Sporting KC Game Notes | August 19, 2017 vs. FC Dallas | SportingKC.com/Game-Notes #SKCvFCD: HEAD-TO-HEAD

#SKCvFCD: BY THE NUMBERS

Sporting Kansas City is set to face FC Dallas for the fourth time this season in all competitions, having posted a 1-1-1 record in the first three games to date in 2017. The match will also be the third at Children’s Mercy Park, where Sporting KC have posted an unbeaten 1-0-1 record this year.

Sporting KC first played to a 0-0 draw at Children’s Mercy Park in the side’s home opener on March 11 before falling to a 1-0 defeat at Toyota Stadium in Frisco, Texas on April 22 when Maynor Figueroa scored late to give his side all three points in the most recent regular-season meeting between the two sides.

The latest and most dramatic match of the season came on July 11, when Sporting KC emerged 3-0 victors in the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup Quarterfinals at Children’s Mercy Park. Left back Seth sinovic was sent off barely 15 minutes into the match but Sporting KC hung on to take the game to extra time, where FC Dallas saw Maxi Urruti and Mauro Rosales sent off as Sporting KC found the back of the net three times through Latif Blessing’s brace and Daniel Salloi’s finish.

Sporting KC leads the all-time regular-season series 23-22-12 and the two sides have split the series since the start of the 2013 season 3-3-4.

SPORTING KANSAS CITY NEWS AND NOTES

MUSA DEBUTS, EARNS INTERNATIONAL RECOGNITION

While Sporting Kansas City’s historic 13-game unbeaten streak in all competitions came to an end with the 1-0 defeat to Seattle Sounders FC at CenturyLink Field last Saturday, the club’s franchise-record 21-game home unbeaten streak is still intact following last Wednesday’s shootout victory over the San Jose Earthquakes to advance to the U.S. Open Cup Final.

Sporting Kansas City signed midfielder James Musa from the side’s USL affiliate, the Swope Park Rangers, on Friday, Aug. 11 and he made his debut for the club the following day. Musa was in the starting lineup against Seattle Sounders FC last Saturday, and went the full 90 minutes to spell midfielder Ilie for the first time this season.

Sporting KC’s 21-game home unbeaten streak in MLS action stretches all the way back to last summer. Sporting KC last tasted defeat in the regular season at Children’s Mercy Park when the side fell to a 1-0 loss against D.C. United on May 27, 2016. Since then, Sporting KC has gone 14-0-7 in regular-season play at Children’s Mercy Park, and is 17-1-8 in all competitions in that time. The lone setback in the last 14 months came in a 2-1 defeat to Vancouver Whitecaps FC in the CONCACAF Champions League group stage on Sept. 13, 2016.

Musa impressed on his debut and finished the match leading all players in touches (84), passes (78) and successful passes (68) while also winning two duels and making two interceptions. He came closest to equalizing for his side too, when his powerful low strike was well saved by Stefan Frei in the 74th minute.

The club’s 21-game home unbeaten streak is the longest in club history and is the sixth longest in MLS history. The Houston Dynamo holds the current record for the longest home unbeaten streak, having gone 30 home games without a loss from July 9, 2011 through April 28, 2013 - a streak that was shattered by Sporting KC with a 1-0 win on May 12, 2013.

The good news kept coming for Musa as he was then called in to the New Zealand National Team on Monday, having been out of the National Team picture since 2014. He earned one senior cap for New Zealand in a friendly against South Africa on May 30, 2014. Musa represented the New Zealand U-20s with three starts at the 2011 FIFA U-20 World Cup in Colombia, then competed with the U-23s at the 2012 Summer Olympics.

Sporting KC has now gone 3-1-6 in MLS play since the start of June and 3-0-1 in the U.S. Open Cup - with the sole draw resulting in last Wednesday’s penalty shootout victory. The side’s record since the start of June now stands at 6-1-7 and the club’s recently snapped nine-game unbeaten streak in MLS play was the longest active undefeated streak in MLS at the time and has only been bettered all year by the Chicago Fire, who went 11 games unbeaten from May 6 through July 5, going 8-0-3.

Musa will join the All Whites in Auckland, New Zealand on Aug. 27 for training ahead of the Oceania Football Confederation (OFC) Final Playoff against the Solomon Islands.

The first leg is slated for Sept. 1 at QBE Stadium in Auckland, with the return leg set for Sept. 5 at Lawson Tama Stadium in Honiara, Solomon Islands.

Musa was the seventh player to make his Sporting KC debut this season, joining Latif Blessing, Gerso, Cristian Lobato, Tyler Pasher, Daniel Salloi and Ilie.

U.S. OPEN CUP FINAL SET

Sporting Kansas City will face off against the New York Red Bulls in the 2017 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup Final on Wednesday, Sept. 20 at 8 p.m. CT on ESPN2 and ESPN Deportes. Sporting KC advanced to the Final on Aug. 9 after a thrilling penalty shootout victory over the San Jose Earthquakes, while the Red Bulls overcame a two-goal deficit to top USL side FC Cincinnati 3-2 after extra time on Tuesday night.

CENTURY OF SELLOUTS

Sporting Kansas City is set to reach a major milestone on Saturday, with the club expected to host its 100th consecutive sellout when Sporting KC takes on FC Dallas at Children’s Mercy Park. The streak dates back to April 7, 2012 - a 1-0 victory over the LA Galaxy - and includes all MLS regular-season and postseason matches. The match also marks the 150th set to be played at the stadium, including MLS regular-season (114), postseason (6), U.S. Open Cup (17), CONCACAF Champions League (7) and friendly (5) games.

Sporting KC’s appearance in the Final will be its third in the last six years, having hoisted the trophy at Children’s Mercy Park in 2012 and the Philadelphia Union’s Talen Energy Stadium in 2015. It also represents the fourth Final Sporting KC has participated in this decade, having also won the 2013 MLS Cup on penalties against Real Salt Lake.

Sporting KC’s record in the 99 games prior stands at 53-19-27 - a 67.2 winning percentage. The club’s regular-season mark at home in that time is 50-19-16, while the side has gone 3-0-1 in the postseason. That includes MLS Cup Playoff victories over the Houston Dynamo in 2012 and 2013, as well as an Eastern Conference Semifinal Second Leg victory over the New England Revolution. The one postseason draw came in the 2013 MLS Cup, when Sporting KC topped Real Salt Lake on penalty kicks after the game finished 1-1.

U.S. Soccer held an official draw ahead of the Semifinal stage to determine hosting priorities for both Semifinal matchups as well as the tournament Final - with Sporting KC winning the right to host both its Semifinal and a potential Final.

Sporting Kansas City is seeking the club’s fourth U.S. Open Cup championship, having previously hoisted the title in 2004, 2012 and 2015. The Red Bulls have never won the U.S. Open Cup and are making their first appearance in the Final since 2003. The 2017 U.S. Open Cup winner will receive $250,000 in prize money and a berth in the 2019 Scotiabank CONCACAF Champions League, the premier club competition in North America.

Since the sellout streak began, Sporting KC has hoisted three trophies - the 2012 and 2015 U.S. Open Cups, and the 2013 MLS Cup. Two of those tournament’s were won in the confines of Children’s Mercy Park, as Sporting KC won penalty shootouts in the 2012 U.S. Open Cup Final over Seattle Sounders FC and 2013 MLS Cup against Real Salt Lake.

BUSIO ON FIRE FOR U.S. U-15s

Sporting Kansas City Academy midfielder Gianluca Busio is currently with the U.S. Under-15 National Team in Bradenton, Florida for the 2017 CONCACAF Under-15 Championship. The U.S. has advanced to the tournament’s Final, with Busio playing a key role in the success of the team.

The club’s average home attendance in MLS play stands at 19,428 - which is over 105 percent of the official stadium capacity, with standing room tickets pushing the attendance beyond seated capacity. Of the 149 games played at Children’s Mercy Park to date, Sporting KC has won 81 and scored 250 goals. Sporting KC has sold out 111 of the 120 MLS games since the stadium opened in June 2011.

The 15-year-old has scored a team-leading five goals for the U.S. U-15s, while starting three of the four games to date in the tournament. The U.S. opened with a 2-0 victory over Canada on Aug. 13, with Busio scoring both goals in the 34th and 35th minutes of the match.

HISTORIC UNBEATEN STREAK SNAPPED

Sporting Kansas City saw its 13-game unbeaten streak in all competitions come to an end last Saturday at CenturyLink Field when the side fell 1-0 to Seattle Sounders FC with Clint Dempsey scoring the only goal of the game late in the first half. The loss was Sporting KC’s first since a 1-0 defeat to the Colorado Rapids on May 27.

Busio then came off the bench in a 6-0 drubbing of Trinidad & Tobago on Aug. 14, bagging another brace with second-half goals in the 39th and 70th minutes - the U.S. U-15s’ fourth and sixth goals of the match. Busio was back in the lineup as the U.S. saw off Costa Rica 4-1 to seal top spot in Group B and a berth in the tournament’s Semifinals.

The 13-game unbeaten stretch matched the longest such streak in club history, having also gone 13 games without defeat in all competitions from Aug. 4, 2012 through Oct. 24, 2012. Nine of the 13 games came in MLS regular-season play, where Sporting KC had held on to the longest active unbeaten streak and the second longest unbeaten streak this season until last Saturday.

The U.S. faced Panama in Thursday’s Semifinal, cruising to a 3-0 victory. Busio scored his fifth goal of the tournament in the 36th minute with a stunning bicycle kick off a cross from the right wing that sealed the three-goal victory. The U.S. will now take on Mexico in the Final of the 2017 CONCACAF U-15 Championship on Sunday.

Sporting KC’s road record dropped to 2-5-5 on the season, which comes to a 37.5 winning percentage and lands Sporting KC in a tie for the eighth best road record in MLS this season. Toronto FC currently leads the pack with a 4-3-5 record (54.2 winning percentage).

Sporting KC Game Notes | August 19, 2017 vs. FC Dallas | SportingKC.com/Game-Notes SPORTING KANSAS CITY NEWS AND NOTES

BESLER AND SINOVIC RENEW PARTNERSHIP

VERMES VERBATIM

After helping Sporting KC record nine shutouts in the opening 20 games on the left side of the defense to open the 2017 MLS season, center back Matt Besler and left back Seth Sinovic have now posted 47 total shutouts in just 125 games where both have started in the regular season. Besler and Sinovic have started 20 of the club’s 24 regular-season games together this season, posting all nine shutouts.

Below are Manager Peter Vermes’ remarks on Sporting KC’s 1-0 defeat to Seattle Sounders FC at CenturyLink Field on August 12, 2017.

On the match...

“I think we put the effort in. The game came down to one chance. They scored and we weren’t very dangerous in the attacking third. We lacked a little bit of a final push. We’re just mentally and physically tired. When you bring in so many changes like we did, it’s a little bit disjointed in the team, but more importantly, those guys aren’t all 90 minutes fit.

That had a little to do with it as well. We have a couple of days off and we’ll build up to our next games. [The days off] are well deserved and needed.”

Since Sinovic made his first appearance for the team on May 28, 2011 after being waived by the New England Revolution earlier in the year, Sporting KC leads all of MLS with 77 shutouts - 11 more than Seattle Sounders FC in second. Besler and Sinovic have started 125 of the 220 games since the trade, posting 47 of the club’s 77 shutouts alongside one another.

On what James Musa brought to the game after his recent signing...

“He actually played pretty well. I thought he was calm and cool in the game and the moment never got to him. I thought his positioning was good. He was good on the ball, he was confident...actually think he had a really good game.”

Individually, Besler leads the league in shutouts since Sinovic joined the club with 63, while Sinovic is tied for second with 56. Prior to the 1-1 draw with Montreal on Saturday, June 10 where Belser was with the U.S. National Team in Mexico, Besler and Sinovic had started each of Sporting KC’s previous 17 regular-season games, conceding just 10 goals - a rate of 0.59 per game.

On how the team handled the Open Cup and road trip...

“I don’t think we got worked over by any means today. I thought we were good on the ball. Like I said, the only thing we weren’t really good on was we weren’t dangerous in the final third. We didn’t really put a ton of pressure on them in and around the goal.

Outside of that, I thought our game was good. They had one chance and scored…three points. That’s the way it goes sometimes. I thought we handled it pretty well, especially with the number of changes we made. Seven changes is a lot for a team to have to deal with.”

KANSAS CITY LOOKS TO HOST FIFA WORLD CUP MATCHES

On Tuesday, the United Bid Committee of the United States, Mexico and Canada officially started its outreach for cities to declare their interest to serve as Official Host Cities for the 2026 FIFA World Cup by sending Requests for Information to 44 cities across the three nations. A total of 49 stadiums located in or around those 44 cities will be considered for inclusion in the official bid that will be sent to FIFA by March 16, 2018.

Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City was one of those stadiums.

On if any adjustments need to be made defensively...

“When you have guys who are away for international duty for as long as they are, you’re going to be a little bit inconsistent in some areas on the field. Our results have been good. No doubt, with regular training, I’m not really concerned about that at all.”

After cities declare their interest, the United Bid Committee will review the submissions and intends to issue a shortlist of cities by late September. The Bid Committee will then provide more detailed bid documentation to the cities and conduct meetings to discuss any questions as candidate cities prepare their final bid, due early January 2018.

The Bid Committee plans to include 20-25 venues in its final bid to FIFA. If selected to host the 2026 FIFA World Cup, subject to FIFA’s determination, it is anticipated that at least 12 locations could ultimately serve as Official Host Cities. If a city is not selected to host matches, there may be other opportunities to be involved in the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Those cities, as well as other cities not on the initial list, could be selected as the location for the International Broadcast Center, host Team Base Camps or host major events such as the Preliminary or Final Draw.

PLAYOFF STREAK

Sporting KC is looking to become the sixth club in MLS history to make at least seven straight trips to the postseason, while Manager Peter Vermes would be just the fourth coach to lead the same team to seven straight playoff appearances.

Sporting KC Game Notes | August 19, 2017 vs. FC Dallas | SportingKC.com/Game-Notes Manager | Peter Vermes

Assistant Coach | Kerry Zavagnin Assistant Coach Kerry Zavagnin first joined Kansas City in 2000 as a holding midfielder and was an integral part of the club’s midfield for the next nine seasons, during which time he helped lead the Wizards to MLS Cup (2000) and U.S. Open Cup (2004) Championships. He was named to the MLS All-Star team and the Best XI in 2004. Zavagnin’s primary duties as an assistant include scouting, developing Sporting Kansas City’s younger players, breaking down film and assisting with training sessions, among others.

Peter Vermes is in his ninth season as Sporting Kansas City Manager in 2017. He is the team’s longest-serving manager and his 140 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 – 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 six 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 112 regular-season wins top the club’s all-time chart and rank tied for seventh 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 322 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. 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.

Goalkeeper Coach | Alec Dufty Goalkeeper coach Alec Dufty enters his first season with Sporting Kansas City having been introduced to the organization as Sporting KC’s USL affiliate - the Swope Park Rangers - goalkeeper coach in the side’s inaugural season in 2016.

A former MLS player, Dufty began his playing career with the New York Red Bulls in 2009, going on to make one appearance before joining the MLS reserve goalkeeper pool. 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. He announced his retirement at the conclusion of the 2011 season.

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.

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.

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, while concurrently holding the position of Sports Performance Director with Velocity Sports Performance in Alexandria, Virginia.

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.

ALL-TIME SERIES FC Dallas is 22-23-12 (89 GF and 84 GA) all-time against Kansas City. Sporting has a 14-8-7 record against FC Dallas in matches played in Kansas City.

LAST TIME AROUND FC Dallas bested Sporting, 1-0, on April 22, thanks to a goal scored by Maynor Figueroa in the 77th minute. Figueroa was assisted on the play by Michael Barrios and Hernan Grana. Javier Morales played a season-high 85 minutes in central midfield for FCD during the match. Jesse Gonzalez made one save to record the shutout while his counterpart, Tim Melia was forced to make five saves. Melia also out-saved Gonzalez in the teams’ first match of the season, a 0-0 draw in Kansas City on March 11.

LAST WEEK Sporting lost for the first time in 10 matches, dating back to May 27. Seattle’s Clint Dempsey scored on a header in the 36th minute to sink Kansas City.

Dallas ended a two-game losing streak, drawing Colorado, 0-0, at Toyota Stadium.

SHUTOUT STREAK VS. SPORTING In MLS play, FC Dallas has not allowed a goal to Sporting since the 73rd minute of a 2-2 draw at Toyota Stadium on Aug. 13, 2016 – a span of 197 minutes. In Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup play, Sporting scored three goals in overtime on July 11, to defeat FCD, 3-0, and advance to the semifinals.

GOALKEEPER BATTLE Sporting’s Tim Melia (0.79) and FCD’s Jesse Gonzalez (1.06) rank No. 1 and No. 2 in MLS in Goals Against Average. Melia has a save percentage of 78.3.

Gonzalez’s is 67.7.

CHANGES AT THE BREAK In the 15 minutes following halftime, Sporting has outscored opponents 12-0.

The 46th to 60th minutes account for 41.3% of all the goals scored by Kansas City. SKC is the only team in the league to have not allowed a single goal in any 15-minute segment of matches this season. In that same time frame, Dallas has outscored opponents 7-4. Dallas’ best 15-minute segment is just before halftime, when it has outscored opponents 6-1.

CLOSING TIME Dallas leads the league in goals against in the final 15 minutes of matches this season, having allowed just three. The league average in that frame is 9.68.

ROAD WARRIORS FC Dallas (3-3-4) is tied for second in away record with a winning percentage of .500. Only Toronto FC’s (4-3-5) .542 is better.

TOUGH STRETCH FC Dallas (9-5-8) will play two of the three teams ahead of it in the Western Conference Standings in a span of five days. After facing SKC (9-5-10) on August 19, Dallas returns home to host Houston (10-7-7) on August 23.

EASTERN CONFERENCE SWING Beginning with an August 26 match in Columbus, FC Dallas will face three straight Eastern Conference opponents. The NY Red Bulls visit Toyota Stadium on September 2 and Dallas travels to Atlanta on September 9.

VS. THE EAST FC Dallas head coach Oscar Pareja has a 23-9-6 record vs. Eastern Conference teams in MLS play since 2014. FC Dallas has a 4-2-1 record against the East this season. SKC (2-0-6) is the only Western Conference team with winning records against the East this season.

SCORER TO CREATOR Barrios has seven more assists (10 total) in 22 appearances than he did in either the 2015 or 2016 seasons. Adversely, Barrios has only scored twice this season. He found the back of the net 16 times in his first two seasons. He is tied for second place in the league in assists (10) with four other players.

BARRIOS: HOME AND AWAY Nine of Barrios’ 18 goals have come on the road – nine have been scored at Toyota Stadium. On the flip side, 13 of Barrios’ 14 assists occurred at Toyota Stadium.

COLMAN IS ON THE BOARD Cristian Colman’s brace against Montreal on July 22 led FC Dallas to its first ever victory at Stade Saputo. After scoring 18 goals in 65 appearances with Asuncion in Paraguay, Colman had gone 14 games without a goal this season.

12 GAMES REMAINING 22 games into the 2016 season, FC Dallas’ record was 12-6-4 (40 points) – currently at 9-5-8 (35 points), FCD is five points back of its Supporters’ Shield pace from a season ago. Dallas went 5-2-5 in its final 12 matches last season – losing only to RSL (8/20) and Colorado (9/10).

DEPTH Venezuelan midfielder Carlos Cermeño got his third start of the season on August 5 vs. Philadelphia. He played almost the entire match getting subbed off in the 82nd minute (for Wake Forest rookie Jacori Hayes). It’s the most Cermeño has played in a game since playing the full 90 minutes March 11, against Sporting Kansas City.

OFFENSIVE REINFORCEMENT Another Venezuelan and the ninth South American on the FCD roster, Dallas signed midfielder Luis Gonzalez, on loan from Monagas, on August 8. The 26year-old has over 185 appearances in the Venezuelan first division and scored 17 goals in 45 appearances since 2016. He has earned three caps with the Venezuelan National Team since 2016.

VIDEO REVIEW Video review was used for the very first time in league history to deny FC Dallas of a goal by Maxi Urruti on August 5. The goal was called back because the referee deemed Cristian Colman fouled Philadelphia goalkeeper John McCarthy, impeding him from making a save on Urruti’s shot. A second Dallas goal was disallowed vs. Colorado on August 12.

SHOT EFFICIENCY FC Dallas striker Maxi Urruti ranks fourth in shots on goal this season (32). Of the top 10 players in SOG this season, Urruti ranks sixth in shots to SOG ratio (438). Chicago’s David Accam leads the league with a ratio of .600.

POINTS IN A GAME FC Dallas set a record for points (goal = 2, assist = 1) in a single game on June 3 with 21. The previous record was 18, which was recorded twice: 6/5/99 @ NYRB and 9/12/09 @ LA.

DEFENSIVE BLOCK Sporting (235) and FC Dallas (242) rank first and second in fewest shots against. Sporting is allowing just 9.79 while Dallas is allowing 11 per game.

FRANCHISE RECORD Roland Lamah scored the fastest hat-trick in FCD history on June 3. He netted three goals in the opening 31 minutes. It was the second-fastest hat-trick to start a match in MLS history, behind Bradley Wright-Phillips, who did it in 27 minutes on May 28, 2016 – one year and six days apart.

WHEN URRUTI SCORES OR ASSISTS… FC Dallas is 20-0-6 all-time, across all competitions. In the past two MLS seasons FC Dallas is 16-0-6 with Urruti scoring or assisting. Dallas is 4-0-0 in CCL and USOC matches.

NOT OUT OF THE WOODS YET The low point of Dallas’ Supporters Shield run of 2016 came in a three-game road trip through VAN (0-3 L, April 23), NYRB (0-4 L, April 29) and TOR (0-1 L, May 7). This season, Dallas escaped a three-game road swing with two points: 0-2 L to POR on June 10, 1-1 D with VAN on June 17 and a 1-1 D with HOU on June 23. Unfortunately, due to CONCACAF Champions League play, FCD moved its April 4 match in COL to Oct. 7. The switch created a second three-game road trip (ORL, COL, SEA) from Sept. 30 to Oct. 15.

HEAVY LEGS FC Dallas has used its conditioning to wear teams down and excel this season. The team has outscored opponents, 6-1, in the final 15 of the first half and 8-3 in the final 15 minutes of the second half – giving FCD a 14-4 edge when both teams’ legs are heavy.

STEPPING UP Urruti has improved his goal-per-game average from 0.25 (2013-2017) to 0.55 in 2017.

SELLOUTS FC Dallas sold out its fourth match of the season (club record) on July 4 with a crowd of 16,291. Toyota Stadium currently seats 16,000 due to the construction of the U.S. Soccer Hall of Fame. FCD also sold out its matches on March 18 (16,150), April 4 (16,048) and April 29 (16,014).

ATTACKING MINDED Since Oscar Pareja became the head coach of FC Dallas in 2014, FCD is 54‐2‐6 when scoring at least two goals. The two losses were at LA (3-2L) on 9/26/15 and at SEA (3-2L) 4/12/14.

SCORING ON PACE FC Dallas is on pace to score 51 goals this season (1.50 per game). Since 2014 (the Pareja era), FC Dallas has averaged 52.3 goals per season (1.539) during the regular season. The club record for goals in a season is 55 (‘14 and ‘97).

GET TO THE HALF Since 2015, FCD has a record of 39‐7‐17 if leading or tied at half.

FCD FOR USA Matt Hedges and Kellyn Acosta saw time in the U.S.’s 2-0 win against El Salvador in the Quarterfinals of the 2017 Gold Cup on July 19. Acosta played 85 minutes in the 2-0 win vs. Costa Rica in the tournament semifinals on July 22 and 55 minutes in the 2-1 win against Jamaica in the final.

FERREIRA IS BACK IN DALLAS Jesus Ferreira became the second-youngest player to score a goal in MLS history, behind Freddy Adu, on June 3. He is also the youngest player ever to appear in a match for FCD at 16 years and 161 days old. Ferreira is the son of 2010 MLS MVP David Ferreira. Jesus led the FC Dallas U-18 Academy team to the Dr Pepper Dallas Cup Super Group Championship in April.

RECORD BREAKERS FC Dallas became the first MLS team to score five goals in the first half in an eventual 6-2 win against Real Salt Lake on June 3.

FIRST GOAL WINS Since 2015, FCD is 34-1-6 when scoring first. Dallas’ only loss was a 2‐1 defeat to the LA Galaxy on Aug. 15, 2015.

UNDER THE RADAR Michael Barrios tied a franchise record for assists in a game on June 3.

Barrios assisted on goals by Lamah (8), Akindele (43) and Ferreira (89). Dallas’ Antonio Martinez completed the triple-assist match twice: 8/11/2001 and 5/18/2002.

GOALS IN A GAME For the fourth time in club history, FC Dallas scored six goals in a single match, tying a franchise record. Dallas recorded six goals @ Colorado on 6/16/2001, vs. SKC on 8/1/2009, @ LA on 9/12/2009 and now vs. RSL 6/3/2017.

RETURN OF THE UNICORN FC Dallas midfielder Mauro Diaz had surgery to repair a torn Achilles tendon in his lower right leg on Wednesday, Oct. 19. The injury occurred in Dallas’ 21 win against Seattle on Sunday, Oct. 16. Dr. Robert Anderson with OrthoCarolina in Charlotte, N.C., performed the procedure. Diaz returned on May 28, playing the final nine minutes of the Texas Derby. Diaz started his first match of the regular season in a 1-1 draw with Houston on June 23. He is averaging 0.40 assists (4 in 10 games) per game since his return – ABOVE his MLS career average of 0.36 (28 in 78 games) from 2013 to 2016.

BEST EVER FOR FCD With a regular-season record of 60-34-29 (current) with FCD, Oscar Pareja has the highest winning percentage (.606) of any coach in Dallas history. He was signed to a long-term contract extension on March 30, 2017.

14 STRAIGHT FCD went 14 consecutive regular-season matches without suffering a defeat from Sept. 17 to May 14, 2017. The streak was the second-longest streak in franchise history. Dallas had a 19-game unbeaten streak from May 27, 2010 to Oct. 9, 2010.

MLS TEAM OF THE WEEK/PLAYER OF THE WEEK FC Dallas’ Cristian Colman earned MLS Team of the Week honors with both goals in a 2-1 road win in Montreal on July 22. Ryan Hollingshead (July 4), Michael Barrios (July 4), Roland Lamah (June 3), Matt Hedges (May 6), Maxi Urruti (April 29), Carlos Gruezo (April 22), Jesse Gonzalez (April 8), Barrios (April 8), Urruti (March 18), Hedges (March 11) and Kellyn Acosta (March 4) have all been named to the TotW this season.

DALLAS CUP CHAMPS FC Dallas became the first MLS club to win the Dallas Cup Super Group. Its U18 team defeated Liga MX side CF Monterrey, 2-1, in the final at Toyota Stadium on Sunday, April 16. Three FC Dallas Homegrown players powered the club to victory, as 16-year-old forward Jesus Ferreira scored four goals in the tournament and 17-year-old midfielder Paxton Pomykal scored three, including one in the championship match. Eighteen-year-old defender Reggie Cannon helped anchor a stout Dallas defense that saw it outscore opponents 11-3 in the tournament, including a 5-0 victory over English Premier League side Everton and a 2-1 victory over Brazilian club Coritiba in the semifinals.

FCD IS YOUNGEST TEAM IN MLS FC Dallas got even younger during the offseason. The additions of teenage Homegrowns Reggie Cannon (19), Paxton Pomykal (17) Jesus Ferreira (16) and Bryan Reynolds (16) gave FCD the youngest average age in MLS (24.31).

REPRESENTING THE METROPLEX FC Dallas’ current roster has seven players who grew up in the DFW Metroplex, including Kellyn Acosta (Plano), Victor Ulloa (Wylie), Jesse Gonzalez (Dallas), Reggie Cannon (Grapevine), Jesus Ferreira (McKinney), Paxton Pomykal (Lewisville) and Bryan Reynolds (Ft. Worth).

FC Dallas Quote Sheet for match against Kansas City on Saturday, August 19 FC Dallas head coach Oscar Pareja On the improvement of the offense…

At this point, when you come in on Monday knowing you dropped two points at home against a rival or a game that we should have won then it seems like there is a bit of frustration. My job is to analyze the performance of the team and know how we lost points or won points, I have said this numerous times.

What a wonderful performance by the players. Now, we did not get the work [in] because it was the last touch and the last decision in the box that made us feel like we still have a lot of work to do towards what we want. But to have that many options in front of the goal makes us feel optimistic. The offensive performance was very good and I have to praise the players because last week I was very upset with the offensive performance and the intensity that we put into the games. We wanted to be very realistic on what we did, and when it’s good, it’s good and when it isn’t, we have to say it also, but this time it wasn’t the case because the boys played well.

FC Dallas midfielder Kellyn Acosta On the adaptable roster…

For us to really compete for the MLS Cup, we have to have a deep roster. Adding guys like Cristian [Colman], he’s basically doing all the things that he can do right, but besides finish the ball and I think that’s coming. I know he’s really anxious to keep scoring, so I was definitely happy to see him bag two goals, potentially three goals, against Montreal. But yeah, he’s a guy that brings a lot… he’s a quick guy and definitely a pest against a center back. So as long as you keep [Colman] going and keep him confident, I know the goals will keep on coming. And with Mauro [Diaz] coming and chugging along, we will be fine. We definitely have a great group. Our backline is pretty solid throughout, even though we let in seven goals in the past few games, but I know we can fine tune things and get things right.

FC Dallas midfielder Victor Ulloa On viewing the positives of a draw…

We have to take the positive out of this [past] game and we got a clean sheet, which we hadn’t done in the past two games, and got a point. It’s not what we wanted, but we’ll take it.

FC Dallas forward Maxi Urruti On the importance of not worrying…

It’s very important to know that every player can adapt to whatever formation Oscar [Pareja] wants. We know we’re anxious to get points now, but we have to be calm because we have a great group of players and we’ll be able to achieve great things.

On looking past the winless streak…

Unfortunately, we could have won this past game, but it didn’t turn out that way. We did everything possible. We played well and with clarity. But, we got caught in a streak that nobody wants to be in.

However, we know that this is a long season and we’re still high up in the standings, so we’re going to continue to fight.
