SPORTING KANSAS CITY vs SEATTLE SOUNDERS FC LIVESTRONG SPORTING PARK, Kansas City, Kan. 7:30 p.m. CT (KSMO; KONG) August 6, 2011 (WEEK 21; MLS Game 208) Their unbeaten streak reaching league-record territory, Sporting Kansas City continue their long homestand when Seattle Sounders FC come to Livestrong Sporting Park on Saturday night. Sporting extended their unbeaten run to league-best 14 games this season, with a 2-0 win against Real Salt Lake at midweek. Sounders FC are coming off a 31 loss at Houston in league play, though they advanced in the CONCACAF Champions League at home at midweek. REFEREE: Jair Marrufo.

Sounders FC have won the last four meetings between the teams in league play, five in a row when adding a U.S. Open Cup encounter. Kansas City’s only win all-time against Seattle came in 2009 at Qwest Field, a 1-0 victory in the first meeting ever between the clubs. Coaches record: Peter Vermes vs. SEA: P4 W0 L4 D0 … Sigi Schmid v KC: P37 W17 L15 D5 LAST MEETING (MLS) 5/21: SEA 1, KC 0 (Parke 93+) Once again, it was late heroics to give Sounders FC the victory against Kansas City. Jeff Parke scored his first MLS goal in seven years, heading home a Tyson Wahl corner kick three minutes into stoppage time for the winner. A year ago, Seattle snatched a late 1-0 win on a last-minute goal from Mike Fucito. SEATTLE SOUNDERS FC (4-1-3-2): Kasey Keller – James Riley, Jhon Kennedy Hurtado, Jeff Parke, Tyson Wahl - Osvaldo Alonso - Servando Carrasco (Nate Jaqua 55), Mauro Rosales (Mike Fucito 69), Alvaro Fernandez - Roger Levesque, Fredy Montero (Patrick Ianni 95+). SPORTING KANSAS CITY (4-2-3-1): Jimmy Nielsen - Michael Harrington, Aurelien Collin, Matt Besler, Roger Espinoza - Davy Arnaud, Craig Rocastle - Kei Kamara, Omar Bravo (Graham Zusi 76), Ryan Smith (Chance Myers 86) - Teal Bunbury (C.J. Sapong 73). SPORTING KANSAS CITY Sporting Kansas City extended their undefeated streak to 14 games, getting two first-half goals for a 2-0 win against Real Salt Lake on Wednesday evening at Livestrong Sporting Park. Sporting have 30 points from 22 matches on the season, tied for third place in the Eastern Conference. LAST MATCH Sporting opened the scoring on 29 minutes. Roger Espinoza stole a pass at the top of the box and burst into the area before driving a left-footed rocket just under the sprawling Nick Rimando in the RSL goal. Just five minutes later, SKC was up 2-0. Rimando made an impressive diving save on a Kei Kamara header from a long throw, but could only push it wide of the goalmouth, and Alex Bunbury swooped in to hammer the rebound off Rimando's hand and to the back of the net.
MLS GAME INFORMATION
Kansas City went down a man in the 56th minute after Espinoza was sent off for a tackle from behind on Kyle Beckerman, but the visitors could not take advantage. Sporting manager Peter Vermes made three changes to the team that grabbed a late 1-1 draw with the New England Revolution at Livestrong Sporting Park. Michael Harrington, Omar Bravo and Teal Bunbury came into the team, for Chance Myers, Daneil Cyrus and C.J. Sapong. SPORTING KANSAS CITY (4-2-3-1): Jimmy Nielsen - Michael Harrington, Julio Cesar, Matt Besler, Seth Sinovic - Roger Espinoza (sent off 57), Jeferson (Birahim Diop 79) - Kei Kamara (C.J. Sapong 74), Omar Bravo (Luke Sassano 94+), Graham Zusi - Teal Bunbury. TEAM NEWS The victory matched the LA Galaxy’s 14-game unbeaten streak as the longest in MLS this season, and is tied for the sixth-longest in MLS history. The LA Galaxy twice had streaks of 15 games (1997-98 and 2009-10); those marks are next on the leaderboard. Real Salt Lake and FC Dallas hold the record with 19-game unbeaten streaks. “I thought if you compare it to our last couple of games here at home and all the games that we’ve played throughout the season there is one other game I can compare this to and this was probably the best 90-minute performance that we’ve played all year,” said SKC manager Peter Vermes. Teal Bunbury has goals in back-to-back games for the second time this season, after netting in back-to-back games March 26 vs. Chicago and April 2 (two) vs. Vancouver – his last goals before scoring last weekend vs. New England. Roger Espinoza scored his first goal in MLS since his rookie season – July 17, 2008, during a 3-3 draw with the Columbus Crew, where he spent his college years. Roger was at a different level tonight. Not just his goal but his pressing and anticipation on the ball,” said Vermes. “I can’t tell you much about the red card because I really did not see it and I didn’t get a chance to see the replay even if there was one. … But the one thing I will say was that from the opening whistle his commitment to press the ball and cut out passing lanes was fantastic.” Sporting recorded a shutout for the first time since a scoreless result at the Philadelphia Union on June 22. “I think we played probably our best game this season over 90 minutes; very solid. In the first half I don’t think they had a shot on target,” said goalkeeper Jimmy Nielsen. “When we got a man down we still played with big discipline and very aggressive and hard but fair. I think overall a credit to the whole team. It was a tough performance by the team today.” Sporting have had three league games at midweek with a game following quickly at the weekend, and they’ve recorded two wins and a draw in those quick turnarounds. “We’re used to the quick turnaround. We’ve been playing Wednesdays and Saturdays for about the last month now,” said midfielder Graham Zusi. “We just need to get our bodies healthy again, and just come out the way we did tonight. Seattle is a good team, and during the week we really need to focus on the way we play.” SEATTLE SOUNDERS FC Seattle Sounders FC saw their undefeated run come to an end after nine games, falling 3-1 to the Houston Dynamo on Saturday evening at Robertson Stadium. Sounders FC have 38 points from 23 games on the season, sitting in third place in the Western Conference. LAST MATCH The Dynamo took the lead after seven minutes. Geoff Cameron sent in a cross that Brian Ching was unable to bring down, but Colin Clark was right there in the six-yard box to settle the ball and put home a left-footed shot. The home side doubled its lead in the 23rd minute when Cameron took a layoff from Brad Davis and put a curling ball in the box, where Ching sent a well-placed header just inside the left post. Seattle pulled within one in the 36th minute when forward Fredy Montero drew a foul in the penalty box after Corey Ashe caught him from behind. Referee Niko Bratsis immediately pointed to the spot, and Alvaro Fernandez converted the penalty kick. But the Dynamo restored their margin in the 70th minute after a furious sequence that saw Houston take three shots. Cam Weaver and Adam Moffat both saw efforts from distance blocked until Clark finally sent a rightfooted pass across the box that Ching buried from the corner of the six-yard box. Sounders FC head coach Sigi Schmid made no changes to the team that defeated the Colorado Rapids 4-3 at Qwest Field. SEATTLE SOUNDERS FC (4-4-2): Kasey Keller - James Riley, Jeff Parke, Patrick Ianni, Tyson Wahl - Mauro Rosales, Erik Friberg, Osvaldo Alonso, Alvaro Fernandez (Mike Fucito 78) - Fredy Montero (Pat Noonan 67), Roger Levesque (Nate Jaqua 57). TEAM NEWS In addition to seeing their club-record undefeated run come to an after nine games, Sounders FC saw their road unbeaten streak put to a stop after six games. Seattle had won five of their last six league games.
MLS GAME INFORMATION
“It just feels like a long stretch. I think right now their minds are a blank slate. I don’t know what they are feeling. I think they are feeling tired and disappointed and embarrassed,” said Sounders FC head coach Sigi Schmid. “We have to make sure we get together for our next game.” Alvaro Fernandez moved into a tie for the team lead with six goals, scoring for a second consecutive match and the third time in five league games. In the first 20 MLS games, Sounders FC conceded multiple goals in a game four times. They’ve now conceded multiple goals in each of the last three league games, allowing eight goals in that time. “It’s just frustrating because when you lose their leading goal scorer a couple times inside the six, and he bangs those balls in, those are the things that are frustrating. Getting beat on something special, it happens and I’m making them earn it,” said goalkeeper Kasey Keller. “But just giving them chance after chance is something we really need to get out of our game if we want to continue to make a run. Right now, it’s just too easy to score goals against us, and that’s not the way we normally play.” After the games of July 4, Sounders FC had the third-best defensive record in the league, allowing less than a goal per game (0.90). They have fallen to seventh in MLS (1.13); they still have the second-best attack in MLS, scoring 1.43 goals per game (33 in 23 games). “I think we have been a little bit shaky defensively for weeks now. We got to a stage where we couldn’t outscore the opponent. If you give away too many of those chances from six yards out, you are going to lose some games,” said Keller. “We have to clean up our game. We have been talking about it the past few weeks, and [against Houston] we got punished for it.” On Wednesday, Sounders FC went to extra time, but finally got past San Francisco FC of Panama in their CONCACAF Champions League preliminary round series. Alvaro Fernandez scored in the 41st minute to level the tie on aggregate, then Nate Jaqua scored in the 98th minute to send Sounders FC through to the group stage. Here’s the Sounders FC team: Kasey Keller, James Riley, Jeff Parke, Zach Scott, Leo Gonzalez, Mauro Rosales, Osvaldo Alonso, Erik Friberg (Servando Carrasco 112), Alvaro Fernandez (Lamar Neagle 111), Pat Noonan (Nate Jaqua 68), Fredy Montero.

potentially the most active month of all, it's only fitting that august begins with a pair of matches three days and 1500 miles apart for seattle sounders FC. First came the second and deciding leg of the the ConCaCaF Champions league preliminary round series followed by an opportunity for the rave Green to start another productive run of form. on wednesday night at Centurylink Field, sounders FC beat san Francisco FC, 2-0, in extra time to advance to the group stage 2-1 on aggregate. sounders FC will host Guatemala's Comunicaciones on august 16. The second round will be played at Mexico's Monterrey on august 22. on saturday night sounders FC (10-5-8, 38 points) are back on the road in Mls action, visiting the resurgent sporting kansas City (6-6-9, 27 points) at the impressive new liVesTronG sporting park. First kick is 5:30 p.m. pT on konG 6/16. seeking to rediscover the rhythm exhibited during a nine-match unbeaten streak, the rave Green must do so while living out of a travel bag. after spending an arduous week on the road in panama and Houston they come home for just four days before departing again. They are over halfway through a patch in which they play five of seven league fixtures away, yet still own the league's third-best point total. sounders FC have fond memories of kansas City, having secured Mls Cup playoff berths with victories there in each of the last two seasons. in fact, they have beaten kC in the last four Mls meetings and five times overall. But since sporting moved into their new home two months ago they have been unbeatable in a franchise-best 13 games, including a mark of 3-0-4 at liVesTronG going into wednesday's game versus real salt lake. sporting and new england drew, 1-1, last week. after starting the year with 10 straight on the road while their state-of-the-art stadium was completed, sporting will be playing seattle in the fourth of nine consecutive home dates from July 23 through september 10. kansas City beat real salt lake, 2-0, at home on wednesday night. while sounders FC holds a commanding 4-1 advantage in the kansas City series, each match has been decided by a single goal, including a stoppage-time header by Jeff parke in a 1-nil seattle home victory on May 21. The rave Green's attack, which was revving at a high rate with 13 goals scored in the final four wins of the unbeaten run, faces a stingy defense in kC. sporting has allowed more than one goal only once in the last 14 outings and a total of six goals in the first seven matches at home. saturday's match will be on 97.3 kiro FM. arlo white will handle the play calling. saturday's game can also be heard on la Gran D 99.3 FM. sounders FC are back at home on august 13 for a 1 p.m. pT bout with Chivas Usa. That game will be televised by kinG 5, rooT sports and THis-TV. Tickets for sounders FC home Mls and Champions league matches are available at www.soundersFC.com or by calling 800-745-3000.

sounders FC is shooting to become the first victorious visitor at liVesTronG sporting park. it's an opportunity and a challenge. sporting kC is unbeaten (3-0-4) in their first seven matches played at their new pitch. They host real salt lake on wednesday. seattle has ended some impressive home unbeaten runs, first by Columbus (22 games) in 2009 and then real salt lake (29 games) in 2011. in between the rave Green was the first road team to take three points at red Bull arena in 2010. They are 15-14-13 all-time on the road, including 4-3-5 this year. kansas City was the first team to beat seattle at home in Mls play.
the CoMebaCK tRaiL Upon their return home this week sounders FC may have their resources replenished. Central defender Jhon kennedy Hurtado is nearing his return from a sprained right MCl sustained on July 10 at portland. Forward o'Brian white is back and available for selection along with midfielder Brad evans. white played the final 14 minutes in the July 20 Manchester United friendly-his first action since april 22 at Colorado. The following week white underwent surgery to remove a blood clot in his left leg. evans, troubled by a hamstring strain, has missed four of the last six Mls matches. Goalkeeper Terry Boss was absent for the 18-man match roster for the first time in two years last week. Boss stayed home while recovering from a concussion sustained in the Man United friendly.

seattle has allowed three goals in consecutive matches for the first time in 38 games dating back to July 4, 2010. The Dynamo peppered the defense with 16 shots, including eight on target-the most since philadelphia's nine on June 27, 2010 (also a 3-1 road loss). prior to Houston, the last four opponents totaled nine shots on goal.

For the fourth time in five Mls games sounders FC found themselves down a goal early in Houston. against new england, portland and Colorado they had managed to rally and win. like the revs and rapids, the Dynamo went on top in the first seven minutes. in all there have been four goals allowed in the first eight minutes, with Colorado striking on the stroke of 60 seconds.
p e n a Lt y p h a s e seattle has now attempted more penalty kicks in the first two-thirds of 2011 than it did in the first two full seasons. alvaro Fernandez stroked his kick confidently into the left corner at Houston. it was the team's fifth try from the spot and fourth conversion. earlier Brad evans had connected twice and osvaldo alonso once. Two penalties were taken in both 2009 (no conversions) and 2010 (one conversion).
t h e 1 5 0 W at C h The pace has quickened on sigi schmid's march toward 150 career victories. He is now only one away from becoming the first in Mls to reach that plateau. schmid is the all-time leader in both regular season (149) and postseason (19) wins. last week extended his contract through 2015. His teams have won two Mls Cups, two supporters' shields (best record), and three lamar Hunt U.s. open Cups. Two of those open Cup triumphs have come with seattle, which became the first club in 28 years to successfully repeat as champions. sounders FC also became the first expansion team in 11 years to qualify for the Mls Cup playoffs in 2009 and qualified again in 2010. schmid's regular season record in seattle is 36-21-25 and 49-29-28 in all competitions.

KeLLeR Kept busy July ended with a flurry of activity for kasey keller. He played in three matches and traveled over 10,000 miles between seattle, panama, Houston, new York and back. when he wasn't flying the sounders FC captain was kept busy between the pipes. keller made a half-dozen saves to hold san Francisco to a single goal, then six more at Houston. a little more than 24 hours after leaving the field in panama City he played only seven minutes at the Mls all-star Game versus Manchester United. He was credited with one save. keller has now started 78 straight regular season games since april 25, 2009-the longest current run in Mls.

sounders FC saw their club record nine-game unbeaten streak end as Houston won comfortably on a hot night in Texas. alvaro Fernandez converted a first-half penalty for sounders FC but Brian Ching netted a brace and Colin Clark added a goal and an assist for the Dynamo, who clinched the season series. an eventful first-half featured three of the game's goals as well as three key saves by kasey keller. sounders FC allowed a pair of early goals as Houston quickly built a 2-0 lead. Clark struck in the 7th minute when Ching chested down a Geoff Cameron cross and Clark put the ball past keller. Houston doubled its lead in the 23rd minute after Brad Davis and Cameron combined on the flank. Cameron served a cross into the box that Ching headed into the back of the net. sounders FC pulled a goal back after Fernandez converted a penalty kick in the 36th minute. osvaldo alonso regained possession just outside the box and sent a cross to roger levesque at the back post. levesque headed the ball back in front of goal where Fredy Montero was fouled by Dynamo defender Corey ashe. keller kept the game close with back-to-back saves in the 33rd minute. Ching turned and fired a shot from inside the box that keller blocked followed by adam Moffat's long-range follow-up attempt that keller dived to grab.

Jaqua, a substitute in the 68th minute, connected on his series-clinching goal in the 98th minute. alvaro Fernandez received a ball up the left side from Mauro rosales and crossed it into the middle of the box, where Jaqua pounded it from point blank range past san Francisco FC goalkeeper Miguel Torres and into the back of the net for the goal, giving seattle the 2-0 lead on the night and 2-1 aggregate goal lead in the series. rosales and Fernandez were credited with an assist on the play. sounders FC dominated the flow of play early, totaling 12 shots through the first half alone, a number that included their first goal of the night. in the 41st minute, erik Friberg won a slide tackle challenge and played a ball forward to Fredy Montero on the left side. Montero rolled the ball into the corner of the box for leo Gonzalez on an overlapping run and Gonzalez sent a cross in for Fernandez, who struck a header that hit the inside of the right post and went into the back of the net for a goal. Fernandez's goal put seattle up 1-0 and tied the aggregate goal series, 1-1.
