#SKCvCHI: BY THE NUMBERS

Sporting Kansas City returns home this weekend to take on their final Eastern Conference foe of the 2021 season - Chicago Fire FC - at Children’s Mercy Park on Saturday night. Sporting is 1-0-1 against the East this year, earning a 2-1 road win over the New York Red Bulls and a 1-1 home draw with Orlando City SC in the opening two matches of the 2021 campaign back in April.

Sporting saw their six-game unbeaten run in MLS play come to a screeching halt last Friday as the side fell to LAFC 4-0 at Banc of California Stadium. Sporting (11-5-7, 40 pts.) remains two points out of first place in the West, trailing Seatte (42 pts.) and the Colorado Rapids (41 pts.).

Sporting has gone 6-1-2 in the last nine meetings with the Fire, and went 1-0-1 against the Illinois side in 2020 following a 1-0 victory at Children’s Mercy Park on Oct. 7 when a Winston Reid header was enough to clinch all three points, and a 2-2 draw at Solider Field on Oct. 17 where Sporting twice surrendered the lead after goals from Erik Hurtado and Gadi Kinda were cancelled out by strikes from Robert Beric and Djordje Mihailovic.

Chicago leads the all-time regular-season series by a commanding 26-18-12 margin, with Sporting KC going 13-8-9 at home. However, Sporting has not lost a home match against Chicago since a 1-0 setback on June 29, 2012 and are 6-0-2 in their eight matches at Children’s Mercy Park since.

Sporting KC Game Notes | September 11, 2021 vs. Chicago Fire FC | SportingKC.com/Game-Notes UNBEATEN RUN SNAPPED

SPORTING KANSAS CITY NEWS AND NOTES

MAURI MAKES SPORTING DEBUT

Third-place Sporting Kansas City (11-5-7, 40 pts.) returns home this weekend to take on Chicago Fire FC (6-11-5, 23 pts.) in the team’s final interconference match of the 2021 regular-season campaign. Chicago are currently 11th in the Eastern Conference but have seen their form pick up in recent weeks, winning three of their last five matches (3-2-0).

Newly signed Sporting Kansas City midfielder Jose Mauri made his debut for the club during last Friday’s 4-0 loss to Los Angeles FC at Banc of California Stadium. With Gadi Kinda on international duty and Felipe Hernandez away on personal leave, Sporting has been thin in the midfield which required Mauri to make his debut the same week he started training with the team.

Sporting saw their six-game unbeaten run in MLS play come to an end last Friday as the team suffered a 4-0 defeat at the hands of Los Angeles FC at Banc of California Stadium. Already down 1-0, Roger Espinoza was given his marching orders following a VAR review in the 58th minute, allowing LAFC to tack on three more goals while playing up a man for the final 32 minutes of the match.

In 68 minutes, Mauri completed 80 percent of his 45 passes, while he was tied with Alan Pulido for the team lead with an 87 percent pass completion on the opposition half. He also won 57 percent of his duels and led the team with two interceptions on the night.

Mauri signed with Sporting KC on August 5 after spending the last two seasons in his native Argentina with Club Atletico Talleres. The 25-year-old has previously represented Parma, AC Milan and Empoli in the Italian Serie A.

Not only did the loss snap Sporting’s six-game unbeaten run that spanned all of August, it also ended the club’s six-game road unbeaten run that began on July 4. Manager Peter Vermes men’ went a remarkable 4-0-2 over the course of six regular season away matches from July 4 to Aug. 21 before taking their first road loss in nearly 11 weeks on Friday night. That six-game run came to an end one shy of the club record which was achieved from late 2012 to early 2013.

Born and raised in Realico, Argentina, Mauri is of Italian descent and represented Italy at the U-16, U-17 and U-21 youth international levels. He featured in 2013 UEFA European Under-17 Championship qualifying and was later selected to Italy’s squad for 2017 UEFA European Under-21 Championship qualifying.

KINDA & SALLOI REPRESENT NATIONAL TEAMS

Sporting now returns to Kansas City for a three-game homestand as the team faces Chicago Fire FC (Sept. 11), Minnesota United FC (Sept. 15) and Seattle Sounders FC (Sept. 26) at Children’s Mercy Park over the next three matches. Sporting is 5-1-5 at home in 2021, but has not won in KC since June 26 - a run of four games (0-1-3).

DOUSING THE FIRE

Sporting Kansas City midfielder Gadi Kinda (Israel) and forward Daniel Salloi (Hungary) each represented their respective national teams in World Cup Qualifiers over the past FIFA break. Salloi appeared as a substitute in all three of Hungary’s matches, while Kinda came off the bench in Israel’s final game. Both players have returned to Kansas City and are available for selection on Saturday against Chicago Fire FC.

Sporting claimed the season series between the two sides in 2020, first earning a 1-0 victory at Children’s Mercy Park on Oct. 7 following Winston Reid’s second-half header.

Kinda was an unused substitute as Israel earned a 4-0 road victory over the Faroe Islands on Sept. 1 and an impressive 5-2 victory at home against Austria on Sept. 4, before appearing for the final 10 minutes in a 5-0 setback in Denmark on Sept. 7 in UEFA Group F of World Cup qualifying. Kinda now has three caps for the senior Israeli side, having made his debut in a 3-1 friendly win over Montenegro in June, coming off the bench and firing him the third Israel goal. He made his first start against powerhouse Portugal four days later.

The teams met once again 10 days later at Soldier Field, with the hosts twice coming back from a one-goal deficit to earn a 2-2 draw. Erik Hurtado’s opener was cancelled out by Robert Beric’s goal just before halftime that was awarded following a VAR review, before Gadi Kinda thought he had given Sporting all three points with a late header.

However, Chicago’s Djordje Mihailovic scored with essentially the last kick of the game to deny SKC all three points.

Salloi joined up with Hungary’s senior national team for the first time since 2018 as the Magyars played three World Cup qualifiers during the break. Salloi made his senior international debut as a substitute in the 4-0 home loss to England on Sept. 2, before also appearing off the bench in the second half in a 1-0 setback on the road at Albania on Sept. 5. Salloi earned the bulk of his minutes when he appeared as a halftime substitute as Hungary defeated Andorra 2-1 at home on Sept. 8.

Sporting trails Chicago in the all-time regular-season series 18-26-12, though the team does have a 13-8-9 mark in games played in KC and is currently riding a five-game home winning streak against the Fire.

MLS & CLUBS COMMEMORATE 20 YEARS SINCE 9/11

Sporting Kansas City is set to play host to Chicago Fire FC this Saturday night at Children’s Mercy Park and will look to get back to winning ways following a recent fourgame winless run (0-1-3). Sporting has won six of their last eight matches against the Fire (6-1-1) dating back to late in the 2014 campaign, while Chicago have failed to win at Children’s Mercy Park since June 29, 2012.

In observance of the 20-year mark since the tragedy in the United States on September 11, 2001, Major League Soccer and its clubs have come together to conduct acts of service to positively impact our communities and remember those lost in the attacks.

SPORTING AND MLS AIM TO KICK CHILDHOOD CANCER

There will be three special elements of the pre-match presentation at all MLS games played in the US this weekend. All team jerseys will feature a 20th remembrance patch, modeled on the one worn by clubs when MLS returned to action after the terrorist attacks in 2001. There will also be a moment of silence before each game, and the American flag will be displayed on the field ahead of the player procession and remain on the field until the end of the National Anthem.

MLS, MLS WORKS and Continental Tire are teaming up to support Childhood Cancer Awareness Month with the 8th annual “Kick Childhood Cancer” campaign to raise awareness of pediatric cancers and fundraise for childhood cancer research.

The KCC campaign will promote and benefit Children’s Oncology Group (COG) Foundation, the world’s largest organization devoted exclusively to childhood and adolescent cancer research, uniting more than 10,000 experts in childhood cancer at more than 200 leading children’s hospitals around the world. The Kick Childhood Cancer campaign has enabled COG to strengthen research efforts across the entire spectrum of pediatric cancers, including Project: EveryChild – a unique project aiming to capture the biology and outcome data of every child diagnosed with cancer.

As part of the efforts to reflect on this solemn day, MLS has made a donation and is recognizing September 11 as a National Day of Remembrance and Service. MLS is supporting 9/11 Day by organizing special volunteer service projects to combat hunger at an especially critical time as the COVID-19 pandemic continues. Volunteers will help pack dry, non-perishable meals to be donated to local Feeding America-affiliated food banks. MLS fans are also encouraged to join #MLSWeekofService by performing acts of service and sharing their good deeds on social media.

The cost of a single enrollment into a clinical trial such as Project: EveryChild can approach $10,000 per patient. According to COG, MLS’ Kick Childhood Cancer campaign has helped to offset the costs of more than 33,000 clinical trial enrollments to-date, with an expected 40,000 to be enrolled by the end of 2021.

To ensure that future generations understand the impact of 9/11, MLS is also encouraging the entire soccer community to visit Neverforget.org to post a tribute on the 9/11 Memorial & Museum’s Remembrance Wall, donate to the Never Forget Fund, and participate in “Remember the Sky” by using #NeverForget911 and posting pictures of the sky in honor of the clear blue sky from Sept. 11, 2001.

As part of this year’s campaign, MLS Clubs have created custom pajama bottoms to be distributed to local pediatric cancer patients as a token of comfort while they continue their journey in the fight against cancer. Continental Tire will also amplify campaign efforts with an inspirational Kick Childhood Cancer video series hosted by MLS player and childhood cancer survivor, Matt Lampson. The series will feature empowering stories from current and former patients, families, doctors, caretakers, and community members who aided children on their road to recovery.

POSTGAME PV

On the team’s play in the first half against LAFC: “I thought we could have been a lot faster with the ball. I think at times we were slow.

There’s different things. I would never put someone like Jose (Mauri) in his first game like that with such little time but right now we’re down so many players we had to. He actually did okay in the game. I think he has good ideas. He’s got a good understanding of the position. It’s just a shame the game had to be the way it was for many reasons. At the end, we didn’t have enough.”

Fans are encouraged to support the KCC campaign by tweeting inspirational messages with the hashtag #KickChildhoodCancer during the month of September. For every post featuring the #KickChildhoodCancer hashtag on Twitter from September 1-30, 2021, Continental Tire will donate $1 (up to a maximum of $50,000) to COG.

Sporting KC Game Notes | September 11, 2021 vs. Chicago Fire FC | 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 465 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.

Height: 5-7 Weight: 135 Birthday: 6/8/1998 Hometown: Nashville, Tennessee Last Club: Sporting Kansas City II (USL) Acquired: Signed as Homegrown on 8/30/2019 Sporting Kansas City signed Felipe Hernandez as a Homegrown Player in late August 2019, making him the 12th Homegrown Player in club history and one of 12 on the current roster, joining Cam Duke, Tyler Freeman, Jaylin Lindsey, Daniel Salloi, Wilson Harris, John Pulskamp, Ozzie Cisneros, Grayson Barber, Brooks Thompson, Kaveh Rad and Kayden Pierre.

Hernandez is the first Sporting player to progress from an Academy Affiliate club to the SKC Academy to Sporting KC II before signing with the senior team. His acquisition follows a breakout season in the USL Championship, where he started 24 of 26 appearances, scored a team-best eight goals and recorded four assists. In three seasons with SPR, Hernandez amassed 13 goals and 12 assists across 85 matches.

Born in Ibague, Colombia, Hernandez grew up in Nashville, Tennessee, and played for Sporting Nashville Heroes, a former Academy Affiliate. He moved to Kansas City in the summer of 2014 to join the Academy. At age 16, Hernandez earned a preseason training stint with Sporting KC in January 2015, before signing an Academy contract with Sporting KC II in August 2016, two months prior to earning Bob Gansler Academy Player of the Year honors that then led to a professional SKC II contract in early 2017.

On the international stage, Hernandez played for the U.S. U-19 National Team for the first time in August 2016 for the Stevan Vilotic-Cele Tournament in Serbia. The following April, he ventured to London for his first training camp with the U.S. U-20s.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Kinda has three 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.

match Notes GENERATION MLS NEXT The Chicago Fire FC U-19 Academy won the inaugural MLS Next Championship with a 1-0 victory against Solar SC on Saturday, July 3 at Toyota Stadium in Frisco, Texas. The Fire also took home the Golden Boot and Golden Ball for the tournament.

Missael Rodríguez scored the lone goal for the Fire in the 80th minute when Max Viera sent a ball high ball to the top of the six-yard box. Rodríguez had his back to the goal and flicked Viera’s pass behind him with his head. The Solar SC goalkeeper was caught off his line and Rodríguez’s header went over him and into the open net.

Led by head coach Ludovic Taillandier and assistant coach Patrick Nyarko, the Fire U-19 squad finished the tournament with a 5-0-0 record. The Fire scored 17 goals, conceding only four.

The Chicago Fire Academy last claimed a national title in 2015, when the U-17/18 team won the U.S. Soccer Development Academy national championship with a 3-1 victory over Real Salt Lake-Arizona.

The U-15/16 team previously captured the 2010 championship, the first in program history.

NEW FACES: HERE’S JHONNY! Espinoza made his MLS debut on April 24, coming in as a sub for forward Chinonso Offor in the 3-1 loss to Atlanta United FC. Since making his professional debut on Dec. 12, 2017, Espinoza has made 54 appearances (48 starts) across all competitions in Ecuador’s topflight. He began his career with C.D. Cuenca in 2017 and played five games (four starts) in two seasons with the Club. The defender made 49 appearances (44 starts) across all competitions with S.D. Aucas since 2018. Internationally, he has earned 15 caps for Ecuador’s U-20 side, including seven appearances in the 2019 U-20 FIFA World Cup, and two caps for the Ecuador National Team. In 2019, Espinoza captained Ecuador’s U-20 team to a first-place finish in the 2019 U-20 South American Championship.

NEW FACES: offor you can’t refuse Offor made his MLS debut on April 17, going 74 minutes in the Fire’s 2-2 tie with New England Revolution at Soldier Field. He joins the Fire after spending the past two-and-a-half seasons in the Latvian first division, where he notched 16 goals and seven assists in 40 games played across all competitions. He is under contract with the Fire through the 2023 season with a Club option for the 2024 season.

The striker originally began his professional career in 2019 with BFC Daugavpils. In two seasons with the Club, he scored 10 goals in 23 appearances (22 starts). Since signing with FK Rīgas Futbola Skola on July 19, Offor has scored six goals in 13 league appearances in 2020. He also made one appearance in the UEFA Europa League, featuring against Serbian powerhouse FK Partizan on Aug. 27.

NEW FACES: WE STAN Ivanov, who made his professional debut for Levski Sofia at 16, spent the first six seasons of his career in the Bulgarian first division, tallying 13 goals and 15 assists. He has made 85 appearances (54 starts) across all competitions for Levski Sofia, including five appearances (four starts) in the UEFA Europa League. The 2019-20 campaign marked a career-high in goals (nine), assists (five), games played (27) and starts (25) for the winger. At the international level, he has made 10 appearances (10 starts) for Bulgaria’s U-21 side during qualification for the UEFA European U-21 Championship. In those 10 appearances, Ivanov scored four goals, including a brace in a 3-0 win against Poland on Nov. 15, 2019.

BROADCAST DREAM TEAM Returning to the broadcast booth for a second season are play-byplay commentator Tyler Terens and color analyst and U.S. Soccer Hall of Famer Tony Meola. Play-by-play commentator Arlo White – whose Fire broadcast debut was postponed last year by the pandemic – joined the broadcast team for four consecutive games for the Fire.

The 2021 season marked White’s first campaign in the Fire broadcast booth. A native of Leicester, England, who grew up visiting Chicago, called Fire matches during the Premier League offseason.

He will call football matches for NBC Olympics during this summer’s Tokyo Games. He previously worked at the 2016 Rio and 2012 London Games.

The 2021 season marks Meola’s second campaign as a member of the Chicago Fire’s broadcast team. A native of Kearny, N.J., Meola served as one of the top two broadcast teams – on-site in Russia – for FOX Sports at the 2018 FIFA World Cup. Since 1990, Meola has served as a football broadcaster in various capacities.

Meola, the 2000 MLS Most Valuable Player and FIFA World Cup veteran – was inducted into the United States Soccer National Hall of Fame in May 2012.

The 2021 season marks Terens’ second campaign as a member of the Chicago Fire’s broadcast team. Terens came to the Fire after calling more than 500 football matches including Concacaf Champions League, Concacaf Gold Cup, Concacaf Nations League, Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup, USL and NCAA. He also spent two seasons as the voice of Phoenix Rising FC, covering all home and away matches as well as hosting Concacaf’s Scotiabank Concacaf Champions League Show.
