MLSsoccer.com Team of the Week marks the third time he has earned such honors this season. Goal.com’s MLS Team of the Week also featured the 23-year-old Englishman, whose eight goals are tied for second most in the League. Only one player in club history has scored more goals through the season’s first 11 games than Dwyer, as Eddie Johnson struck nine times in 2007.

19-year-old Juliao impresses in first two starts Sporting KC defender Igor Juliao started his first game for the club in May 14’s 2-1 home loss to Philadelphia. He became the third youngest player in club history to start a league match (now fourth youngest after Erik Palmer-Brown’s debut on Sunday) and the youngest player in team history to go the full 90 minutes in a regular season match. The 19-year-old Brazilian wasted no time garnering League honors, as he was named to Sports Illustrated’s Week 11 MLS Best XI for his active displays on the backline. On loan from Fluminense FC through the end of 2014, Juliao led all players in tackles (6) and tackles won (5), while accumulating the second most touches (88) and winning the second most duels (9) among players who featured in Sporting KC’s loss to Philadelphia.

Kronberg excelling between the posts In his first season as Sporting KC’s starting goalkeeper, Eric Kronberg leads MLS with a 0.91 goals against average among goalkeepers with more than three matches played. He has allowed 10 goals in 2014, five of which have come from the penalty spot. Kronberg is also tied for the MLS lead with five shutouts this season, and his five victories are tied for second most wins in the League.

Paying the penalty Sporting KC has now conceded five penalty kicks through 11 matches this season, most in MLS and already fifth-most most for a single season in franchise history. The team conceded seven penalties in 1998 and 2007 and six penalties in 2000 and 2006.

First half lockdown

Ellis recalled from OKC Energy FC

Sporting KC has yet to concede a goal from the run of play in the first half during 2014, marking 15 consecutive matches during the MLS regular season that Sporting KC has not given up a such a goal in the first half dating back to 2013. The team allowed two first-half goals in their 2-1 loss at Chicago on Sunday, but both were penalty kicks from Mike Magee.

Homegrown defender Kevin Ellis rejoined Sporting KC May 16 after less than four weeks on loan with USL Pro affiliate OKC Energy FC. He saw 23 minutes of action Sunday vs. Chicago as a second half substitute. The Kansas City, Mo. native started three of Sporting KC’s first four MLS matches of 2014 and scored his first goal for the club in the first leg of the 2014 CONCACAF Champions League quarterfinals vs. eventual champion Cruz Azul. He joined OKC Energy FC on loan April 21.

Players on loan Sporting KC has partnered with USL PRO clubs Orlando City SC and OKC Energy FC for the 2014 season. As part of the agreement, Sporting KC will loan players to the clubs to play games and gain experience throughout the year. Generation adidas member Mikey Lopez is with Orlando City SC, while OKC Energy FC features two homegrown players, goalkeeper John Kempin and midfielder Christian Duke. Former Sporting KC goalkeeper Jimmy Nielsen is the head coach of the expansion OKC Energy FC. Lopez has made seven league appearances and logged 136 minutes of action for unbeaten Orlando City SC, who currently sit atop the USL Pro standings (7-0-3, 24 points). At OKC Energy FC, Kempin has made seven starts with 22 saves and Duke has contributed one assist in six appearances (416 minutes).

Sporting Park sellout streak Sporting Park has sold out 42 straight MLS matches, including four playoff games. The last time Sporting KC didn’t play in front of a sellout crowd was March 25, 2012. In those 42 matches, Sporting KC is 24-9-9, has recorded 15 shutouts, and has outscored its opponents 54-31.

Late-game goals hurting Sporting KC In three of Sporting KC’s four regular season defeats, the opponent has scored the game winning goal in the 81st minute or later. Seattle Sounders grabbed a 94th-minute goal in the season opener on March 8, Teal Bunbury struck a 92nd-minute winner on April 26 to knock off his former club, and Cristian Maidana scored in the 81st minute to give Philadelphia a 2-1 road win on May 14 Sporting KC also conceded a 90th-minute equalizer to FC Dallas on March 15. Peter Vermes’ men have dropped five points in the final 10 minutes of action plus stoppage time in 2014.

Vermes’ men set records in 3-0 defeat of Montreal Sporting KC recorded a record-setting 3-0 win over the Montreal Impact on May 10. The MLS Cup champions attempted 803 passes and completed 739, both League records since the statistic was first tracked by Opta in 2011, for a 92 percent passing accuracy percentage. Midfielder Oriol Rosell led all players with 160 successful passes out of the 166 he attempted, setting single-game records by an MLS player since 2011. Sporting KC also had 78.18 percent possession, the highest percentage in an MLS match since 2011. Among midfielders with at least 100 completed passes in 2014, Rosell has a 90.04 completion percentage, the best mark in MLS. The Spanish midfielder’s 87.05 completion percentage in the opponent’s half in 2014 is also best in the League.
