SPORTING KANSAS CITY vs TORONTO FC SPORTING PARK, Kansas City, Kan. Aug. 16, 2014 (WEEK 23, MLS Game #216) 7:30 p.m. CT (KMCI-38; TSN2) Sporting Kansas City and Toronto FC meet for a third time this season when the Eastern Conference clubs look to maintain their lofty positions as they face off Saturday evening at Sporting Park. Sporting still lead the division, despite seeing their long undefeated run put to an end in a 2-0 loss at Vancouver last Sunday. Toronto FC are in third in the East as they chase a first MLS Cup Playoffs spot in club history, winning a second consecutive game in a 3-2 win at the Columbus Crew last weekend.

Second-half goals from Graham Zusi and Jacob Peterson brought SKC back from an early deficit for a 2-1 win July 26 at BMO Field. The teams played to a 2-2 draw May 23 at Sporting Park as KC’s Dom Dwyer scored two goals.  SKC has never lost to TFC at Sporting Park since the ground opened in 2011 (4-0-1). TFC’s last win in Kansas City came March 21, 2009.  Over the last four seasons, Toronto FC have defeated Sporting KC just once in six meetings at BMO Field (last March 9).  Coaches record: Peter Vermes vs. TOR: P12 W8 L1 T3 … Ryan Nelsen vs. KC: P5 W1 L3 T1 LAST MEETING (MLS)  The home side took the lead in the 16th minute. Dominic Oduro took a lovely first touch out of the air past a defender, then slipped a through ball to find Jackson rushing into the box, and he rounded SKC 'keeper Andy Gruenebaum before slotting home with ease.  But Sporting drew even just three minutes after the halftime break. After a scramble in the area saw the ball squirt out to the edge of the area, Graham Zusi latched onto it and curled the ball into an open net for the equalizer.  TFC were given a big leg up in the 75th minute when Oduro burst past KC defender Matt Besler and forced him into making a foul, one that saw the defender pick up his second yellow card of the night from referee Ted Unkel.  But SKC overcame the disadvantage to find the winner. A poor clearance attempt landed at the foot of Jacob Peterson, and he slotted home for the winner in the 80th minute.  TORONTO FC (4-4-2): Joseph Bendik - Nick Hagglund, Bradley Orr (Dwayne De Rosario 82), Doneil Henry, Justin Morrow - Dominic Oduro, Collen Warner (Jonathan Osorio 80), Michael Bradley, Jackson - Luke Moore, Gilberto.  SPORTING KANSAS CITY (4-1-2-3): Andy Gruenebaum - Igor Juliao, Aurelien Collin, Matt Besler (ejected 75), Seth Sinovic (Kevin Ellis 55) - Lawrence Olum - Mikey Lopez (Jacob Peterson 77), Benny Feilhaber - C.J.

MLS GAME INFORMATION


SPORTING KANSAS CITY Sporting Kansas City had their overall undefeated and road winning streaks put to an end, falling 2-0 to Vancouver Whitecaps FC on Sunday evening at BC Place. Sporting lead the Eastern Conference with 39 points from 23 games. LAST MATCH  Whitecaps FC were gifted the opening goal in the 17th minute. Pedro Morales hit a long, speculative ball forward that Igor Juliao headed back toward Sporting goalkeeper Andy Gruenebaum as he rushed off his line, and the ball sailed into the empty net.  The Vancouver advantage was doubled in the 39th minute. Morales picked off a pass in midfield then broke quickly up the middle on a two-on-one break before sliding the ball square to Darren Mattocks, and he made no mistake, lashing home a low shot from just outside the box.  Mattocks had a chance to grab his second of the night with a late penalty, after SKC defender Aurelien Collin was adjudged by referee David Gantar to have pulled down Omar Salgado in the box. But Sporting ‘keeper Jon Kempin, making his MLS debut after coming on for the injured Gruenebaum at the half, got a hand to the shot to push it off the post and out.  Sporting manager Peter Vermes made two changes to the team that reached a 1-1 draw with Philadelphia Union at Sporting Park. Matt Besler and Seth Sinovic came into the team, replacing Kevin Ellis and Antonio Dovale.  SPORTING KANSAS CITY (4-1-2-3): Andy Gruenebaum (Jon Kempin 46) - Igor Juliao (C.J. Sapong 64), Aurelien Collin, Matt Besler, Seth Sinovic - Jorge Claros - Mikey Lopez, Benny Feilhaber - Jacob Peterson (Soony Saad 78), Dom Dwyer, Graham Zusi TEAM NEWS  Sporting Kansas City had their long undefeated and road winning streaks put to an end in the loss at Vancouver. It snapped an eight-game unbeaten run overall, and four-game winning run away from Sporting Park, the club’s first defeat since a 1-0 loss at D.C. United on May 31.  “We've got a lot to play for, and you can't go out in games and think that it's just going to be a walkthrough, a walk in the park,” SKC manager Peter Vermes said. “The mentality was not right. Obviously, the mentality's been very good as of late, but it's a thing that you have to bring consistently. When you don't, in this league, you get your butt handed to you.”  Sporting could be down to their third-string goalkeeper for the Toronto FC match. Homegrown goalkeeper Jon Kempin made his MLS debut in the loss in Vancouver, coming on as a halftime substitute when Andy Gruenebaum suffered a right shoulder strain. First-choice goalkeeper Eric Kronberg is still out after suffering a fractured hand at the start of July.  “Obviously that was my debut … It’s always tough, because you don’t get much of a warm-up or notice (as a substitute), but I was definitely very happy to get in,” Kempin said.  Said Vermes: “I think it'll be hard for [Gruenebaum] to be ready for this weekend, but it's not an extended thing. There's no damage. They did an MRI and everything, so it's really going to be based on pain tolerance and we'll see where that goes. That is a day-to-day situation.”  Kempin did not concede a goal in his 45 minutes, and also stopped the first penalty kick faced in his MLS career. At midweek, he was named MVP of the Chipotle MLS Homegrown Game as part of the All-Star Game festivities.  “He played well,” Vermes said. “He makes a save off the penalty, he does a good job. He was getting all the pieces. He didn't get tested too much, but when he had to be big, he was with the penalty. But there was no way we were going to put the ball in the back of the net today, nor really create a bunch of chances. That's not going to happen when you have a lackadaisical attitude, and that's my responsibility. I'll be taking care of that pretty quickly.”  Sporting’s four members of the MLS All-Star team – defenders Aurelien Collin and Matt Besler, midfielder Graham Zusi and striker Dom Dwyer (along with Homegrown Game participant Kempin) – all joined the club in Vancouver.  “From a physical perspective, no I don’t think so, but obviously, all four of the guys from the All-Star game for sure didn’t have their best games today, so that definitely has to have something to do with it, I would assume, because they didn’t have any training with us all week,” said Vermes.  Said Besler: “No effect. Anyone that says it affects you – that’s just an excuse. Like I said, the mentality wasn’t good enough and we didn’t play the way we could.” TORONTO FC Toronto FC won their second consecutive match, getting a late winner for a 3-2 victory against the Columbus Crew on Saturday evening at Crew Stadium. TFC sit in third place in the Eastern Conference, with 32 points from 21 matches. LAST MATCH

MLS GAME INFORMATION


Toronto opened scoring in the 43rd minute. Pushing forward out of the TFC end, Luke Moore found Gilberto in plenty of space just off the Crew back line. Gilberto was then able to turn and curl a low shot past goalkeeper Steve Clark inside the right post.  But the Crew were able to pull even just before break. A Federico Higuain corner kick found the head of Tony Tchani, and his header seemed destined for goal, until making contact with Toronto defender Justin Morrow's flailing arm, and referee Marcos de Oliviera awarded the penalty kick. Higuain confidently slotted home the ensuing spot kick in stoppage time.  The visitors again took the lead just before the hour mark. A trio of Toronto players broke toward goal, and Moore's lunging effort bounced off the Columbus goalkeeper. The rebound fell perfectly for Jonathan Osorio, who calmly put Toronto ahead in front of an open net.  But the Crew again found a response in the 82nd minute when substitute Justin Meram hit a cross from the left flank that bounced past a fooled TFC goalkeeper Joe Bendik and snuck inside the far post.  Yet there was still one more answer from Toronto just two minutes later. Moore found space in the box and finishing a Collen Warner corner kick with a diving header for the match-winner.  TFC head coach Ryan Nelsen made no changes to the team that defeated the Montréal Impact 2-0 at Stade Saputo.  TORONTO FC (4-4-2): Joseph Bendik - Warren Creavalle, Doneil Henry, Nick Hagglund, Justin Morrow Dominic Oduro (Jackson 61), Collen Warner, Michael Bradley, Jonathan Osorio - Luke Moore (Kyle Bekker 90), Gilberto. TEAM NEWS  Toronto FC have won back-to-back games for a third time this season – they still have yet to put together a three-game winning streak in league play.  “We just want to try and evolve as a team. Every day, every week, we are trying to improve the team. We know we aren’t at the end product yet. We are still looking to always improve the team,” said TFC head coach Ryan Nelsen. “If you saw us in the start, you have seen a really nice improvement. We always want to try and get better and better, but there is still a lot we need to work on.”  Added Michael Bradley: “We need to be a little more consistent. We need to be a little bit more ruthless, a little bit more determined to walk off the field every week with points. I think if that part can come around, and I think it is, then we are going to have the chance to be a very good team in this league.”  Gilberto and Luke Moore each scored their second goals in as many games, starting together in attack in each match as Jermain Defoe has been sidelined with a groin injury.  Moore also played provider on both of Gilberto’s goals, and now has three assists to go with his five goals.  “We never for a second lost faith in him [Gilberto]. I know at times the media can be a little different. I know, especially for forwards, how important it is just to get goals. Even on days when he doesn’t score his contribution is so important,” said Bradley. “Together with Luke Moore, they were such a handful tonight and really did such a good job making the game difficult for their defenders.”  The victory also gave Toronto FC four points breathing room in third place in the Eastern Conference, as the club chases the first appearance in the MLS Cup Playoffs in its history. TFC also has two games in hand on almost all of the teams around them in the conference (except D.C. United).  “This was a huge game for us,” Nelsen said. “Absolutely a huge game. This is a game against a rival who was on our heels and it gives us that separation. We want to hunt down [second-place] D.C. United and it was a really critical game for this part of the season.”  Dominic Oduro made a fifth consecutive start on the right of midfield, but had to come out against his former club just after the hour mark.  “Dom got a knock really early. He felt it for the whole game. It probably put him a bit out of sync,” said Nelsen. “The Columbus guys probably know Dom better than we do. He soldiered on and really put on a good performance. Obviously, he is disappointed he didn’t, but a lot of the guys have done really well.”  TFC have also won back-to-back games away from BMO Field, after going six consecutive matches without a road victory (going 0-2-4).  “We do have a confidence about us when we’re away from home because we know we play a brand of football that’s very dynamic,” Nelsen said. “It’s very attack-minded and it causes teams trouble away from home because a lot of teams, at home, open themselves up. At home, they’re a bit more carefree and open and we play an attacking brand of football that can hurt teams if they’re not in the right kind of organization.”

last time they met The teams last met in the MLS regular season on July 26, 2014 at BMO Field. Sporting KC beat Toronto FC 2-1 and extended their club record road winning streak to five games. Jackson’s 16th-minute goal put the hosts ahead, but second half strikes from midfielders Graham Zusi and Jacob Peterson gave the MLS champions their first come-from-behind victory in 2014. Zusi leveled the contest in the 48th minute, curling in a Goal of the Week winner after the ball rolled loose inside the penalty box. Sporting KC then suffered a blow at the 75-minute mark when captain Matt Besler received his second caution and the first red card of his six-year career. Down a man, however, Sporting KC took a shock lead with 10 minutes left. Just three minutes after his introduction, substitute Peterson was on the receiving end of Dom Dwyer’s back-heel pass and finished neatly into the corner of the net. Saturday is the third and final contest between the clubs this season, having battled to a 2-2 draw at Sporting Park on May 23. Sporting KC’s .675 all-time winning percentage versus Toronto FC (11-4-5) is their highest against any MLS club.

sporting kc news & notes Besler and Zusi sign Designated Player contracts with Sporting KC Sporting KC signed defender Matt Besler and midfielder Graham Zusi to longterm Designated Player contracts on July 19. Per club policy, additional terms of the agreements will not be disclosed. An Overland Park native, Besler became the first player from the state of Kansas to play in a FIFA World Cup when he started all four matches for the United States in Brazil this summer. The 27-year-old centerback debuted for the U.S. in January 2013 and has 21 career international appearances, including all three knockout round games en route to the 2013 CONCACAF Gold Cup title. Besler was named captain of the reigning MLS Cup champions prior to the 2014 season and was recognized as the Kansas City Sports Commission Sportsman of the Year in April. Besler has made 150 MLS appearances (including postseason) with two goals and seven assists since being drafted by Kansas City in the first round of the 2009 MLS SuperDraft out of Notre Dame.

Sporting KC news & Notes (continued) Sporting KC posts club record five-game road winning streak

League pool goalkeeper Tim Melia joins Sporting KC

Prior to a 2-0 loss at the Vancouver Whitecaps on Aug. 10, Sporting KC had won five consecutive MLS road matches at the Houston Dynamo (June 6), Portland Timbers (June 27), Montreal Impact (July 12), Columbus Crew (July 16) and Toronto FC (July 26). The five-game road winning streak tied the fourth longest in MLS history and second longest in the non-shootout era (2000-present). The run fell one victory short of the San Jose Earthqaukes’ six-game stretch in 2005.

Sporting KC announced on Aug. 13 that League pool goalkeeper Tim Melia has joined the club. A five-year veteran of MLS, Melia played two seasons with Real Salt Lake (2010-2011) before signing with Chivas USA (2012-2014). Over that span, the 28-year-old made six MLS appearances while also playing on loan for the Charleston Battery and FC New York.

Sporting KC leads MLS with seven road victories and is the only team with three clean sheets away from home. Since the beginning of 2011, no team has more regular season road victories (27) or shutout road wins (13) than Sporting KC.

Melia arrives in Kansas City due to injuries to Eric Kronberg and Andy Gruenebaum. Kronberg fractured the fourth metacarpal bone on his left hand in July and is in the midst of an eight-week recovery, while Gruenebaum strained his supraspinatus in the team’s most recent match and is day-to-day.

Gruenebaum makes history as Sporting KC’s starting goalkeeper

Injuries and international duty test Sporting KC’s depth

Goalkeeper Andy Gruenebaum has a 4-1-1 record since replacing injured Eric Kronberg on July 12. He became just the second goalkeeper in MLS history (Jorge Campos, 1996 LA Galaxy) to earn regulation wins in each of his first four regulation appearances for a new club.

Through 23 games in the 2014 MLS regular season, Sporting KC has featured 23 different starting lineups. Peter Vermes’ lineup selection has been complicated by several factors throughout the year. In March, the club had to balance multiple competitions during the CONCACAF Champions League quarterfinals. In May, schedule congestion came to the forefront with seven MLS games during the month. More recently, goalkeepers Eric Kronberg and Andy Gruenebaum suffered injuries, giving Jon Kempin his first MLS start for the club.

Gruenebaum began his 2014 MLS campaign with a 2-1 win at Montreal, then notched three more 2-1 victories against the Columbus Crew (July 16), LA Galaxy (July 19) and Toronto FC (July 26) as Sporting KC surged atop the Eastern Conference standings. The Overland Park, Kansas native previously made 82 MLS appearances for the Crew (including postseason) from 2006-2013.

Kempin marks MLS debut with penalty kick save Homegrown goalkeeper Jon Kempin made his MLS debut in the second half of Sporting KC’s 2-0 loss at the Vancouver Whitecaps on Aug. 10. He marked his first League appearance with a penalty kick save in the 84th minute, denying Darren Mattocks and preserving his 45-minute clean sheet. Andy Gruenebaum injured his right shoulder making a save in the 13th minute and required replacement at halftime of the match with Sporting KC down 2-0. First-string goalkeeper Eric Kronberg remained sidelined with an injured hand, prompting Kempin to step between the posts for the first time in his MLS career. His penalty kick stop earned a Save of the Week nomination. In a rare set of circumstances, Kempin is just the third goalkeeper in MLS history to record the first save of his career on a penalty kick, following Miami Fusion’s Matt Napoleon in August 1998 and LA Galaxy’s Brian Perk in July 2011. Moreover, he is the fifth goalkeeper all-time to save a penalty in his MLS debut and the fifth-youngest MLS keeper to save a penalty (21 years, 125 days). Kempin was Sporting KC’s first Homegrown player upon signing in 2010 at age 17 and is now in his fifth professional season. He most recently joined the United States U-21 Men’s National Team in April and has also trained with the U.S. U-23 Men’s National Team.

Benny Feilhaber named MLS Player of the Month for July Midfielder Benny Feilhaber was named MLS Player of the Month for July, becoming the third different Sporting KC player to win the award in the past three months, following Dom Dwyer in May and Eric Kronberg in June. Sporting KC is now the first team to claim Player of the Month honors in three consecutive months in the League’s 19-year history. The 29-year-old led Sporting KC to the top of the Supporters’ Shield standings with a League-high 13 points (4-0-1) in July. Feilhaber contributed to both goals in a 2-1 win at the Columbus Crew on July 16, setting up C.J. Sapong for a 42nd-minute header before scoring the match-winner in second half stoppage time. Three days later, he scored a sublime free kick goal against the LA Galaxy to hand the four-time MLS champions their only loss in the past 12 games. Feilhaber currently leads the team with five assists and ranks second among Sporting KC players with four goals in all competition this season. In addition, he has suffered the second most fouls among all MLS players this season (57).

To complicate matters, Chance Myers and Ike Opara have suffered seasonending injuries; Matt Besler, Graham Zusi and Lawrence Olum have seen extended international action; and Erik Palmer-Brown and Aurelien Collin have served one-game suspensions, with the latter also picking up a minor injury. As a result, 28 different players have started an MLS match for the club this season, most in the League. Of those 28 players, 11 were 23 years of age or younger at the start of the season. The club’s defense has been stretched most of all, with eight different players featuring in the centerback position during the 2014 campaign. Overall, 30 players have appeared for the club in an MLS match this year, most among all teams.

Dwyer chasing club’s single season scoring record Forward Dom Dwyer ranks tied for second in MLS with 14 goals and has already climbed into third place on the club’s single season scoring chart. With 11 matches remaining, he needs five more goals to pass Preki’s long-standing single season record (18). Dwyer’s four multi-goal games are most in MLS this season and tied for sixth most in team history. In League play, he ranks first in shots (78), third in shots on goal (32) and first in left-footed goals (nine) and headed goals (three). In a victory at Montreal on July 12, Dwyer became one of only 10 players in MLS history to score six or more regular season goals against the same opponent in a single year and the first to do so in the League’s expansion era (2005-present).

Claros and Steuble make competitive club debuts After signing for the club on July 16, Honduran midfielder Jorge Claros and Swiss-Filipino midfielder Martin Steuble saw their first competitive action in a Sporting KC jersey against the Philadelphia Union on Aug. 1. Claros played the entire match and Steuble entered in the 89th minute. Claros has played 53 games for the Honduras Men’s National Team and has scored three goals since making his debut in 2006. The 28-year-old midfielder featured in all three matches at the 2014 FIFA World Cup alongside former Sporting KC midfielder Roger Espinoza. He signs from Honduran club Club Deportivo Motagua, where he won domestic league titles during the 2007-08 Apertura and 2010-11 Clausura. Steuble joins Sporting KC after seven years of professional soccer in Switzerland, most recently with Swiss Challenge League club FC Wil 1900. The 26-year-old has featured nine times for the Philippines Men’s National Team since making his international debut in March of this year.

Sporting KC news & Notes (continued) CONCACAF Champions League approaches for Sporting KC

Besler, Collin, Dwyer and Zusi feature in MLS All-Star victory

Sporting KC enters the 2014-15 CONCACAF Champions League group stage alongside Nicaraguan club Real Esteli and Costa Rican club Deportivo Saprissa in Group 2. For the second straight year, Peter Vermes’ men will open the tournament at Real Esteli on Aug. 19.

Matt Besler, Aurelien Collin, Dom Dwyer and Graham Zusi saw action in the 2014 MLS All-Star game on Aug. 6 as the MLS All-Stars defeated FC Bayern Munich 2-1 at Providence Park in Portland.

The defending MLS Cup champions will then return home for back-to-back matches at Sporting Park, hosting Saprissa on Thursday, Sept. 18 and Esteli on Tuesday, Sept. 23. Both matches will kick off at 7 p.m. CT. Sporting KC will conclude the group stage on Thursday, Oct. 23 at Saprissa. Esteli and Saprissa kicked off Group 2 action on Aug. 6, battling to a 1-1 draw in Nicaragua. The team with the most points at the conclusion of the CCL group stage will advance to the quarterfinal round in spring 2015. Sporting KC advanced to the 2013-14 quarterfinals in March against Mexican club and eventual champion Cruz Azul, losing 5-2 on aggregate. Deportivo Saprissa has won three CONCACAF Champions Cup titles (1993, 1995 and 2005) and features two players, Michael Umana and Yeltsin Tejeda, who helped Costa Rica advance to the 2014 FIFA World Cup quarterfinals. In May, Saprissa won their 30th league title in the Torneo de Verano final to become the most successful club in the history of the Costa Rican Primera Division. Real Esteli, the defending Clausura and Apertura champions in their domestic league, are the only Nicaraguan side to have participated in the competition and have qualified every year since the 2008-09 edition.

Sporting Park sellout streak Sporting Park has sold out 47 straight MLS matches, including four playoff games. The last time Sporting KC didn’t play in front of a sellout was March 25, 2012. Since opening in June 2011, the venue has sold out 60 of 68 MLS games and averaged 19,290 spectators, 104.5 percent of its 18,467 capacity. Through 11 MLS matches of the 2014 home campaign, Sporting Park’s average attendance is 20,126. The stadium’s 109.0 percent capacity this season ranks first in the League (excluding CenturyLink Field in Seattle, where official capacity is 38,500 but expands to 67,000 for select matches).

Paying the penalty Sporting KC has conceded six penalty kicks through 23 matches this year, one shy of equaling the most for a single season in club history. The team conceded seven penalties in 1998 and 2007. Referees have pointed to the spot at an increased rate in 2014, as 100 penalty kicks have been awarded (0.48 per game, as of Aug. 14). The whole 2013 regular season had 81 penalties (0.25 per game), while the 2012 campaign had 72 penalties (0.22 per game).

Red cards rising Sporting KC has suffered seven red cards and received six during the 2014 season. The combined 13 ejections through 22 matches already surpass the club’s 2013 total of 10. Much like penalty kicks, red card numbers have increased League-wide this season. An average of 0.29 red cards have been shown per game (through Aug. 14), up from 0.24 in 2013 and 0.18 in 2012.

First half lockdown Sporting KC ties a League low with eight first half goals allowed in MLS matches this season (and just one at home). Two of those eight were penalty kicks, meaning Sporting KC has allowed just six first half goals from the run of play in 2014 MLS competition.

Besler, Collin and Zusi started and played 45 minutes before exiting at halftime, while Dwyer entered the fray in the 71st minute. The reigning German Bundesliga and FIFA Club World Cup champions went ahead early through Robert Lewandowski’s impressive half volley, but New York Red Bulls striker Bradley Wright Phillips equalized with a spectacular long range effort shortly after the break. Fourteen-time MLS All-Star Landon Donovan struck the 70thminute game-winner and earned match MVP honors. Besler has twice collected MLS Best XI (2012, 2013) honors and is a three-time MLS All-Star (2011, 2013, 2014). He was awarded MLS Defender of the Year in 2012 before being named a finalist again in 2013. Besler was Sporting KC’s Defensive Player of the Year each of the past three seasons. Collin earned MLS All-Star honors for a third consecutive year after signing with Sporting KC in April 2011. The 28-year-old centerback was a member of the MLS Best XI each of the last two seasons and was a Defender of the Year finalist in 2012. His 15 goals are most among defenders in MLS competition since 2011. Zusi, an MLS Best XI selection in 2012 and 2013, was also an All-Star for the third straight season. In 2013, Zusi was nominated for Best MLS Player at the ESPYS and was the top rated midfielder in the MLS Castrol Index. He has been voted Sporting KC’s Most Valuable Player each of the last two years.

Peterson Joseph and Sporting KC part ways Sporting KC announced on Aug. 11 that the club has mutually agreed to part ways with midfielder Peterson Joseph. The 24-year-old appeared in 36 MLS matches (including postseason), three CONCACAF Champions League fixtures and three U.S. Open Cup victories since joining the team in September 2011. A Haiti international, Joseph has been on the Disabled List since the start of the 2014 season and his last appearance for the club came in October 2013.

Sporting KC a consistent contender in MLS Since the beginning of 2011, Sporting KC has the third best aggregate regular season record and the best road record of all MLS teams. During this time period, Sporting KC has won two major trophies -- the 2012 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup and the 2013 MLS Cup -- and is the only club with multiple conference regular season titles (2011, 2012).
