Sporting KC Game Notes | August 18, 2021 vs. Portland Timbers | SportingKC.com/Game-Notes #SKCvPOR: HEAD-TO-HEAD

#SKCvPOR: BY THE NUMBERS

Sporting Kansas City (11-4-4, 37 pts.) returns home this week as the team prepares to take on the Portland Timbers (7-9-2, 23 pts.) at Children’s Mercy Park on Wednesday night. Sporting is coming off a strong showing in Dallas, earning a 2-0 victory on Saturday night, while the Timbers are licking their wounds after suffering a 6-2 home defeat to long-time rivals Seattle Sounders FC on Sunday. Sporting KC is 7-5-5 all-time against the Timbers in the regular season, and have lost just four of their last 15 matches in all competitions against head coach Giovanni Savarese’s side. The two sides met on June 19, 2021 at Providence Park, with Portland claiming a come-from-behind victory. Jaylin Lindsey gave Sporting KC the lead midway through the first half before Dairon Asprilla rifled home an equalizer from the edge of the area. On the stroke of halftime, Marvin Loria scored what would prove to be the game-winning goal after prodding home from close range. Sporting last hosted the Timbers at Children’s Mercy Park on Sept. 29, 2019 - the club’s regular-season finale that season - playing to a 2-2 draw. After falling behind to Sebastian Blanco’s opener, Krisztian Nemeth and Daniel Salloi turned the game around with goals either side of halftime. Dairon Asprilla converted a late penalty for Portland to claim a share of the points. #SKCvPOR: Recent Meetings (SKC leads 7-5-5 in regular season)

SPORTING KANSAS CITY NEWS AND NOTES

SALLOI’S MVP TEAR CONTINUES

Sporting Kansas City (11-4-4, 37 pts.) is back at home on Wednesday night to take on the Portland Timbers (7-9-2, 23 pts.) at Children’s Mercy Park. Sporting recently completed a three-game road swing with a 2-0-1 mark following Saturday’s victory over FC Dallas at Toyota Stadium, while Sporting is also in the midst of a 4-0-1 stretch on the road - their last road loss incidentally coming at the Portland Timbers on June 19.

As if anyone still needed reminding, Sporting Kansas City Homegrown forward Daniel Salloi is a MLS MVP candidate in 2021. The winger tallied his 11th goal and sixth assist of the camaign during Saturday night’s 2-0 victory over FC Dallas at Toyota Stadium. • • • • • •

Sporting’s five-game road unbeaten streak in a single MLS regular season is tied for the second longest in club history. Incredibly enough, the team has taken 13 points during a five-match away stretch for only the third time ever. Sporting’s ability to take points from some of the toughest stadiums in the country has been remarkable, as the recent 4-0-1 stretch against the LA Galaxy, Seattle Sounders FC, LAFC, Colorado Rapids and Dallas has come against teams that have lost just 17 of their 87 regular season home matches since the start of 2020.

• •

Those five aforementioned teams have posted a combined record of 53-17-27 since the start of the 2020 campaign - a winning percentage of 68.6%, while Sporting marched into those buildings and posted a 90% winning percentage.

Sporting now returns home where the side has gone 5-1-3 in 2021, seeing their unbeaten start shattered in their last MLS home game against FC Dallas on July 31. Peter Vermes’ side will look to make Children’s Mercy Park a fortress for the remainder of 2021 as the team battles for top spot in the Western Conference and chases Supporters’ Shield leaders the New England Revolution.

• •

PULIDO PRODUCES

Sporting Kansas City striker Alan Pulido tallied once again during Saturday night’s 2-0 victory over FC Dallas at Toyota Stadium. The Mexican international struck from a tight angle in the 12th minute in what would stand up as the game-winning goal, before also recording an assist on Daniel Salloi’s strike in the second half.

PREPARING FOR PORTLAND

Sporting Kansas City returns home to take on the Portland Timbers at Children’s Mercy Park on Wednesday night coming off an impressive 2-0 victory on the road against FC Dallas at Toyota Stadium. They will take on a Timbers side still smarting from a 6-2 home thumping at the hands of their closest rivals, Seattle Sounders FC, on Sunday night.

Since the start of 2020, the 30-year-old forward leads MLS with 0.97 goals per 90 minutes in the regular season (minimum 1,000 minutes played). Placing fifth on the list below is Salloi, thanks entirely to his phenomenal 2021 campaign. Sporting KC is also 11-1-0 when Pulido scores in the regular season.

The two sides met at Providence Park in the Pacific Northwest on June 19, 2021, with Portland walking away with all three points. Jaylin Lindsey gave Sporting the lead midway through the first half with a brilliant first-time finish just inside the area, only for the Timbers to hit back with a pair of goals before halftime through Dairon Asprilla and Marvin Loria. Sporting dominated the second half but was unable to make their statistical advantages count.

Pulido signed with Sporting in late 2019 in a club-record transfer from C.D. Guadalajara in Liga MX. Pulido has bagged 15 goals and seven assists across 28 appearances (23 starts) in all competitions, while also spending significant time away from the team to represent the Mexico National Team.

FONTAS EARNS TEAM OF THE WEEK HONORS

Sporting Kansas City centerback Andreu Fontas continued his excellent 2021 season by helping Sporting to their second consecutive shutout on Saturday night following a 2-0 victory over FC Dallas at Toyota Stadium. Fontas’ performance earned him a spot on the MLS Team of the Week.

Wednesday marks Portland’s first visit to Children’s Mercy Park since Sporting’s final home game of the 2019 campaign, a 2-2 draw on Sept. 29, 2019. Sebastian Blanco gave the Timbers an early lead in that contest only for Sporting’s two Hungarians to get in on the act as Krisztian Nemeth equalized before Daniel Salloi put the hosts in front. Portland salvaged a point at the death after Asprilla was fouled by Ilie Sanchez in the penalty area, leading to a penalty and a red card, with Asprilla dusting himself off to convert the penalty.

Over the course of 90 faultless minutes, Fontas recorded game-highs in clearances (four), passes (88), passes completed (78) and touches (95). For good measure, he added three successful duels, three recoveries and two interceptions as Sporting returned to the summit of the Western Conference with their sixth away victory of 2021.

Despite a down-tick in form against the Timbers since the start of 2019 (0-2-1), Sporting still leads the all-time regular-season series 7-5-5 - including a 3-1-3 record at home. In 2021, Sporting is 5-1-3 at home while Portland are 1-6-1 on the road.

Fontas joined Sporting KC midway through the 2018 season, becoming a starter ahead of the 2019 campaign but saw his season cut short following Achilles surgery that saw him also miss the majority of the truncated 2020 campaign. In 2021, Fontas has gone from strength to strength, starting 18 of first-place Sporting’s 19 games.

MELIA POSTS BACK-TO-BACK SHUTOUTS

Sporting Kansas City goalkeeper Tim Melia has shaken off an early-season injury to return to some of his best form of late, including shutouts in back-to-back games for the first time this season following a 0-0 draw with Colorado on Aug. 7 and a 2-0 victory over FC Dallas on Aug. 14.

POSTGAME PV

Thoughts on the win at FC Dallas: “I thought from the opening whistle all the way to the very end – and I’m blown away by 10 minutes of extra time – we managed the game as a team in a good way. I’m proud of the guys. They played. They were good with the ball. Two great goals. Defended and fought for everything. Sacrificed bodies to block stuff and didn’t give up. I’m very, very happy with the guys and happy for them and proud of them because I know that they want it. They’re fighting for it. Obviously, there’s a lot of good teams in this league and we’re just trying to compete with them. I appreciate the effort of the guys. I appreciate the mentality. It was big time.”

Melia was credited with two saves on the night, denying Szabolcs Schon from close range early on before keeping Jader Obrian’s effort out of the net midway through the second half. During Sporting’s recent 4-0-1 run on the road, the team has scored 11 goals and conceded just two during the five-game stretch despite being outshot 81-45. That means Sporting has cashed in on 24.4% of their shot attempts, while Melia and the backline have limited their opponents to a shot conversion rate of only 2.5%. Melia now has four shutouts on the season, while his 0.93 goals against average is tied for the third-best in MLS among goalkeepers to have made at least 10 appearances in 2021. In addition, his 0.93 goals against average would be the fifth best across one season in club history.

On the play of Daniel Salloi and the front six: “There’s no doubt that he’s in form, for sure. You’re also feeling good and you’re confident in your areas of the field that you’re trying to get into. For him, it’s in and around the box. He feels good around there. You can also talk about the first goal and the build up to that. The slip by Gadi Kinda. Alan (Pulido), what a great run of play to score with his left foot. Johnny (Russell) in his first game back, he’s not 90 minutes fit but he fought all the way through to 100 minutes. A good performance by those guys. It really was. Those guys all worked really hard. Gadi was a monster. I thought Roger (Espinoza) was (too). Remi (Walter) did a great job and was really disciplined in the middle of the park. He won and broke up a lot of plays. A really good all-around performance by the guys.”

Salloi is tied for the MLS lead with 17 combined goals (11) and assists (six). He ranks third in the MLS Golden Boot race, two behind leader Raul Ruidiaz. His 11 non-penalty goals are the most in MLS. He is tied for fourth on the league’s assist chart with six. He is tied for the MLS lead with five game-winning goals. He is tied for second in MLS with three game-winning assists, meaning he has scored or assisted on eight of Sporting’s 11 game-winning goals this season. He has scored or assisted in five straight MLS matches, in seven of his last eight, and in 10 of his last 13. According to FBRef.com, he ranks fourth in MLS with 8.0 expected goals, a total he has outperformed by three goals. According to FBRef.com, he ranks sixth in MLS with 10 goal-creating actions, defined as the two offensive actions directly leading to a goal, such as passes, dribbles and drawing fouls. He also ranks sixth with 19 carries into the penalty area. He ranks third in MLS with 97 touches in the opponent’s box. According to Opta, he ranks third among MLS forwards with 27 chances created.

Sporting KC Game Notes | August 18, 2021 vs. Portland Timbers | SportingKC.com/Game-Notes Manager & Sporting Director | Peter Vermes

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

Peter Vermes is in his 13th season as Sporting Kansas City Manager in 2021 and is the longest-tenured active head coach in MLS. He is the team’s longest-serving manager and his 201 coaching victories in all competitions are the most club history. During his tenure, he has won four major trophies – the 2012, 2015 and 2017 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cups and the 2013 MLS Cup championship – and finished atop the Eastern Conference regularseason standings in 2011 and 2012, as well as the Western Conference in 2018 and 2020. His three U.S. Open Cup championships are the third most in Open Cup history. He is the first coach in club history to lead Sporting KC to eight straight postseason appearances, as well as the only person to ever win the MLS Cup as both a player and a coach with the same team. His 166 regular-season wins top the club’s all-time chart and rank fifth most in MLS history. He passed his former coach Bob Gansler as the winningest manager in team history with a 3-1 win over Real Salt Lake on Aug. 12, 2015, his 109th victory in all competitions.

He started his professional career with the New York/New Jersey MetroStars, where he played in 39 games over two seasons. After spending one season with the Lehigh Valley Steam (USL-1), Zavagnin came to Kansas City in 2000. He played 237 games (228 starts) and logged 20,516 minutes for Kansas City, setting team records in both categories before both were overtaken by Matt Besler early in 2018. He scored eight goals and added 22 assists in his nine seasons in Kansas City blue. Zavagnin was named Team Defender of the Year in 2001.

On August 4, 2018, Vermes coached his 302nd MLS regular-season game with Sporting KC, becoming the league’s all-time leader in games coached for one club. He was named the first-ever MLS Sporting Executive of the Year by his peers in 2018. Vermes has coached 461 total games during his Kansas City coaching career, most in club history.

On top of his club success in Kansas City, Zavagnin also appeared 21 times for the United States Men’s National Team. He recorded one assist for the U.S., who went 15-2-4 when Zavagnin featured. He married his wife Mirriam prior to the 2009 season, when he became an assistant coach at the club.

With over 13 years of service at Sporting KC, Vermes is one of the longest serving managers in world soccer. Among all 18 leagues with an average attendance of 10,000+, Vermes ranks second, only behind 2. Bundesliga side FC Heidenheim’s Frank Schmidt (Sept. 17, 2007 – present). Among the top 51 leagues in the world as denoted by the CIES Football Observatory, Vermes’ tenure at Sporting KC ranks as the eighth longest active run.

Assistant Coach | Zoran Savic Assistant Coach Zoran Savic joined Sporting Kansas City late in the 2009 season after a 30-year career at all levels of the game in the United States. A native of Gornji Milanovac, Yugoslavia, Savic began his journey through American soccer with the Buffalo Stallions of the Major Indoor Soccer League in 1980. Savic would go on to star for several MISL teams, with his most prosperous period coming with the Kansas City Comets, with whom he scored 70 goals in just over 100 appearances from 1982-1984.

Vermes oversees all soccer operations for Sporting KC, including the active roster, Sporting Kansas City II (USL Championship) and the Sporting KC Academy. Vermes entered MLS ahead of its inaugural season in 1996 and retired from the league in 2002, closing out his playing career in Kansas City after stints with the New York/New Jersey MetroStars and Colorado Rapids.

After retiring as a player in 1991, Savic turned his attention to coaching in the indoor game. Savic led the Kansas City Attack from 1992-1996, winning Coach of the Year honors for the 1994-1995 season while also serving as the team’s General Manager. Savic later coached the Kansas City Comets from 2000-2005.

Following a standout high school career in which he was named New Jersey Player of the Year, Vermes was a star forward and All-American at Rutgers University. After college, Vermes represented the United States in the 1988 Olympics in Seoul, Korea, and was named 1988 Chevrolet U.S. Male Soccer Athlete of the Year for his efforts.

In 2007 Savic switched to the outdoor game, joining Chivas USA as an assistant to then-head coach Preki before moving into the commentary booth for Kansas City matches in 2008 and 2009. Savic’s career as a commentator was cut short, however, when newly installed Manager Peter Vermes tabbed Savic to be part of his coaching staff late in the 2009 season.

Vermes was an integral part of a young U.S. team at the 1990 World Cup in Italy, where he nearly scored against the host Azzurri. It was the first time the U.S. had qualified for the World Cup in 40 years and set the stage for the progress of the U.S. National Team. In 1989 and 1990, Vermes became the first American to play in the Hungarian and Dutch First Divisions, playing for Raba ETO and FC Volendam, respectively. He later spent five years with Figueres of the Spanish Second Division.

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

For MLS’s inaugural season in 1996, Vermes served as captain of the New York/New Jersey MetroStars. In 1997, he was traded to the Colorado Rapids for current Sporting KC Assistant Coach Kerry Zavagnin and played in Denver through the 1999 season, leading the Rapids to the 1997 MLS Cup Final. Vermes joined Kansas City in 2000 for what would be the most successful season of his MLS career. During his first year in Kansas City, he anchored one of the best defenses in league history and won MLS Defender of the Year honors in helping lead the Wizards to the 2000 MLS Cup Championship. He retired in 2002 after appearing in 209 MLS matches (including playoffs) and playing more than 18,000 minutes. In 2013, Vermes was inducted into the National Soccer Hall of Fame. Year

A former MLS player, Dufty began his playing career with the New York Red Bulls in 2009, making 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. 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.

Harris was the 13th Homegrown Player to emerge from the Sporting Academy. He made his MLS debut on May 12, 2021 in a narrow loss at Houston Dynamo FC before earning his first start on July 21, 2021 at home vs. San Jose. Harris became the youngest USL Championship player to eclipse 20 career goals in 2020. In three USL Championship seasons with Sporting II, Harris has started 39 of 56 appearances and averaged 0.64 goals per 90 minutes played. The forward bagged a team-leading eight goals under head coach and longtime Sporting midfielder Paulo Nagamura in 2020 while playing in every game of the abbreviated 16-game season.

Harris was the top-scoring teenager in American professional soccer in 2019, finishing the year with 12 goals in 25 USL Championship appearances. His dozen goals - which included a run of 10 strikes in his final 11 appearances - equaled the league’s singleseason record for a teenager.

Sporting Kansas City signed French center back Nicolas Isimat-Mirin ahead of the 2021 MLS season. Isimat has played over 250 professional matches since 2010, featuring in the top divisions of France, the Netherlands and Turkey. He has logged 93 appearances each in France’s Ligue 1 and the Dutch Eredivisie, where he won three league titles as an integral member of PSV Eindhoven. Born in the Paris suburb of Meudon, Isimat competed in the famous Clairefontaine youth academy from 2004-2007 before continuing his development at Rennes and Valenciennes. He began his professional career as an 18-year-old in 2010 and spent the next three seasons as a regular starter for Valenciennes. Isimat-Mirin landed a transfer to French title contender Monaco, where he played 11 matches for the club in all competitions during the 2013-14 season.

In 2014, Isimat was loaned from Monaco to PSV Eindhoven. In his first Eredivisie season, he helped PSV win the league title by a 17-point margin, leading to PSV acquiring the defender on a permanent transfer ahead of the 2015-16 campaign. He appeared in 26 matches as PSV captured another Eredivisie title. Isimat and PSV won their third title in four years in 2017-2018. In early 2019, Isimat joined Besiktas in Turkey, starting 14 matches during the latter half of the season. For the 2019-20 campaign, the defender was loaned back to Ligue 1 for a stint with Toulouse, making 16 starts. Isimat represented France as a U-20 and U-21 youth international and notably featured during 2013 UEFA European U-21 Championship qualifying. He struck a center back partnership alongside future World Cup winner Raphael Varane as France finished atop their qualifying group.

Sporting Kansas City announced in January 2020 that the club had acquired central midfielder Gadi Kinda on a one-year loan from Israeli Premier League side Beitar Jerusalem. Sporting made the loan move permanent ahead of the 2021 season. Kinda has played over 200 matches in Israel since turning professional in 2011 at age 17. He starred as one of the Israeli Premier League’s best players during the first half of the 2019-20 season.

He became a regular starter for Ashdod during the 2013-2014 campaign, notably scoring his first top-fight goal in a 3-2 defeat of Israeli giants Maccabi Haifa in September 2013. Ashdod spent the 2015-16 season in Israel’s second division, but a strong bounce-back culminated with a Liga Leumit title as Kinda earned 27 appearances and helped his team finish atop the standings. Ashdod’s promotion saw Kinda tally seven goals and seven assists over the next two and a half seasons before his transfer to Beitar Jerusalem.

Born in Ethiopia and raised in Israel, Kinda joined Beitar Jerusalem in February 2019 and started 30 of 31 appearances in all competitions. Kinda spent the first seven and a half years of his professional career at FC Ashdod. He developed as a youth in his hometown club’s academy prior to landing an top-flight debut in September 2011 as a 17-year-old.

Kinda has two caps for the senior Israeli National Team, making his debut on June 5, 2021 when he scored the final goal in a 3-1 friendly win over Montenegro. He previously represented Israel at the U-18, U-19 and U-21 levels.

GIO’S MLS IS BACK TOURNAMENT RECORD WITH PORTLAND

HEAD COACH GIOVANNI SAVARESE Giovanni Savarese is in his fourth season as head coach of the Timbers, and is the only manager during the club’s MLS-era to guide Portland to the MLS Cup Playoffs in each of his first three seasons at the helm. In his first season with the club, Giovanni Savarese led the Timbers to 15 regular-season wins in 2018, tied for the third-most victories for a first-year head coach in MLS history. Under Savarese’s guidance, the Timbers won their second Western Conference Championship and advanced to their second MLS Cup in 2018. Registering 18 wins overall including an impressive playoff run, Savarese became one of three head coaches since 2000 to register 18 or more wins, including playoffs, in their first year as a head coach in the league. He also became just the second head coach in the last 14 seasons to advance to MLS Cup in his first year in MLS. During the 2020 campaign, Savarese led the Timbers to 14-6-8 record across all competitions, including coaching the TImbers to a 2-1 win over Orlando City SC in the MLS is Back Tournament in Orlando, Fla., on Aug. 11, 2020. Notably, the match was Savarese’s sixth final in eight years as a professional manager and his second final (2018, 2020) in three seasons with Portland. Appointed as the Timbers’ head coach on Dec. 18, 2017, Savarese brings over 25 years of professional experience as a player and coach to the Timbers organization. A native of Caracas, Venezuela, Savarese joined the Timbers after spending the previous five seasons as the head coach and sporting director of the New York Cosmos, where he developed one of the most successful clubs in the NASL, compiling a 65-2644 record in 135 regular-season games, including a career-best 20-7-5 record in 2016 and an undefeated NASL Spring Season in 2015. Additionally, the Cosmos scored 223 goals during Savarese’s five seasons at the helm, which rank as the most in the NASL during that stretch. Savarese also led the Cosmos to four Soccer Bowl appearances, claiming the 2013, 2015 and 2016 championships. Most recently, after a 10-7-15 record in the 2017 regular season, Savarese guided the Cosmos to their third straight appearance in the NASL championship match, narrowly falling 2-0 to the San Francisco Deltas. Prior to joining the Cosmos organization, Savarese, who holds a U.S. Soccer Pro License – the highest soccer license recognized in North America and the peak of the U.S. Soccer coaching education pathway, served as the head of youth development for the New York MetroStars/Red Bulls from 2005-2007, before joining the Cosmos as the club’s academy director in 2010, with a focus on developing youth talent in the greater New York area. Savarese served as the Cosmos academy director for two years before being announced as the head coach of the first Cosmos team in 28 years on November 19, 2012. Savarese enjoyed an 18-year professional playing career, including five seasons in Major League Soccer, scoring 159 goals in 322 games played in various leagues in the United States, Venezuela, Italy and England. At the international level, Savarese earned 30 caps for the Venezuela National Team from 1989-2001, scoring 10 goals, including a notable finish against South American rival Argentina in 1996. Giovanni and his wife, Michelle, have two daughters, Valentina and Alessandra.

NOTABLE QUOTES Portland Timbers head coach Gio Savarese General thoughts on the match… “So first of all, I have to start by saying thank you to the fans. To the Timber’s Army, everyone that was in the stadium today supporting us — you were amazing. You were amazing. You brought the energy to a high level. You supported us in an amazing way. Felt back again like the real Seattle-Portland game. The game that you always want to be a part of. The game you always want to participate and with the energy from our fans that was amazing. So for that reason, it is tough to be able to see a result like this in a game against Seattle. Definitely hurts because it is a rival and in our home, to lose 6-2 is probably indescribable to be able to explain the feeling that you have. For my part, I’m sorry because you showed up today. Thank you so much to all of you that were here today. It’s very unfortunate because we started very well. We started the game the way we wanted. We did so many great things. We were able to be dominant in so many ways in the first half. When we came back in the second half — in the beginning — we came back very strong. We were able to tie 2-2. Then we gave up the lead and we gave up some goals that were spectacular from [Seattle’s] part. Some others were our fault. So it’s difficult because when you play so well the way we did the first half and part of the second half and then you see the score, it’s not good enough. It has to be much better. It has to be much better from every player. It has to be much better from every staff member. It has to be better from everyone, starting with me. We came here with the right ideas and we played those ideas and we executed the plan that we came here to do and it worked. We were better than Seattle the first half. We were better than Seattle coming into the second half. But it’s not only better that’s going to get you results. It’s being more aggressive in the moments when you have the opportunities to score and capitalize on those moments. [Seattle] did. They found the way, even in those moments when they didn’t have something, they created something out of nothing. It’s a credit to them. It’s credit to how much they put into the game, but it hurts more because of the reason. Because of the way we played because we played very well and this game should have been different. “
