TFC haven’t lost to KC at home since 2007, when the then-Wizards came away with a 1-0 win in the first ever game at BMO Field on April 28.

Coaches record: Peter Vermes vs. TOR: P5 W3 L0 D2 … Paul Mariner v KC: P1 W0 L1 D0 LAST MATCH 6/16: KC 2, TOR 0 (Sapong 18; Julio César 35) Sporting took the lead after 18 minutes. Chance Myers sent a ball down the right flank to Jacob Peterson on the overlap. Peterson's cross slipped through two TFC defenders in the area, and C.J. Sapong pounced to hammer home on the half-turn from the center of the box. SKC doubled their lead in the 35th minute. Graham Zusi sent in a corner kick from the left and Julio Cesar ripped it first-time from just outside the top right corner of the six-yard box into the roof of the net. SPORTING KANSAS CITY (4-2-1-3): Jimmy Nielsen - Chance Myers, Lawrence Olum, Aurelien Collin, Seth Sinovic - Julio Cesar, Roger Espinoza (Peterson Joseph 89) - Graham Zusi (Konrad Warzycha 90) - Jacob Peterson (Soony Saad 73), Teal Bunbury, C.J.

TFC is in 10th place in the Eastern Conference, with 20 points from 23 games.
MLS GAME INFORMATION
LAST MATCH The Timbers took the lead in the 21st minute off a corner kick. David Horst got his head to Steven Smith’s corner, but Eric Avila was on the line to block the ball. But the TFC midfielder could do nothing about the rebound, which was knocked home by an unmarked Sal Zizzo. The home side pulled in the 57th minute when Eric Hassli pounded a rebound high into the net after Portland goalkeeper Donovan Ricketts had saved from Silva, his shot coming off a free kick headed further goalward. Toronto then went into the lead six minutes later. Ashtone Morgan worked the ball deep into Portland territory before putting a cross in front that was flicked with a header by Hassli to Silva, who put the ball home at the back post. But there was one more twist in the tale. An incisive passing movement tore apart the Toronto defense and Smith raced in alone at goal before chipping the ball across the face of goal for Darlington Nagbe to head home and save a point for Portland. TFC head coach Paul Mariner made four changes to the team that fell 2-1 to the Chicago Fire at Toyota Park. Ty Harden and Adrian Cann came into the back four, and Aaron Maund and Eric Avila started in midfield, in place of the suspended Logan Emory, and Doneil Henry, Terry Dunfield and Ryan Johnson, all on international duty. TORONTO FC (4-4-2): Milos Kocic - Richard Eckersley, Ty Harden, Adrian Cann, Ashtone Morgan - Reggie Lambe (Andrew Wiedeman 46), Aaron Maund, Torsten Frings, Eric Avila (Quincy Amarikwa 59) - Luis Silva, Eric Hassli (Keith Makubuya 80). TEAM NEWS The opening goal was the seventh Toronto FC have conceded from a corner kick this season, the most in Major League Soccer. “You’ve got to execute,” Mariner said. “You look at the setups, every single team in the world sets up slightly differently but the one thing you’ve got to do, you’ve got have that desire inside you that that ball is not going to be won by one of the opposition. Clearly, it can’t happen and if it does then you have to react and get it out of your box. And it’s something we’re having difficulty dealing with. The delivery was good but it’s disappointing and it’s not as if we don’t work on it.” Said defender Richard Eckersley: “I think we are all disappointed. We’ve come to expect a standard and we let that standard slip, especially giving away another set piece, is lazy in a way.” With Ryan Johnson away on international duty, Luis Silva again moved forward to pair with Eric Hassli in attack. “Totally different players as you can see in stature but when you look at the feet that Eric has gotten and the feet of Luis, they’ve got beautiful touch on the ball,” said Mariner. “Eric is such a strong guy, he holds people off, he keeps the team playing and if we can get a rapport going with Ryan Johnson and Eric or Luis and Eric or combinations of those people then you start to get something going. Then you can start to read that when the ball goes in to Eric you know it’s going to stick so you can make runs and it can make an enormous difference in the way you set up and the way that you play.” Said Hassli: “He is skilled, he runs a lot, his movement is really good. I think he is the best young guy in this league. For me it is really great to play with a guy like that, I’m really happy.” Richard Eckersley returned to right back from central defense with the changes in the team, as Adrian Cann and Ty Harden returned from long absences back into the team. For Cann, it was his first appearance since June 16, an 11-match absence. The span was even longer for Harden: his last outing was April 7, the fourth game of the season. “I think if you analyze the back four, Ty and Adrian haven’t played for, I don’t know how long,” said Mariner. “Anybody who has played the game knows full well that you can train your backside off but as soon as, Adrian knows better than anybody, that whistle goes the tempo is totally different, the level is different, the whole energy is different.” There was an injury concern out of the match as Reggie Lambe was forced off at halftime. “The early diagnosis is that he has strained his ligament, which as you know is not good,” said Mariner. SPORTING KANSAS CITY Sporting Kansas City made it two wins in as many games, defeating D.C. United 2-1 on Saturday evening at Livestrong Sporting Park. Sporting moved back into first place in the Eastern Conference, with 43 points from 24 matches. LAST MATCH Sporting took the lead just 13 minutes into the match. A corner kick from Graham Zusi found Teal Bunbury just outside the 6-yard box, and Bunbury snapped the header home. United answered just 10 minutes later, though, after a determined run and deft pass from Andy Najar. He drove down the right side, then into the middle, and lofted the ball to Nick DeLeon in the penalty area, who controlled the ball and poked it past KC goalkeeper Jimmy Nielsen.
MLS GAME INFORMATION
After Zusi was twice denied by the woodwork, game-winner came in the 63rd minute. Kei Kamara’s cross from the left side sailed past Bunbury in front of goal, and Zusi was there to clean up, running onto the ball and driving the ball between goalkeeper Bill Hamid's legs. Sporting head coach Peter Vermes made four changes to the team that defeated the New England Revolution 1-0 at Gillette Stadium. Aurelien Collin and Neven Markovic came into the back four for Lawrence Olum and Seth Sinovic, and Roger Espinoza and Michael Thomas started in midfield for Julio Cesar and Bobby Convey. SPORTING KANSAS CITY (4-2-3-1): Jimmy Nielsen - Michael Harrington, Aurelien Collin, Matt Besler, Neven Markovic - Paulo Nagamura (Julio Cesar 88), Michael Thomas (C.J. Sapong 84) - Graham Zusi, Roger Espinoza (Oriol Rosell 90), Kei Kamara - Teal Bunbury. TEAM NEWS Sporting have won back-to-back games for the first time since May 27-June 16, after wins vs. New England and D.C. United. “The season is very long in MLS, and sometimes it happens that you can ride away for a while, you can fall off the wave, but the big thing is how fast you get back on again,” said SKC manager Peter Vermes. “I think that, if anything, we never lost any confidence in ourselves. It's just that sometimes things happen, the great thing is that we've figured it out, we've grinded out some results along the way. Even though we've lost here or there, we came back and got back into the form a little bit.” Graham Zusi recorded his second assist in three games. He is now second in MLS with 10 assists. For the second time, he scored a goal and recorded an assist in the same match (also: March 17 vs. New England). Teal Bunbury scored his second goal in as many games, and has three goals in the last six games. He has played the full 90 minutes now in back-to-back matches, his first since the start of July. “Zusi tries to whip it in near post and I'm always the one usually who tries to make the first post run. I was just trying to lose my guy and it's pretty rare when I score with my head, so I was pretty happy about that. It's my job to put balls in the back of the net,” said Bunbury. Aurélien Collin returned to the lineup after missing two matches, after suffering a facial fracture in the MLS AllStar Game vs. Chelsea. Collin started the D.C. match wearing a protective mask, but discarded it early on in the first half. “One big part of my game is the header,” said Collin. “I was making a header, and I wanted it to come off the front, but it was going off to the side. A basketball player can play with it. A soccer player, we can’t -- especially a defender, like I am. We head the ball so much, and it hurts when you head the ball.” “He was a little out of rhythm to start out with, but then he started to get into it more,” Vermes said. “One area where he was really good was set pieces. Very good for us. We’ve missed that. He’s very good on attacking set pieces, and it’s a lot for guys to handle. I thought in the end, he and (Matt) Besler were very good in the back.” Neven Markovic made his first MLS start, playing the entire match at left back. He had made his MLS debut July 28 with a late substitute appearance vs. Columbus. “The team is in front of everything: my playing, Collin’s playing, anybody’s playing. That’s the most important thing,” Markovic said. “… I can play on the right side, left side, front, back. I don’t care. I just need matches. That’s the most important thing. “I think he still needs to find his rhythm within the way we play, but athletically up and down the sideline, he’s hard, he’s connected to the game, he’s never going to walk off that field and give you less than 100 percent,” Vermes said. “So that’s a big step into this team, because all of our guys, when they’re out there, they play and give it their all. So for him to come out and give the performance that he did tonight is a great effort for sure.” Bobby Convey was again unavailable after starting and lasting just seven minutes the weekend before, his third consecutive start. Convey had missed eight consecutive matches before returning to action. “He’s fighting it a little bit from the frustration perspective,” Vermes said. “I know what it’s like, when I see players like that who want to be out there but just can’t get over the hump. That’s what he really needs. It seems like he just got over the calf thing, and it’s one thing after another. But we’ll get it right, and he’ll be back in at some point.”

TORONTO FC NEWS AND NOTES
TORONTO FC‐COLUMBUS CREW GAME POSTPONED The match between Toronto FC and Columbus Crew originally slated for Saturday August 11 has been changed to Wednesday, August 22 at 7:30 p.m. The change was made in order for Crew players to attend the funeral of teammate Kirk Urso, who passed away on Sunday, August 5. TORONTO FC SIGN IRISH INTERNATIONAL O’DEA Toronto FC announced Friday that the club has signed Irish international defender Darren O’Dea. As per team and league policies terms of the deal were not disclosed. O’Dea will be added to Toronto’s roster and eligible for selection upon receipt of his International Transfer Certificate. “Darren addresses our need for an experienced, no nonsense central defender,” said Toronto FC Head Coach and Director of Soccer Operations Paul Mariner. “Darren has great leadership abilities and his experience, both for club and country, will be a welcomed addition to our club and for our young players. We are so pleased to bring him to Toronto.” O’Dea, 25, began his youth career with Glasgow Celtic F.C. (Celtic). He made his first team debut for Celtic in September 2006 and went on to make 49 appearances during his time with the Scottish club. At Celtic, O’Dea won the Scottish Premier League twice (’06‐’07 and ’07‐’08) along with the Scottish Cup in 2008 and the Scottish League Cup in 2009. During his six seasons at Celtic, O’Dea went on three different loan spells with English clubs: Reading (’09), Ipswich Town (’10‐’11), and Leeds United (’11‐’12). O’Dea has earned 14 caps for the Irish National Team, and was most recently included in Ireland’s UEFA EURO 2012 squad. He earned his first cap for Ireland coming on as a substitute during a friendly against South Africa in September 2009. O’Dea was recently given the 2012 Ireland Young International Player of the Year award during the FAI International Football Awards in February.

Sporting Kansas City News, Notes and headlines RESULTS | Sporting Kansas City currently sits in first place of the Eastern Conference with a record of 13-7-4 (43 points). The team had a historic start to 2012, garnering seven straight wins to begin the season. However, Kansas City experienced a slight decrease in their momentum losing three games in a row before earning a draw against Western Conference foe Colorado Rapids at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park.
through Brad Evans’ shot to his left.
The momentum was back in Kansas City’s favor as the team won two Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup games against Orlando City SC and Colorado Rapids and added two MLS victories against the San Jose Earthquakes and Toronto FC. Sporting KC then went on the road and earned a tie at CenturyLink Field against Western Conference foe Seattle Sounders.
Alonso and Zusi both sent their shots over the crossbar in back-to-back attempts, and Nielsen made a superb save to his left to deny Christian Tiffert to send it to the fifth and final penalty kick with it all to be decided.
Sporting KC experienced a second short slump in MLS play, suffering a 4-0 defeat to the Philadelphia Union at PPL Park followed by a 1-0 loss to rival Chicago Fire at LIVESTRONG Sporting Park. However, in between the two MLS matches, Sporting Kansas City hosted the Dayton Dutch Lions in Open Cup competition, in which they earned a 3-0 victory to send them to the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup semi-finals. Sporting Kansas City got back on track in MLS competition in July when they beat Montreal 3-1 at Saputo Stadium followed by 0-0 home draw with the Houston Dynamo. Sporting KC then went on the road earning a 2-0 victory over the Columbus Crew moving them back up the standings and into sole possession of first place among Eastern Conference rivals before dropping a 2-1 decision against Houston in their first ever match at BBVA Compass Stadium.
Gspurning gave his team the advantage with a stop on Espinoza and Seattle momentarily led following Marc Burch’s blast down the middle. Besler pulled Sporting KC back level with a shot off the underside of the crossbar and into the back of the net.
Nagamura’s initial attempt was saved by Gspurning, but he was ruled to have come off his line early and the Brazilian calmly converted the ensuing second chance to his left to put Sporting KC ahead in dramatic fashion. Johnson walked to the spot with LIVESTRONG Sporting Park in a frenzy, needing to score to keep Seattle alive. Back in Kansas City for the first time since he played with the then-Wizards in 2007, Johnson’s shot sailed over the crossbar and brought an end to the shootout with Seattle’s third straight miss from the mark. Prior to the shootout loss, the Sounders have won an unprecedented three straight U.S. Open Cups, and had not lost in the competition since August 12, 2008, when they were still a United Soccer League franchise.
Sporting Kansas City returned back to LSP to face the New England Revolution in the first of four consecutive home matches in all-competition. The match resulted in a scoreless draw. Sporting KC then fell to Montpellier Herault SC 3-0 in their first of two international friendlies before losing to Eastern Conference foe Columbus 2-1 despite outshooting the Crew 25-12.
Sporting’s journey to the 2012 final began on May 29 with a 3-2 home victory over USL Pro Division side Orlando City in the Round of 32. A week later, Sporting defeated fellow MLS club Colorado Rapids, 2-0, to advance to the cup quarterfinals for the second straight season. A comprehensive 3-0 win over USL Pro’s Dayton Dutch Lions on June 26 booked Sporting’s spot in the semifinals at Philadelphia. Sporting then earned the 2-0 victory on the road at the Philadelphia Union on July 11.
Sporting Kansas City then went on to draw 1-1 with EPL side Stoke City FC with a late equalizer in second half stoppage time. After the friendly, Sporting KC earned the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup title after defeating the Seattle Sounders FC in a shootout at LIVESTRONG Sporting Park.

In their most recent MLS match, Sporting Kansas City hosted D.C. United and earned a 2-1 victory at LSP.
The call-up was Besler’s first time wearing his country’s kit and marked Zusi’s third appearance playing for his country. Zusi entered the match in the 60th minute for the US and helped beat Mexico 1-0 at Estadio Azteca, something Americans have not been able to do in 24 previous attempts playing on Mexican soil.
LAMAR HUNT U.S. OPEN CUP CHAMPIONS | Sporting Kansas City was crowned the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup Champions for the first time since 2004 after beating the Seattle Sounders FC at LIVESTRONG Sporting Park 3-2 in penalty kicks after a 1-1 draw in regulation. Sporting KC took the lead on a Kei Kamara penalty kick in the 84th minute after a hand ball by Zach Scott. The goal marked Kamara’s second goal in U.S. Open Cup competition since joining Kansas City.
