Sporting KC Game Notes | June 12, 2022 vs. New England Revolution | SportingKC.com/Game-Notes #SKCvNE: HEAD-TO-HEAD

#SKCvNE: BY THE NUMBERS

Sporting Kansas City (3-8-4, 13 pts.) returns to MLS action this weekend after a much-needed break following the loss to Vancouver on May 28 when the team hosts the New England Revolution (4-5-4, 16 pts.) at Children’s Mercy Park on Sunday afternoon in a nationally televised contest on ABC and ESPN Deportes.

Both teams are looking to right the ship after disappointing starts to the season, as each side is on the outside of the playoff picture looking in with Sporting 14th in the West and the Revolution 11th in the East - despite finishing as two of the top four teams in MLS in 2021, with New England winning the Supporters’ Shield.

Sporting have not faced off against the Revs since 2019, when the two teams played to a wild 4-4 draw at Children’s Mercy Park on April 27, 2019. Juan Fernando Caicedo gave New England the lead in the 18th minute but Sporting responded quickly and equalized through Krisztian Nemeth. Caicedo bagged his second of the game and Juan Agudelo added a third for the Revs as the visitors went into halftime 3-1 up. Felipe Gutierrez pulled a goal back for Sporting from the penalty spot in the 60th minute - five minutes after Brandon Bye had been shown a straight red card for DOGSO, but New England restored their two-goal advantage shortly after when DeJuan Jones fired home the rebound after Tim Melia had saved Carles Gil’s penalty kick. Sporting were not to be denied and produced a rousing comeback with Gutierrez scoring his second in the 70th minute and Nemeth securing his brace in the 83rd minute to make the final score 4-4.

Sporting leads the all-time regular-season series 25-18-12 against New England but have won just two of their last eight (2-5-1) in MLS play. Sporting is also 14-7-6 at home in the all-time series.

Sporting KC Game Notes | June 12, 2022 vs. New England Revolution | SportingKC.com/Game-Notes BACK AFTER MUCH-NEEDED BREAK

SPORTING KANSAS CITY NEWS AND NOTES

CHILDREN’S MERCY PARK HOSTS SELLOUT USMNT MATCH

Following a 15-day break, Sporting Kansas City returns to action this weekend when the team plays host to the New England Revolution at Children’s Mercy Park in a nationally televised contest on ABC and ESPN Deportes. Sporting closed out a stretch of seven games in 22 days with a 1-0 loss to Vancouver Whitecaps FC on May 28 before the team had last weekend off due to the FIFA international window.

During Sporting Kansas City’s off weekend in MLS action, Children’s Mercy Park was still filled to the brim with passionate fans as the U.S. Men’s National Team hosted Uruguay in Kansas City, Kansas this past Sunday - earning a stout 0-0 draw against the world’s 13th best team per the FIFA rankings.

The international friendly, played in front of a sellout crowd of 19,569, produced an incredible showcase for both Kansas City and Children’s Mercy Park as it was beamed into over a million households in the U.S. across FOX, Univision and TUDN.

Despite battling through a host of injury and suspension issues during the team’s seven matches in May, Sporting actually produced a respectable 3-2-2 record to show for their efforts. Two of the three wins came in the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup as Sporting defeated MLS opponents FC Dallas and Houston Dynamo FC, setting up a mouth-watering Quarterfinal clash with USL League One side Union Omaha on June 22 at Children’s Mercy Park - with Omaha set to bring approximately 600 fans to the match.

The USMNT, currently No. 15 in the FIFA rankings, remain unbeaten all-time in Kansas City (10-0-2) and at Children’s Mercy Park (8-0-2), which has hosted the most U.S. Men’s National Team matches of any venue since the state-of-the-art stadium opened in 2011. A candidate host city for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, KC most recently hosted the USMNT for three victorious group stage matches in the 2021 Concacaf Gold Cup en route to the United States capturing the team’s seventh continental championship.

Despite a decent run in May, the month ended on a sour note with a 1-0 defeat to Vancouver at Children’s Mercy Park. That result put a damper on an otherwise excellent home record in 2022, as Sporting has now gone 5-2-2 at home in all competitions, with the only other loss coming against Nashville SC on April 9.

Two-time World Cup champions, No. 13-ranked Uruguay fell to eventual champions France in the quarterfinals of the 2018 FIFA World Cup. Led by head coach Diego Alonso, Uruguay boasts an array of attacking talent as fans were treated to the sight of Federico Valverde (Real Madrid), Edinson Cavani (Manchester United) and Darwin Nunez (Benfica), to go along with USMNT stars Christian Pulisic (Chelsea), Tyler Adams (RB Leipzig), Weston McKennie (Juventus) and Brenden Aaronson (Leeds United).

While Sporting have had plenty of problems leading to their 3-8-4 record in 2022 after finishing third in the West in 2021, New England are also a shadow of their 2021-selves as they sit 11th in the East with a 4-5-4 record after winning the Supporters’ Shield as the best team in the regular season in 2021.

SALLOI & TZIONIS ON INTERNATIONAL DUTY

Several players have returned to training after missing significant time through injury this season, though Sporting will be without attacking duo Daniel Salloi (Hungary) and Marinos Tzionis (Cyprus) as they continue representing their countries on international duty, while Designated Player duo Alan Pulido and Gadi Kinda are sidelined for the season.

Sporting Kansas City forwards Daniel Salloi and Marinos Tzionis are set to miss Sunday afternoon’s clash with the New England Revolution as the pair are off in Europe representing the Hungary and Cyprus Men’s National Team, respectively, for their first four matches of the 2022-23 UEFA Nations League group stage. Salloi & Tzionis departed for Europe following the 1-0 loss to Vancouver on May 28.

MEETING THE MUSKETMEN

Sporting Kansas City is back in action this Sunday afternoon when the team plays host to 2021 Supporters’ Shield champions the New England Revolution at Children’s Mercy Park in a high-profile matchup set to be nationally televised on ABC and ESPN Deportes. Sporting leads the all-time regular-season series 25-18-12 but are 2-5-1 in their last eight against the Revolution.

After making his debut for Hungary’s senior national team last September, Salloi joined the Magyars once again for four group stage matches in June. Hungary was drawn into Group 3 in the top-flight League A of the Nations League after earning promotion from League B last season. Hungary opened their Nations League campaign by earning a historic 1-0 victory over England at Puskas Arena in Budapest on Saturday, June 4 before falling to Italy on the road 2-1 on June 7. Hungary will now host Germany on June 11 and reunite with England away from home on June 14. Salloi linked up with Hungary for a trio of World Cup qualifiers last September, earning his first senior national team minutes against future group stage opponent England. He earned his first national team start a month later on Oct. 9 in a 1-0 loss to Albania.

Sunday’s match will be the first between Sporting and New England since April 27, 2019, with the two teams being separated in the schedule during the COVID-enforced regionalized schedules throughout 2020 and 2021.

The last showdown between the sides ended in a thrilling 4-4 draw at Children’s Mercy Park back in April 2019. Juan Fernando Caicedo opened the scoring for the visitors before Krisztian Nemeth bagged a quick equalizer for Sporting, only for the Revs to race into a 3-1 halftime lead following another goal from Caicedo and a strike from Juan Agudelo.

Tzionis and Cyprus opened their schedule in UEFA Nations League C during FIFA’s twoweek international window, falling 2-0 to Kosovo at home on June 2 before playing to a 0-0 draw with Northern Ireland on June 5 at AEK Arena in Larnaca, Cyprus. Tzionis will now travel to face Greece on June 9 and Northern Ireland on June 12. One of Cyprus’ best young players, Tzionis scored his first senior international goal on March 29 to spark a 2-0 win over Estonia as the Cypriots avoided relegation to UEFA Nations League D for the 2022-23 cycle. The 20-year-old has already earned 14 caps at the senior level.

After Brandon Bye was sent off for DOGSO in the 55th minute, Felipe Gutierrez pulled a goal back from the penalty spot to make it 3-2 in the 60th minute - only for New England to earn a penalty of their own moments later. Tim Melia denied Carles Gil’s attempt but DeJuan Jones forced home the rebound to restore the Revs’ two-goal advantage.

Sporting rallied back and Gutierrez added his second of the night in the 70th minute before Nemeth tallied a brace of his own to equalize in the 83rd minute and leave both teams with a point.

#SKCvVAN QUOTES

Manager & Sporting Director Peter Vermes...

Thoughts on the match: “I think we tried everything we could. We tried everything. I just don’t think we had enough in the game.”

PLAYERS SLOWLY RETURNING FROM INJURY AFTER BREAK

The current international break provided Sporting Kansas City with an opportunity to rest and recover after a grueling stretch of seven games in 22 days throughout the month of May, while several players were able to work their way back from a multitude of injuries that Sporting KC Manager Peter Vermes has been dealing with as an ever-constant in 2022.

On the team being shutout: “Too many guys we have to move in and out of positions and no routine. It was tough from that perspective, but the guys gave everything. I appreciate that.”

Sporting’s most recent Player Availability Report for the match against Vancouver on May 28 contained nine players - while Daniel Salloi also missed the match through suspension - meaning that over a third of Sporting’s 26-man roster was unavailable for the 1-0 defeat.

On concluding a stretch of seven games in 22 days: “It’ll be good for us to get a break and get ourselves reset and hopefully get a few guys back. That will help with the rotation of players at the moment.”

On what went wrong in the match: “They had a penalty kick and they scored. We had a couple of chances, and we didn’t score them. The guys did the most they could based on the situation and players playing all over the place. They tried at the end.”

Heading into Sunday’s matchup with the New England Revolution, that list has been reduced to five players as Logan Ndenbe, Graham Zusi, Johnny Russell and Khiry Shelton and Marinos Tzionis have all come off the Player Availability Report. However, Salloi (Hungary) and Tzionis (Cyprus) will once again be unavailable as they continue to represent their country in UEFA Nations League play this weekend.

On how the players looked after playing the midweek match: “I don’t think we were flat. I don’t believe we were at all. I actually think we were doing fine. Unfortunately, Uri [Rosell] makes a play and then when he’s getting up the other guy is following the ball, gets to the ball and he doesn’t really see him, causing the penalty. They get the goal. But we were in the game. I don’t know the stat sheet, but I’m not sure if they had a true shot on goal. No, I don’t think we were at all. I don’t think that was the case in the game.”

Sporting were dealt a blow before the season even began with the news that Designated Player Alan Pulido would be out for the season following knee surgery, and that was compounded with a second DP, Gadi Kinda, also being ruled out for the entirity of the campaign on April 29.

Sporting KC Game Notes | June 12, 2022 vs. New England Revolution | SportingKC.com/Game-Notes Manager & Sporting Director | 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 his 14th season as Sporting Kansas City Manager in 2022 and is the longest-tenured active head coach in MLS. He is the team’s longest-serving manager and his 213 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 regularseason standings in 2011 and 2012, as well as the Western Conference in 2018 and 2020. His three U.S. Open Cup championships are the third most in Open Cup history. 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 175 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.

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 2018. 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.

On August 4, 2018, Vermes coached his 302nd MLS regular-season game with Sporting KC, becoming the league’s all-time leader in games coached for one club. He was named the first-ever MLS Sporting Executive of the Year by his peers in 2018. Vermes has coached 495 total games during his Kansas City coaching career, most in club history.

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.

With over 14 years of service at Sporting KC, Vermes is one of the longest serving managers in world soccer. Among all 18 leagues with an average attendance of 10,000+, Vermes ranks second, only behind 2. Bundesliga side FC Heidenheim’s Frank Schmidt (Sept. 17, 2007 – present). Among the top 126 leagues in the world as denoted by the CIES Football Observatory, Vermes’ tenure at Sporting KC ranks as the sixth longest active run.

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.

Vermes oversees all soccer operations for Sporting KC, including the active roster, Sporting Kansas City II (MLS NEXT Pro) 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.

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.

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.

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.

Vermes was an integral part of a young U.S. team at the 1990 World Cup in Italy, where he nearly scored 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 Figueres of the Spanish Second Division.

Goalkeeper Coach | Alec Dufty Goalkeeper coach Alec Dufty is in his sixth season with Sporting Kansas City having been introduced to the organization as the Sporting KC II goalkeeper coach in the side’s inaugural season in 2016. In his first season working with Sporting KC’s goalkeepers, starting goalkeeper Tim Melia enjoyed a record-breaking season where he was named the 2017 MLS Goalkeeper of the Year.

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.

Vermes joined Kansas City in 2000 for what would be the most successful season 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 2010, Dufty joined USSF D2 Pro League side AC St. Louis, making 30 appearances before returning to MLS with the Chicago Fire in late 2010.
