Sporting KC Game Notes | June 3, 2018 vs. Minnesota United FC | SportingKC.com/Game-Notes #SKCvMIN: HEAD-TO-HEAD

#SKCvMIN: BY THE NUMBERS

Sporting Kansas City welcomes Minnesota United FC to Children’s Mercy Park this Sunday, June 3 just two weeks after facing off against the same opponent on the road at TCF Bank Stadium. Sporting KC has only played one of its four previous MLS meetings with Minnesota at Children’s Mercy Park - going 1-0-0 at home and 0-1-2 while in Minneapolis.

Sporting KC’s lone home match against Minnesota came exactly one year ago - on June 3, 2017 - and resulted in a 3-0 victory for Peter Vermes’ men. Ike Opara’s longdistance effort gave Sporting KC the lead late in the first half before Jimmy Medranda headed home a second after Soony Saad’s effort had richoeted off the underside of the bar early in the second period. Saad Abdul-Salaam added a third late in the day with his first career goal as SKC saw out a comfortable 3-0 win.

The most recent clash between Sporting KC and Minnesota United saw the two sides split the points on May 20, 2018 at TCF Bank Stadium. Khiry Shelton thundered home Johnny Russell’s corner with a powerful header in the eighth minute for his first goal for the club, only for Darwin Quintero to equalize 12 minutes later after Tim Melia was unable to hold his first attempt. Sporting KC would press forward looking for a winner in the second half, outshooting Minnesota 24-6 and forcing goalkeeper Bobby Shuttleworth into a career-high nine saves, but were unable to find a second goal.

Sporting KC and Minnesota have also faced off twice in the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup in recent years, with Sporting advancing on both occasions in the Fourth Round. In 2016, Diego Rubio scored an extra-time winner as SKC advanced 2-1 before Sporting saw off Minnesota once again in 2017 in more comfortable fashion by a 4-0 scoreline at Children’s Mercy Park.

Sporting KC Game Notes | June 3, 2018 vs. Minnesota United FC | SportingKC.com/Game-Notes UNBEATEN STREAK REACHES FOUR

SPORTING KANSAS CITY NEWS AND NOTES

BESLER ZEROES IN ON 240

Sporting KC captain Matt Besler continues to rewrite the history books. The MLS veteran is one shy of his 240th career regular season appearance for SKC, which would tie the team record currently held by Davy Arnaud (2002-2011). A regular staple of the club’s backline over the last decade, Besler is already the club’s leader in regular season starts (233) and minutes played (21,001). In all competitions, Besler’s 281 appearances for the club rank second only behind current assistant coach Kerry Zavagnin’s 291.

Sporting Kansas City extended its unbeaten streak to four matches following Sunday’s 0-0 draw with Columbus Crew SC at Children’s Mercy Park, having gone 2-0-2 since the side’s last defeat against the New England Revolution on April 28. Sporting KC responded to that defeat with wins over the Colorado Rapids (May 5) and Atlanta United FC (May 9) before settling for draws against Minnesota United (May 20) and Columbus Crew SC (May 27).

In his 10 seasons with Sporting KC, Besler has helped the club win four major championships - the 2013 MLS Cup and U.S. Open Cup titles in 2012, 2015 and 2017 - and advance to the MLS Cup Playoffs on seven occasions. The 2012 MLS Defender of the Year is a two-time Best XI selection (2012-2013), a five-time MLS All-Star (2011, 2013-16) and has garnered Sporting KC Defender of the Year honors four times.

Much of Sporting KC’s success has been down to goalscoring and finding points on the road, as the side is 3-1-2 on the road this season, already eclipsing their road wins total from the 2017 season, when Sporting went 2-8-7 on the road. Similarly, Sporting KC has scored 11 away goals this season (1.83 per game), surpassing the club’s total of 10 from the 2017 campaign (0.6 per game). Sporting KC’s 24 goals ranks fifth in MLS behind Atlanta United (27), the Houston Dynamo (27) the New York Red Bulls (26) and New York City FC (26).

Besler has enjoyed a strong start to 2018, playing every minute of Sporting KC’s first 13 matches of the campaign. In addition to anchoring a backline that has posted six clean sheets in its last nine games, Besler ranks third in MLS with 795 successful passes and places seventh on the league charts with 59 clearances.

Sporting KC is riding their second unbeaten streak of the season, having gone seven games unbeaten (5-0-2) between March 10 and April 20 and now four games unbeaten (2-0-2) from May 5 to present day. Sporting has responded to both losses this season with wins, as the side followed up the 2-0 loss to New York City FC on opening night with a 4-3 victory over the Chicago Fire at Toyota Park before beating the Colorado Rapids 1-0 on May 5 after the loss to New England on April 28.

Besler has earned 47 caps for the United States Men’s National Team since debuting in January 2013 with one goal and one assist. He was on the U.S. roster for the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil, becoming the first Kansan to play in the World Cup. He also helped lead the U.S. to the 2013 and 2017 CONCACAF Gold Cup titles.

Sunday’s matchup with Minnesota United FC features a rematch of a game played just two weeks prior, when Sporting KC visited TCF Bank Stadium on May 20 and played out a 1-1 draw. Khiry Shelton opened the scoring with his first goal for the club before Darwin Quintero bundled home an equalizer shortly afterwards. Minnesota survived a second-half onslaught from Sporting KC and escaped the match with a point.

RUSSELL LINKS UP WITH SCOTLAND NATIONAL TEAM

Sporting Kansas City forward Johnny Russell has been rewarded for his fine form in the 2018 MLS season with a recall to Scotland’s National Team for a friendly against Mexico at Estadio Azteca in Mexico City this Saturday, June 2 at 7 p.m. CT.

SCHEDULING LOONACY

Russell is in line for his fifth cap for his country since his last selection to the Scotland team on Oct. 11, 2015, when he featured in a 6-0 win over Gibraltar in UEFA Euro 2016 Qualifying. The 28-year-old has made four appearances for Scotland’s senior team, debuting in a friendly against England in November 2014. In Scotland’s 24-man squad assembled by head coach Alex McLeish, Russell is the only player to play club soccer outside of Great Britain.

Sporting Kansas City remains at home this weekend as the side prepares to face Minnesota United FC for the second time in the space of two weeks. Sporting visited Minneapolis on Sunday, May 20 to play out a 1-1 draw at TCF Bank Stadium as part of the club’s current four-game unbeaten streak. It’s a similar circumstance to the 2017 season, where Sporting KC played in Minneapolis on May 7 before hosting United in Kansas City a year to the day from this weekend’s match - on June 3, 2017.

Russell has started all 13 matches for Sporting KC this season as the side holds a twopoint lead at the Western Conference summit with a 7-2-4 record. He opened his scoring account in a thrilling 4-3 win over Chicago on March 10 and bagged his second goal in a 2-0 road victory over the LA Galaxy on April 8. Russell then exploded for a hat-trick in the 6-0 demolition of Vancouver Whitecaps FC on April 20. Russell also has three assists to his name. The Scotsman leads MLS with three penalties earned and is second with 92 touches in the opponent’s box.

Sporting KC has gone 1-1-2 in MLS regular-season play against Minnesota United FC since the Loons joined the league ahead of the 2017 season, though only one of those matches has taken place at Children’s Mercy Park. That sole meeting took place last June 3, with Peter Vermes’ side cruising to a 3-0 victory.

Toward the end of the first half, Ike Opara smashed home a low shot from distance that left Bobby Shuttleworth stranded in the Minnesota goal, before Jimmy Medranda nodded home the rebound after Soony Saad’s thunderous effort had come off the underside of the crossbar moments into the second half. Saad Abdul-Salaam slid home his first career goal late in the match to seal all three points for Sporting KC.

Russell had scored 93 goals over a 12-year period in England and his native Scotland.

He joined SKC after five seasons with Derby County in the English Championship, where he scored 34 goals in 203 total appearances. As a youth international, Russell represented Scotland at the U-19 and U-21 levels. He netted twice in 10 matches for the U-19s between 2007-2010, then logged 11 appearances for the Scotland U-21s from 2010-2012, tallying one goal in 2013 UEFA U-21 European Championship Qualifying.

The two sides have also met twice at Children’s Mercy Park in the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup. The first took place on June 18, 2014, when Soony Saad and Alex Martinez each found the back of the net in a comfortable 2-0 victory, before Sporting KC hosted Minnesota once again in the Fourth Round on June 14, 2017. In that match, Opara, Gerso Fernandes, Dom Dwyer and Daniel Salloi found the back of the net as Sporting cruised to a 4-0 victory to set the side on their way to securing the club’s fourth all-time U.S. Open Cup title in September.

GOALS GALORE

Sporting Kansas City has had no issues scoring goals so far in the 2018 MLS season.

Peter Vermes’ side has found multiple goals in eight of the club’s 13 matches this season and has only been shutout three times. Sporting KC is the fifth highest scoring team in MLS so far in 2018 with 24 goals, only trailing the Houston Dynamo, Atlanta United FC, the New York Red Bulls and New York City FC.

MELIA’S NUMBERS BACK AMONG LEAGUE’S ELITE

Sunday’s 0-0 draw with Columbus Crew SC provided just another example of why Sporting Kansas City goalkeeper Tim Melia is considered one of the top glovemen in Major League Soccer. The 32-year-old produced three saves on the day, none more crucial than his stop on Gyasi Zardes’ penalty kick in the 43rd minute.

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 21 goals through 10 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.

Zardes, the league’s top goalscorer through 13 weeks of the MLS season with eight strikes, placed his shot to the right side of the goal but Melia guessed correctly and blocked the penalty away for a corner kick. It was the first penalty Melia has faced in 2018, having faced five throughout the 2017 campaign - saving three of them. That means that Melia has now saved four of the last six penalty kicks he’s faced, which leads the league alongside Columbus Crew goalie Zack Steffen since the start of 2017.

In addition, Melia’s 67 percent penalty save success rate since the start of last season leads all goalkeepers to have faced at least two penalties in that time.

In addition, Sporting KC has 11 different goalscorers so far this year - which is tied for the most number of different goalscorers across a single squad in the league this season, alongside the Houston Dynamo. So far this season, Sporting KC has found goals from Felipe Gutierrez (5), Johnny Russell (5), Daniel Salloi (3), Ilie Sanchez (2), Graham Zusi (2), Jimmy Medranda (2), Yohan Croizet (1), Diego Rubio (1), Cristian Lobato (1), Gerso Fernandes (1) and Khiry Shelton (1).

Sporting KC found it difficult to score on the road last season, only scoring 10 times in the club’s 17 away games in 2017 and only winning twice on the road. In just six road games this year, Sporting KC has already surpassed last year’s total in goals with 11 and has already recorded three road wins over the Chicago Fire (March 10), the LA Galaxy (April 8) and Atlanta United FC (May 9). Sporting also only scored multiple goals on the road two times in 2017 but has done so in four of the club’s six away games so far in 2018.

Melia now has the second best goals against average in MLS in 2018 with 1.00, having conceded 13 goals in 13 matches this season. Despite conceding nine goals in his first four games, a rate of 2.25 per game, Melia has since allowed just four goals in his ensuing nine games, a rate of 0.44 per game, and has recorded six shutouts in that time. Melia’s all-time goals against average of 1.11 ranks fourth in league history and best among active goalkeepers to have played a minimum of 1,000 minutes.

Sporting KC Game Notes | June 3, 2018 vs. Minnesota United FC | SportingKC.com/Game-Notes GUTIERREZ OUT WITH SPORTS HERNIA

SPORTING KANSAS CITY NEWS AND NOTES

INTERNATIONAL TOURNAMENTS COMING TO CMP

Sporting Kansas City announced on Tuesday, May 1 that midfielder Felipe Gutierrez underwent successful surgery on a sports hernia. From the time of the surgery, the Chilean is expected to miss the ensuing two to three months while rehabilitating from the injury and returning to full training.

On Wednesday, May 16, it was announced that Children’s Mercy Park will host international tournaments over the next two summers. In July of 2018, the U.S. Women’s National Team will return to Kansas City to face off against Japan in the Tournament of Nations, with Brazil also facing Australia as part of a doubleheader on July 26. Then, next summer, the CONCACAF Gold Cup comes back to KC for the first time since 2015 for a doubleheader in 2019. The teams and schedules for that tournament will be announced at a later date.

Gutierrez was named MLS Player of the Month for March after scoring five goals in five games, including game-winning strikes over the Chicago Fire and San Jose Earthquakes on March 10 and 17, respectively. On a grander scale, Gutierrez is the second player in club history to score five goals in the first five games of an MLS regular season, joining Miklos Molnar who accomplished the feat in 2000 to help Kansas City capture the MLS Cup and Supporters’ Shield.

The U.S. WNT has played in Kansas City seven times since its inaugural visit in 1999, winning four and drawing three. Children’s Mercy Park will play host to its fourth U.S WNT contest, having welcomed crowds for a 1-1 friendly draw against Canada in 2011, a 1-0 win over Trinidad and Tobago in the 2014 CONCACAF Women’s Championship, and a 4-0 friendly victory over Costa Rica in 2016. The U.S. Women’s and Men’s National Teams are 10-0-4 in 14 combined visits to Kansas City, including a 6-0-2 mark at world-class Children’s Mercy Park.

In addition, Gutierrez is the fourth player in club history to score in four consecutive regular season appearances. The other three are Sporting Legend Preki, former U.S. international Eddie Johnson and Dom Dwyer.

The world-class home of Sporting Kansas City is one of 15 venues across 13 U.S. cities that will welcome the 2019 edition of the expanded CONCACAF Gold Cup, which will feature a record 16 nations next summer from June 14-July 7. The biennial tournament is the premier international competition of the North, Central American and Caribbean region, helping determine Concacaf’s representative at the 2021 FIFA Confederations Cup.

Gutierrez, 27, joined Sporting KC in February after leaving Spanish side Real Betis.

He had spent the latter half of 2017 playing with Internacional in Brazil on loan from Betis, while he’s also played for Universidad Catolica in his native Chile before moving to FC Twente in the Netherlands where he was named the Most Valuable Player of the Eredivisie in 2013-14.

VERMES ERA CONTINUES

LOOKING TO EXTEND PLAYOFF STREAK

Now in the midst of his 10th season at the helm of Sporting Kansas City, manager Peter Vermes is looking to guide his side to yet another postseason appearance and remain firmly in the hunt for silverware in 2018.

Sporting KC is looking to continue it’s impressive streak of postseason appearances after becoming just the sixth club in MLS history to make at least seven straight trips to the MLS Cup Playoffs, while Manager Peter Vermes is now just the fourth coach to lead the same team to seven straight playoff appearances.

Vermes is now the longest tenured coach that is actively coaching a team in Major League Soccer, having been in charge of Sporting KC since 2009 - one year longer than Ben Olsen has been running the show at D.C. United. Vermes became the longest tenured coach in MLS when former LA Galaxy head coach Bruce Arena took the U.S. National Team coaching gig in November 2016, having been in charge of the Galaxy since 2008.

LONGEST MLS PLAYOFF STREAKS Club Seasons LA Galaxy 10 (1996-2005) Seattle Sounders FC 9 (2009-2017) *active LA Galaxy 8 (2009-2016) New York Red Bulls 8 (2010-2017) *active NE Revolution 8 (2002-2009) Real Salt Lake 7 (2008-2014) Sporting KC 7 (2011-2017) *active

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 the legendary Sigi Schmid, who is currently at the helm of the LA Galaxy.

On a local level, Vermes’ 10 years with Sporting KC 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 served as Chiefs head coach from 1963-1974.

Vermes has compiled a 151-108-88 record in all competitions with Sporting KC, including a remarkable 18-5-3 mark in U.S. Open Cup contests. Vermes’ 122 wins in MLS regular-season action ranks third among all coaches in MLS history, trailing the Galaxy’s Schmid and Los Angeles FC’s Bob Bradley, and one ahead of Orlando City SC head coach Jason Kreis.

VERMES VERBATIM

See below for Sporting KC Manager Peter Vermes’ comments following the 0-0 draw with Columbus Crew SC at Children’s Mercy Park on May 27, 2018:

BESLER & ZUSI ON CUSP OF HISTORY

Sporting Kansas City defenders Matt Besler and Graham Zusi are set to match several records as they play their 10th straight season with the club.

On Tim Melia’s penalty save: “I think it’s a PK. One hundred percent. Tim tries to come out and make a play on it and causes the penalty but then he pulls the team out. At that point, at that moment all of sudden you say, okay a little wake up call. Let’s go. Then they get the player thrown out.

We lacked urgency in the game. Credit to Columbus. Sometimes when you’re down a man, you get galvanized and you defend really well in a block. We’ve done it before here at home, against Dallas last year in the Open Cup. Sometimes it happens. You can do it. But at the same time, the lack of urgency on our part was a disappointment from my perspective.”

By playing in their 10th season with Sporting KC, Besler and Zusi match legendary midfielder Davy Arnaud for most seasons in club history. On a wider scale, only two other pro athletes have longer tenures in Kansas City: Kansas City Royals (MLB) outfielder Alex Gordon and Kansas City Chiefs (NFL) linebacker Tamba Hali.

Besler is set to reach some all-time milestones in 2018 as well. With another two appearances in MLS regular-season play, Besler will become Sporting KC’s all-time appearance leader, overtaking Arnaud who currently sits on 240 appearances in MLS action. In addition, Besler has already overtaken current assistant coach Kerry Zavagnin in games started with 233 and claimed the all-time lead in minutes played during the April 20, 2018 win over Vancouver Whitecaps FC.

On not capitalizing on the man advantage: “The one thing for me is that we have an obligation I think every time we step inside the white lines to play a certain way. But at times, what’s going to happen is that you’re going to be off. Maybe you miss a pass, maybe you miss a shot, maybe you mis-settle a ball. Sometimes you don’t have your A game that day. One thing that you always need to bring is your effort. We have an obligation to leave everything we have physically on the field and I don’t think that we did that today. It’s not something that I take very lightly here. I can’t tell you exactly what the reason is for it but I can tell you that the players will feel it over the next week. Because again, it’s disappointing to me. If we had the urgency and we were pushing the game and we were flying, heat’s no excuse to me. Every team has got to play in that environment. I have more than enough veterans guys on my team that have been through it before. I’ll tell you this, if it’s the heat – we’ll find out what heat really is.”

Zusi, who is second among all active MLS players in assists, shot up to a tie with Jaime Moreno for eighth most game-winning assists in MLS history when he recorded his 26th in the 6-0 win over Vancouver on April 20, 2018. Additionally, Zusi’s next game winning goal will break tie with Digital Takawira for seventh most in team history.

Sporting KC Game Notes | June 3, 2018 vs. Minnesota United 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 entering his 10th season as Sporting Kansas City Manager in 2017 and is the longest-tenured active head coach in MLS. He is the team’s longest-serving manager and his 151 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 seven 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 122 regular-season wins top the club’s all-time chart and rank sixth 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 has coached 347 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.

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.

He announced his retirement at the conclusion of the 2011 season. Dufty then took to coaching, first working with Florida Gulf Coast University and then the University of Illinois at Chicago. In 2015, Dufty served as goalkeeper coach for Toronto FC II in their inaugural USL season.

MNUFC MATCH NOTES

Minnesota United FC vs Sporting Kansas City | Children’s Mercy Park, Kansas City, KS | Sunday, June 3

LAST TIME OUT | Minnesota United FC vs Montreal Impact Ramirez, Ibarra power MNUFC to 2-0 win vs. Montreal Minnesota United returned to the win column for the second time this month with a confident 2-0 result over the Montreal Impact last Saturday. The posts did most of the work in the first half, as each team hit the uprights but was unable to break the deadlock before the break. The pestering MNUFC attackers looked to capitalize on the Impact’s mistakes to get on the board in the second half.

Ibson intercepted a pass in the 52nd minute and slid the ball to Christian Ramirez, whose deflected shot bounced in for his third goal of the year. Minutes later, Miguel Ibarra scored his second of the season by pouncing on a deflected pass and putting the ball in the top corner to secure the Loons’ fifth win of the campaign.

Loons face Sporting KC for second time this month After a week apart, Minnesota United and Sporting Kansas City will reunite for a Sunday matchup. Their first meeting of the year ended in a 1-1 deadlock at TCF Bank Stadium, with Khiry Shelton and Darwin Quintero scoring first-half goals for their respective teams. MNUFC is fresh off its important 2-0 result over Montreal Impact, while Sporting KC continued its four-match unbeaten run with a scoreless draw against Columbus Crew SC last weekend. Sporting has suffered just one loss at home this season, falling to New York City FC in the opening week, transforming Children’s Mercy Park into a fortress. MNUFC will need a similar performance to last week if it hopes to get its first away victory over Sporting.

MNUFC MATCH NOTES

Minnesota United FC vs Sporting Kansas City | Children’s Mercy Park, Kansas City, KS | Sunday, June 3

MINNESOTA UNITEDUNITED NEWS AND NOTES 2015 MINNESOTA FC GOAL MAP Miguel Ibarra earns a spot on MLS Team of the Week for Week 13 MNUFC midfielder Miguel Ibarra was named to the MLS Team of the Week for Week 13 after scoring his second goal of the campaign in a 2-0 victory over Montreal Impact last weekend. Ibarra received the ball at the top of the box and hit a fading left-footed ball into the top corner for an insurance goal against Montreal.

He has played a pivotal role for the Loons all season, leading the team in assists (three), and is just one goal behind Darwin Quintero and Christian Ramirez for the team lead (two to their three).

Adrian Heath on Tyrone Mears’ return to the lineup against Montreal “He did well [against Ignacio Piatti]. [Piatti] had the one chance and he hit the crossbar with it, but I thought Tye managed him really, really well.

You know, made really good decisions of when to go and join in forward or air on the side of caution and just think, ‘No, I don’t think we’ve got proper control of the ball so I’ll keep hold of my position.’ I think he did excellent.

I thought the back four were very, very good. They kept us in it for the first 25 minutes when we weren’t playing particularly well and that gave us a bit of a platform to build on.”

Heath on the familiar challenge of facing Sporting KC, what’s changed “We’ve just played better. I think that’s the most important thing.

Obviously, they’ve had a couple of draws since [the last time the teams met] as well. We know it’s not going to be easy. It’s never easy going to Kansas. I actually think it’s one of the hardest parts in MLS to go and try to get a result. They play their 4-3-3, they’re really good at it, they put you on the back foot. All those things I’ve just spoke about, about getting you out of your comfort zone, they never give you a second, and we’re going to have to be ready from the very first minute.

“You know, I was incredibly disappointed with our performance there last year. Probably the most I’ve been since I’ve been the coach here in Minnesota. So, we need a really improved performance because if not the result will be exactly the same.”

Francisco Calvo departs to join Costa Rica ahead of 2018 World Cup MNUFC captain and defender Francisco Calvo began Costa Rica national team camp on Monday, May 28. Los Ticos’ first preparation match for Russia 2018, a farewell to the home crowd against Northern Ireland, is scheduled for Sunday, June 3 at 1:00 p.m. CT at San José’s Estadio Nacional.

Christian Ramirez on adjustments to the team in Calvo’s absence “It’s just the next guy up. It’s a different style of center back that’s coming on, whether it’s Brent [Kallman], whether it’s Wyatt [Omsberg]. [Michael Boxall] takes the captain’s armband. It’s just the nature of the game. We can’t use that as an excuse. [Francisco Calvo] wouldn’t want us to use that as an excuse. So, it’s something that we just have to look forward to that challenge — for those guys to step up and take that opportunity. So many times we ask for an opportunity and then these are presented and yeah, you have to take it.”

Ramirez on playing Sporting Kansas City at Children’s Mercy Park “It’s a tough place to play. [Their fans] do a good job of making it a tough environment, because they’re right on you. So, it’s always a good place to play. It’s a tough place to play and hopefully we can get a result down there, which would be nice.”

Eight Loons listed on 2018 MLS All-Star Game ballot Fan voting for the 2018 MLS All-Star Game Fan XI presented by Target is available through the MLS app and the EA Sports “More Than a Vote” Challenge. Eight members of MNUFC were voted by media members for consideration to play in the All-Star Game: Bobby Shuttleworth (goalkeeper), Francisco Calvo (defender), Jerome Thiesson (defender), Miguel Ibarra (midfielder), Ibson (midfielder), Rasmus Schuller (midfielder), Darwin Quintero (midfielder), Christian Ramirez (forward).

MNUFC draws FC Cincinnati in U.S. Open Cup MNUFC learned that it will travel to FC Cincinnati for its opening match of the 2018 U.S. Open Cup. This will be the first meeting between Minnesota and Cincinnati and will take place at 6:30 p.m. CT on Wednesday, June 6 at Nippert Stadium.

Calvo earns a spot on Costa Rica’s 23-man roster for World Cup Costa Rica national team coach Óscar Ramírez announced his list of 23 players who will represent Los Ticos at the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia, among them Minnesota United defender and captain Francisco Calvo. Midfielder Johan Venegas, who is currently on loan with Deportivo Saprissa, also earned a spot. Calvo joined his Tico teammates on Monday, May 28.

“I’m very happy and very grateful to God, first of all,” said Calvo. “I think this is what you work for, right? To be in that list. It’s been a long four years in the buildup to this great opportunity to participate in the World Cup and now I have to keep working hard.”

Calvo, 25, debuted with Costa Rica’s senior side in May 2011 and has since gone on to feature on 35 occasions. In 2017, he scored the equalizer in a 1-1 Copa Centroamericana draw against Honduras, a first-minute goal in a 2-1 World Cup qualifying victory versus Trinidad and Tobago and the lone goal in a 1-1 Gold Cup group stage draw with Canada. Additionally, Calvo started and played key roles in the defense during five of eight World Cup qualifiers on the year, including Los Ticos’ 2-0 win over the United States at Red Bull Arena on September 1 and the 1-1 draw against Mexico four days later.

“It’s a big moment for Francisco and also a big moment for Minnesota,” said MNUFC Sporting Director Manny Lagos. “This is the biggest stage in soccer and all eyes will be on the captain of Minnesota United. We know he will represent himself, the club and his country well.”

Costa Rica will play three preparatory matches to start the month of June, the first against Northern Ireland at Estadio Nacional in San José, Costa Rica on Sunday, June 3 at 1:00 p.m. CT. The team will then travel to Leeds, England to face the home team at Elland Road on Thursday, June 7 at 2:00 p.m. CT, with the final match against Belgium scheduled for Monday, June 11 at 1:45 p.m. CT at Stade Roi Baudouin in Brussels, Belgium.

Los Ticos will play in Group E during the group phase of Russia 2018 alongside Brazil, Serbia and Switzerland. They will debut against Serbia on Sunday, June 17 at 7:00 a.m. CT in Samara Arena, before traveling to Saint Petersburg for a meeting with Brazil on Friday, June 22 at 7:00 a.m.

CT. Costa Rica’s group-stage matches conclude with a match against Switzerland at Nizhny Novgorod on Wednesday, June 27 at 1:00 p.m. CT

ABOUT MAJOR LEAGUE SOCCER Minnesota United FC plays in North America’s top professional soccer league, Major League Soccer (MLS). The league features 23 teams from across the United States and Canada.

After a successful bid to host the FIFA World Cup in 1994, the United States Soccer Federation (USSF) founded MLS to bring a top-level soccer league back to the country for the first time since 1984, when the original NASL folded. The league was set to begin play in 1996 with 10 teams: Colorado Rapids, Columbus Crew (SC), D.C. United, Dallas Burn (FC Dallas), Kansas City Wiz (Sporting Kansas City), Los Angeles Galaxy, New England Revolution, NY/NJ MetroStars (New York Red Bulls), San Jose Clash (Earthquakes) and Tampa Bay Mutiny.

The league’s first match was played on April 6, 1996 as the San Jose Clash played D.C. United in front of 31,000 fans at Spartan Stadium. The league drew large crowds in its opening season, pulling star power from around North America and building on the excitement of the 1994 FIFA World Cup. As MLS has continued to grow, clubs have begun moving out of shared American football venues and into soccer-specific stadium, led by Columbus Crew (SC), who moved into the soccer-specific MAPFRE Stadium in 1999. Currently, 16 teams play in soccer-specific venues.

The league is split into the Eastern and Western Conferences. Each team plays 34 matches during the season. Teams play all conference opponents twice, once at home and once on the road, and each team in the other conference once, with an even balance of home and away matches. The remainder of the schedule is filled with matches against conference opponents. The top six teams in each conference at the end of the year qualify for the MLS Cup Playoffs.

The postseason begins with the third through sixth seeds in each conference playing in a knockout round. The winners advance to the conference semifinals to play the first and second seeds in the conference. In this round, the format switches to a two-match aggregate series, with the team scoring the most goals over the series moving on. The same format is used for the conference finals. The winner of the conference final moves on to face the other conference champion in the MLS Cup Final. The final is a single match, hosted by the team with the best record in the regular season, with the winner being declared MLS Cup Champion.

In the time since, he has added experience and positional depth with his flexibility along the backline, where he can play as either a right-sided center back or right back. Boxall has been a stalwart in the back this season, starting 12 matches and missing just once due to international duty. He will wear the captain’s armband for the first time this weekend.

#8 MARC BURCH | DEFENDER

He brought sorely needed experience to the MNUFC defense upon his transfer from Colorado, swiftly slotting into Adrian Heath’s preferred starting XI for 10 matches before a bi-lateral sports hernia surgery forced him to the sidelines. Burch started 14 of 15 matches during the 2017 season and featured on four occasions (starting three times) to start 2018, but is currently out due to an injury to his left meniscus.

The MNUFC captain earned a spot in the MLS Team of the Week for Week 10 of the 2018 season for his contributions to the Loons’ clean sheet victory over Vancouver.

MNUFC MATCH NOTES

Minnesota United FC vs Sporting Kansas City | Children’s Mercy Park, Kansas City, KS | Sunday, June 3

MINNESOTA UNITED FC COACHING STAFF BIOGRAPHIES ADRIAN HEATH | HEAD COACH Heath was appointed Head Coach of MNUFC in November 2016. After a playing career of over 18 years in Europe, he spent 11 years coaching in England for clubs like Burnley, Sheffield United and Coventry City before coming to the United States in 2008 to join USL expansion side Austin Aztex as Head Coach. The club spent two years in Austin before relocating to Orlando in 2010, to become Orlando City SC. In just four years under Heath, Orlando won two USL Pro championships and three Commissioner’s Cups. The club joined MLS in 2015 and Heath’s influence helped build the team for a very successful inaugural season, narrowly missing out on the playoffs.

IAN FULLER | ASSISTANT COACH Fuller joined MNUFC in 2016, following a successful stint with Orlando City SC. He was a player-coach with Orlando, helping the team to multiple titles in USL during his five years with the Lions. Fuller is a Portland native and first met Heath when he joined Austin Aztex in 2010. He was promoted to player-assistant coach for the club’s USL journey and was tapped to join the coaching staff full time as an assistant coach when Orlando joined MLS.

MARK WATSON | ASSISTANT COACH Watson, a former Canada national team defender and assistant coach, brings a wealth of MLS experience to MNUFC, having played for Seattle Sounders FC, Vancouver Whitecaps FC and D.C. United. Additionally, Watson managed San Jose Earthquakes before joining Orlando City SC as an assistant under Heath in 2014. During his tenure with the Quakes, Watson helped guide the team to a playoff berth in 2010 and its second Supporters’ Shield in 2012. Watson was named interim head coach in June 2013 and closed the season with the best record in MLS at 11-5-3. In addition to his MLS experience, Watson previously served as assistant coach with the Canada men’s national U20 and senior teams, as well as several years as an assistant with the USL PRO Charleston Battery.

JOHN PASCARELLA | GOALKEEPING COACH Pascarella arrives in Minnesota from Des Moines Menace of the Premier Development League (PDL), where he served as manager since January 2017. Prior to his time in the PDL, Pascarella spent eight seasons with Sporting Kansas City. Starting as a goalkeeper and fitness coach from 2009–2011, he then transitioned to become an assistant coach during an incredibly successful time in the franchise’s history; he helped guide Sporting KC to a club-record six-straight playoff appearances, including the 2013 MLS Cup championship and the 2012 and 2015 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup titles.
