Chivas saw their winless streak extended to nine matches in their last game, a 3-0 loss at the Columbus Crew last Sunday afternoon.

Chivas USA sit in ninth place in the Western Conference with 24 points from 27 games. LAST MATCH  The Crew were given a glorious opportunity in the 45th minute when forward Aaron Schoenfeld was tripped up by Eriq Zavaleta in the box on a corner kick. Referee Geoff Gamble awarded the penalty kick, but Federico Higuain slammed the shot into the bar for his third penalty miss of the season.  The Crew finally broke through seven minutes into the second half. Justin Meram collected the ball on the left side, just outside the box, cut inside onto his favored right foot and curled a feathery shot around a defender and past Chivas USA 'keeper Dan Kennedy.  Less than ten minutes later, Meram put the match away with another blast into the corner. He scooped up a loose ball in the middle of the field to go one-on-one with Kennedy and left no doubt, cooly slotting a rightfooted shot into the corner of the Chivas USA goal.  The Crew added an insurance goal in the 80th minute, when substitute Hector Jimenez found another substitute in Bernardo Anor with a perfectly placed cross that Anor headed home.  Chivas USA head coach Wilmer Cabrera made three changes to the team that fell 4-2 to Seattle Sounders FC at StubHub Center. Eriq Zavaleta and Andrew Jean-Baptiste came back into central defense for Jhon Kennedy Hurtado and Bobby Burling, and Agustin Pelletieri started in midfield for Oswaldo Minda.  CHIVAS USA (4-4-2): Dan Kennedy - Akira Kaji, Eriq Zavaleta, Andrew Jean-Baptiste, Tony Lochhead - Marky Delgado, Agustin Pelletieri (Nathan Sturgis 76), Nigel Reo-Coker, Eric Avila (Luis Bolanos 63) - Felix Borja, Ryan Finley (Marvin Chavez 53).

MLS GAME INFORMATION

TEAM NEWS  The defeat in Columbus extended the Chivas USA winless streak to nine games, matching the longest in MLS this season, and Chivas USA’s longest since a 13-game without a victory last season. It is the fourth-longest winless run in club history.  “We knew that it was going to be a tough game for us after the third game in one week ... I think the guys, suffered in the second half. The first half as tough, we played even, we controlled the attacking from the Crew very well, but in the second half we had guys running around, we paid the price and we gave them too much of a threat,” said Chivas USA head coach Wilmer Cabrera. “We tried to take risks and when you try to take risks, you have to be able to deal with crisis in the back and we didn’t have very good answers in terms of attack.”  It was also Chivas USA’s seventh attacking shutout in the last eight games, and their 11th offensive shutout of the season. The MLS record is 17 shutouts in a year, set by D.C. United in 2010.  “I think in the first half we really had good shape and gave ourselves a real chance and we got on the ball and had some composure,” said goalkeeper Dan Kennedy. “Unfortunately, you know we gave up that first goal and then we were chasing the game. When you chase a game, you kind of leave yourselves a little exposed and we gave up another couple of goals. ... Unfortunately for us, if we could’ve just kept that first goal out you never know what could’ve happened.”  Chivas USA conceded three or more goals for a third consecutive match, with 10 goals allowed over that span. Chivas USA have allowed three or more goals on nine occasions this season; they have allowed the third-most goals in MLS this season (47, one less than Houston and Montréal entering the week).  “We have to be more consistent with our defending. We gave up two goals in the same way. In the second half, we lost the ball in transition; we lost the ball in the middle. For the two goals that came outside of the box, we have to step up better we have to do a better job in that aspect because that is something that cannot happen,” said Cabrera. “The same player scored the same type of goals in less than 10 minutes. Obviously, if we want to get a result at home, we have to be a threat. We have to have better ideas and have to have a better mentality. The possession has to happen for this.”  Ryan Finley started for a second consecutive match, alongside Felix Borja in the Chivas USA. Erick Torres will be suspended for both the Sporting KC match and the Toronto FC game on Sept. 21, serving his two-match suspension following his return from the Mexican national team.  “Hopefully, we can keep possession a little bit better [vs. Sporting KC] and be able to create some more opportunities,” said Ryan Finley. “I thought we were pretty solid at the back in the first half, it’s just kind of the mistakes of us losing the ball in bad spots and them taking advantage of it.”  Eriq Zavaleta returned to the Chivas USA backline for the first time since Aug. 9, playing the full 90 minutes in central defense. SPORTING KANSAS CITY Sporting Kansas City had their losing slide extended to four matches, completing an Eastern road swing with a 2-1 loss to the New York Red Bulls on Saturday evening at Red Bull Arena. Sporting are in second place in the Eastern Conference with 42 points from 27 games. LAST MATCH  The Red Bulls took an early lead, after Sporting center back Matt Besler clipped Bradley Wright-Phillips with a sliding tackle, and referee Hilario Grajeda pointed to the spot. Wright-Phillips scored his league-leading 21st goal, firing an unstoppable shot to the left past goalkeeper Andy Gruenebaum for an 11th-minute lead.  The Red Bulls doubled the margin seven minutes into the second half. Taking a pass just outside the area on the left, Henry took advantage of some space at the top of the penalty area and thundered a shot into the far top corner past the full-stretch dive of Gruenebaum.  Sporting pulled a goal two minutes later when Seth Sinovic whipped a ball in from the right flank that found Graham Zusi, who headed the ball across goal for Dwyer to scissor-kick home with an impressive side volley.  Sporting manager Peter Vermes made five changes to the team that suffered a 3-1 loss to the New England Revolution at Gillette Stadium. Aurelien Collin came back into central defense, Paulo Nagamura and Benny Feilhaber started in midfield, and Antonio Dovale and Dom Dwyer came in up top, with Jorge Claros, Mikey Lopez, C.J. Sapong, Soony Saad and Claudio Bieler all out of the team.  SPORTING KANSAS CITY (4-1-2-3): Andy Gruenebaum - Igor Juliao, Aurelien Collin, Matt Besler, Seth Sinovic - Lawrence Olum (Jorge Claros 70) - Paulo Nagamura (C.J. Sapong 85), Benny Feilhaber - Antonio Dovale (Sal Zizzo 58), Dom Dwyer, Graham Zusi. TEAM NEWS  Sporting Kansas City lost their fourth consecutive game in the defeat at New York – their longest losing streak since Aug. 1-29, 2009. It was also a third consecutive defeat away from home.  “You’ve got to understand that the whole season we’ve been in first or second place, the whole entire season with massive amounts of injuries, guys away on international duty, we’ve kept ourselves in the mix. In this league, you always run into a rough patch somewhere,” said SKC manager Peter Vermes. “The question is

when do you come out of it and when you do, how is your upswing? I have all the confidence in the world [with] where we’re at. I really do.” Sporting allowed multiple goals in a game for the fourth consecutive contest. They had allowed more than one goal in a game just once in the previous 12 league matches, dating back to May 23. “We've always taken pride in defending,” Vermes said. “It's not just one guy. It's every guy on every roll of the ball. From that perspective, that's always going to be high on our priority list every time we step inside the white lines. [Saturday], it wasn't really pride – it was more of a situation where we got back to playing the way we do.” Dom Dwyer equaled the Kansas City club record with his 18th goal of the season, his second in the last three games. He matched the mark set by Preki 19 years ago, in the club’s inaugural season of 1996 when they were known as the Kansas City Wiz. Graham Zusi recorded his second assist in the last five matches, now with six assists on the year. He has two goals and two assists since his return from the FIFA World Cup. “We actually made a good step in the right direction. We played real well. We played more like us than we have in the past. We’ve had a couple performances prior to this that weren’t good at all and there [was] a lot of things that weren’t good about it but tonight we played more like us,” Vermes said. “I think we drove the game. We outshot them, 17-5, and every category we [had] more, except the two goals. We created [a lot] of chances. From that perspective, it was very good.” After being dropped from the team for the New England match, Aurelien Collin returned to central defense alongside Matt Besler, who played despite having a broken bone in his right hand suffered in the New England match. Paulo Nagamura made his first appearance since July 6, having missed the last 10 league matches through injury. Nagamura played 85 minutes in his usual midfield role. Antonio Dovale made his first start since Aug. 1, coming into a wide attacking role and playing 58 minutes. He had made one substitute appearance, totaling 11 minutes, over the previous five matches.

Chivas USA vs. Sporting KC – MLS Week 27

Friday, Sept. 12, 2014 – StubHub Center; Carson, Calif. – 7:30 p.m. (PT)

Local TV: Time Warner Cable Deportes / Local Radio: ESPN Deportes Radio KWKU 1220 AM

Red-and-White Battle Reigning Champs Chivas USA return home to face defending MLS champ Sporting Kansas City Friday night at the StubHub Center. The match will mark the lone meeting during the regular season between the clubs and will be televised on Time Warner Cable Deportes beginning at 7:30 p.m. (PT). The action can also be heard on ESPN Deportes Radio KWKU 1220 AM. For more information visit cdchivasusa.com and follow the club on Twitter and Facebook.

Last Match Action Chivas USA fell, 3-0, to the Columbus Crew last Sunday at Crew Stadium. Columbus’ Justin Meram led the Eastern Conference side’s attack with a secondhalf brace and Bernardo Anor tallied the third score to finish off the shutout. The Red-and-White looked to get on the front foot in the first half and tried to put forwards Felix Borja and Ryan Finley into the box early on. In the 22nd minute, Borja set up Nigel Reo-Coker in transition and played the midfielder a short pass to the right of the arc. Reo-Coker then fired on frame but was unable to capitalize on the chance when his shot was deflected, allowing Columbus goalkeeper Steve Clark to secure the threat. The Crew had a golden chance at taking the advantage after being awarded a penalty in the final minute of the half on the end of a corner kick. As the ball was played in from the right side into the mixer, the referee signaled for the maximum penalty. Yet Columbus’ Federico Higuain could not convert, as he sent his shot crashing off the crossbar. Columbus opened the scoring in the 52nd minute when Waylon Francis set up Meram on the left wing with space. The forward then pushed the ball to the edge of the 18-yard box and curled his right-footed shot inside the far post to put his side up 1-0. In the 58th minute, Chivas forward Marvin Chavez nearly leveled the match five minutes after coming on as a sub. Chavez squared up to his marker on the right side of the box, created space to his left and fired a left-footed bender just wide of the second post. Instead, the Crew doubled the advantage to 2-0 a minute later when Meram placed his strike inside the right post from the arc after capitalizing on a turnover. The home side would go on to add a third goal in the 80th minute when Hector Jimenez linked up with Anor with a cross sent to the back post for a scoring header to cap off the three-point result.

Red-and-White Notes Red-and-White Look to Secure Points at Home

Chivas USA enter Friday’s interconference match looking to take three points in their lone meeting of the regular season against the reigning MLS champ. The Red-and-White have had success when hosting Sporting Kansas City, securing three wins and a pair of ties in eight all-time meetings in Carson. The Goats fell to Sporting KC in last year’s meeting, 4-0, at Sporting Park.

Burling and Minda Regain Eligibility

Defender Bobby Burling and midfielder Oswaldo Minda will be eligible for selection in Friday’s contest after serving their league-imposed onegame suspension due to yellow card accumulation. Burling, who was making his second appearance since missing the previous six weeks while he recovered from a knee injury, was booked in the 49th minute of Chivas USA’s Week 26 match against Seattle Sounders FC, while Minda received his caution in the 72nd. The duo have recorded a combined 30 appearances this season for the Goats.

Looking Ahead

Friday’s match will cap off a stretch for the Red-and-White in which they faced four games in less than two weeks. After their Week 27 home match, the Goats’ next contest will come on Sept. 21 when they square off against Toronto FC at BMO Field. Like the other meetings against Eastern Conference sides, the match will mark the lone meeting between the clubs during the 2014 regular season.

‘Cubo’ Torres Sees Action with Mexican National Team

Chivas USA striker Erick “Cubo” Torres earned his first cap with the Mexican National Team on Tuesday and helped lead El Tri to a 1-0 victory over Bolivia. Torres was called up on Aug. 21 and played the full 90 minutes at Colorado’s Dick’s Sporting Goods Park. The 21-year-old leads the Red-and-White with 14 goals and currently ranks third among the league’s scoring leaders. A native of Guadalajara, Torres had previously represented Mexico at the Under-20 level during the 2011 World Cup. The international call-up adds to the forward’s successful 2014 campaign, as he also earned an MLS All-Star selection in August.

Bocanegra Announces Retirement

Chivas USA captain and two-time U.S. Men’s National Team World Cup veteran Carlos Bocanegra announced on Sept. 4 that he plans to retire at the conclusion of the 2014 MLS season. The 35-year-old finishes a stellar 15-year professional career that saw him emerge as the USA’s alltime leading goal scorer among defenders with 14. A native of Upland, Calif., Bocanegra joined Chivas USA for his second MLS stint from Spanish La Liga side Real Racing Club de Santander, S.A.D in July 2013, embracing a remarkable leadership role in the Red-and-White locker room. In his return to MLS, the center back has started in 30 games for the Rojiblancos, logging 2,672 minutes. To read Bocanegra’s full retirement press release click here.

Kennedy Continues Adding to All-Time Club Record

With his start on June 8, goalkeeper Dan Kennedy became the club’s all-time leader in games played with 124, surpassing former standouts Jonathan Bornstein and Francisco Mendoza. Kennedy broke Bornstein’s club-high 118 starts in Week 10 and continues to add to his club record for minutes played as well. The keeper joined Chivas USA in 2009 and has made at least 32 starts over the previous three seasons.

Team Connections

Sporting KC midfielders Paolo Nagamura and Sal Zizzo both played for the Red-and-White. Nagamura appeared in 99 games with the Goats between 2007-2011, helping the club reach the playoffs three times. Zizzo spent the 2010 season with Chivas USA and appeared in 10 matches.

Goats Notes & Facts (Cont.) Nine Red-and-White Acquisitions Make Their MLS Debuts

Nine Chivas USA acquisitions have made their MLS debuts this season, including rookies Thomas McNamara – who recorded his first career goal in Week 1 – and Kristopher Tyrpak. Midfielders Leandro Barrera and Agustin Pelletieri have become key starters for the Red-and-White since the start of the regular season. Right back Akira Kaji made his League debut on July 20 against D.C. United after the Japanese international joined Chivas USA from Gamba Osaka. Defender Donald Toia made his pro debut in Week 4 at Red Bull Arena as a second-half sub. Rookie goalkeeper Trevor Spangenberg was forced into action off the bench on May 6 against Houston when starter Dan Kennedy was sent off with a red card. In addition, recently acquired striker Felix Borja went the full 90 minutes in his League debut in Week 23 just two days after officially joining the club via loan. Fellow Ecuadorian, Luis Bolaños, saw his first action at home in Week 26, coming on as a sub in the 79th minute and made his road debut off the bench four days later.

’SOCCER KICKS CANCER’

During the month of September, MLS W.O.R.K.S, the league’s community outreach initiative, will celebrate Children’s Cancer Awareness Month with its “Soccer Kicks Cancer” campaign. This year, MLS W.O.R.K.S has partnered with Children’s Oncology Group (COG), the world’s largest organization devoted exclusively to childhood and adolescent cancer research. In an effort to help raise awareness and funds for the cause, Chivas USA will host their Childhood Cancer Awareness (CCA) Night during the Red-and-White’s Week 27 match against reigning MLS Cup Champion, Sporting Kansas City, on Friday beginning at 7:30 p.m. (PT) at the StubHub Center. As part of the campaign, CCA pin-up paper scarfs will be available for purchase for the minimum donation of $1 and will be displayed in and around the stadium. All collected funds will be split evenly between local and national COG beneficiaries. Additionally, Chivas USA and Sporting KC players will wear special “Soccer Kicks Cancer” t-shirts during the pregame ceremonies and national anthem.

Sporting KC has sold out 50 straight MLS home games at Sporting Park. Sporting KC has won 241 MLS regular season games, third most in league history. Sporting KC has tied 122 MLS regular season games, most in MLS history. Peter Vermes is in his sixth season as manager, second longest in club history behind Bob Gansler. Vermes’ winning percentage (.555) is best for Sporting KC all-time. During the 2014 MLS regular season, 30 different players have featured for Sporting KC and 30 have earned starts, both club records. Graham Zusi’s 501 career corner kicks taken in the MLS regular season are most all-time for Sporting KC. Graham Zusi is in third place on Sporting KC’s all-time assist chart with 37. Aurelien Collin is second in club history for most MLS goals scored by a defender with 15, two shy of Jimmy Conrad (17). Matt Besler is in ninth place on the club’s all-time chart for regular season games started (140). Dom Dwyer, C.J. Sapong and Graham Zusi are tied for ninth all-time on the club’s regular season goal scoring chart with 20 each. Dom Dwyer’s 18 MLS goals in 2014 are tied for first on the club’s singleseason goal scoring chart. On Aug. 16, Jon Kempin became the youngest goalkeeper to start an MLS match for Sporting KC in club history (21 years, 131 days). On Aug. 16, Dom Dwyer became the first player in Sporting KC history to record two penalty kick goals in the same game. Dom Dwyer’s five multi-goal games are tied for most in a single season in club history (and tied for third-most all-time).

sporting kc news & notes Dwyer ties Sporting KC’s single season scoring record Forward Dom Dwyer moved atop Sporting KC’s all-time single-season scoring chart on Sept. 6, notching his 18th goal of the campaign in a 2-1 defeat at the New York Red Bulls. Dwyer’s 54th-minute strike tied him with Preki, whose 18goal haul in the inaugural 1996 season was unmatched for nearly 18 years. Making his 50th MLS appearance, Dwyer was on the mark following a free kick from Graham Zusi. Seth Sinovic won the header at the back post to set up Dwyer, who side-volleyed his shot from the top of the six-yard box. Dwyer is second in the MLS Golden Boot race, trailing New York’s Bradley Wright-Phillips (21 goals) with six games remaining in the regular season. A 2014 MLS All-Star, Dwyer leads MLS with five multi-goal games (tied for third most in club history all-time) and leads all players with 13 left-footed goals and three headed goals. The 24-year-old has appeared in a team-high 27 League matches this season. All five of Dwyer’s multi-goal games have come against Canadian opposition (three vs. Montreal, two vs. Toronto). Only six MLS players have recorded more multi-goal games in a season over the League’s 19-year history. Furthermore, the Englishman’s six successful penalties in 2014 are now second most in team history and fourth most in a single-season by an MLS player all-time. Alongside teammates C.J. Sapong and Graham Zusi, Dwyer is tied for ninth on the club’s career goal scoring chart. Sporting KC all-time regular season scoring list Player Goals GP Seasons 1. Preki 71 218 1996-2000; 2002-05 2.

Sporting KC news & Notes (continued) Injuries and international duty test Sporting KC’s depth

Sporting KC kicks off 2014-15 CONCACAF Champions League campaign

Through 28 games in the 2014 MLS regular season, Sporting KC has featured 27 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 career MLS start.

Sporting KC battled to a 1-1 draw against Real Esteli FC on Aug. 19 in their opening game of the 2014-15 CONCACAF Champions League at Estadio Independencia in Esteli, Nicaragua. The defending MLS Cup champions will now return home for back-to-back CCL 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.

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, Aurelien Collin, Dom Dwyer and Benny Feilhaber have served one-game suspensions.

Esteli and Saprissa kicked off Group 2 action on Aug. 6, battling to a 1-1 draw in Nicaragua. Saprissa then defeated Esteli 3-0 in the return fixture on Aug. 26. The team with the most points at the conclusion of the CCL group stage will advance to the quarterfinal round in early 2015. Sporting KC advanced to the 2013-14 quarterfinals in March against Mexican club and eventual champion Cruz Azul, losing 5-2 on aggregate.

As a result, 30 different players have started an MLS match for the club this season, a team record and most in the League. Of those 30 players, 12 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, tied for most in 2014 with Chivas USA.

Paying the penalty Sporting KC has conceded seven penalty kicks through 28 matches this year, tied for most in the club’s single-season history. This follows a League-wide trend, as referees have frequently pointed to the spot in 2014. As of Sept. 9, 110 penalty kicks have been awarded through 252 games (0.44 per game). The whole 2013 regular season had 81 penalties (0.25 per game), while the 2012 campaign had 72 penalties (0.22 per game).

Spot on for Sporting KC Dom Dwyer’s six consecutive penalty kick conversions in 2014 continues a recent trend for the MLS champions from the penalty spot. The club has now scored on 13 straight attempts dating back to 2012 -- the longest active streak in MLS -- and has proven successful on 26 of their last 27 penalty kicks dating back to 2007. In addition, the club secured the 2012 U.S. Open Cup and 2013 MLS Cup in penalty shootout wins.

Palmer-Brown features for U.S. U-20 Men’s National Team in Argentina Sporting KC homegrown defender Erik Palmer-Brown joined United States Under-20 Men’s National team for a training camp and three friendly matches in Buenos Aires, Argentina from Sept. 1-10. Palmer-Brown started in central defense for all three friendlies—a 2-0 win against Racing Club Reserves (Sept. 4), a 3-2 victory over Defensa y Justicia Reserves (Sept. 6) and a 1-1 stalemate with the Argentina U-20 National Team (Sept. 9). Palmer-Brown signed a homegrown player contract with Sporting KC in August 2013 and has logged five appearances for the club in all competitions this season. The Lee’s Summit, Missouri native made his professional debut in May, becoming the youngest player in MLS history to start a regular season match as a defender, for the first of three MLS games played to date. He also appeared in the 2014 Chipotle MLS Homegrown Game and this summer’s Champions Shield against Manchester City.

Sporting Park sellout streak Sporting Park has sold out 50 straight MLS matches, including four playoff games. Since opening in June 2011, the venue has sold out 63 of 71 MLS games and averaged 19,334 spectators, 104.7 percent of its 18,467 capacity. Through 14 MLS matches of the 2014 home campaign, Sporting Park’s average attendance is 20,172. The stadium’s 109.2 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).

Deportivo Saprissa has won three CONCACAF Champions Cup titles (1993, 1995 and 2005) and won their 30th league title in May 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 KC’s USL PRO affiliates end regular season USL PRO affiliate OKC Energy FC concluded their inaugural season on Sept. 6, knocking off the Orange County Blues 1-0. Former Sporting KC captain Jimmy Nielsen ended his first year as head coach with a 9-14-5 record (32 points) as 10th place OKC fell five points short of the eighth and final playoff spot. Five Sporting KC players -- Duke, Kevin Ellis, Jimmy Medranda, Jon Kempin and Mikey Lopez -- saw action for OKC in 2014. Lopez led the group in total appearances (14) and was the lone goal scorer. He was also the only player to also feature for Orlando City SC. Duke accumulated the most assists (three) and minutes played (912). Orlando City SC, meanwhile, lifted their third USL PRO Commissioners Cup in four seasons, ending the regular season at 19-4-5 (62 points), seven points clear of second place Sacramento Republic FC. The affiliate club begins their defense of the USL PRO crown when they host the Harrisburg City Islanders in this Saturday’s quarterfinal round.

Sporting KC news & Notes (continued) Besler and Zusi sign Designated Player contracts with Sporting KC

Sporting KC a consistent contender in MLS

Sporting KC signed defender Matt Besler and midfielder Graham Zusi to longterm Designated Player contracts on July 19.

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 is the only team to win both the MLS Cup (2013) and U.S. Open Cup (2012). It is also the only club with multiple regular season conference titles (2011, 2012).

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 155 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. Zusi is also coming off a strong performance at the 2014 FIFA World Cup. He appeared in all four games for head coach Jurgen Klinsmann and contributed assists in back-to-back group stage games against Ghana and Portugal. The 28-year-old has earned 27 career international appearances with three goals and six assists. Taken in the second round of the 2009 MLS SuperDraft as a two-time national champion at the University of Maryland, Zusi has recorded 20 goals and 42 assists in 153 MLS matches (including postseason) over six professional seasons with Sporting KC.
