SPORTING KANSAS CITY vs FC DALLAS SPORTING PARK, Kansas City, Kan. September 18, 2015 (WEEK 29, MLS Game #286) 6 p.m. CT (UniMás; UDN; KMCI-38) It’s a critical contest in the Western Conference on Viernes de Fútbol when Sporting Kansas City and FC Dallas meet for a third time this season at Sporting Park. The teams are separated by six points in the division, both sitting inside the top six and playoff positions. Sporting return home after their winless run was extended to five games with a 3-1 loss at Orlando City SC last weekend. FC Dallas extended their winning run to three matches in a 2-1 win against New York FC last Saturday at Toyota Stadium. REFEREE: Mark Geiger.

Krisztian Nemeth, Benny Feilhaber, Kevin Ellis and Graham Zusi all scored as Sporting cruised to a 4-0 win May 29 at Sporting Park. Blas Perez scored on either side of halftime and Fabian Castillo put the match away with a late goal as FC Dallas claimed a 3-1 win March 14 at Toyota Stadium.  The wins are the first for either team in the all-time series since 2012, when Sporting won 2-1 in Kansas City. The last FCD victory had come in 2011, a 3-2 at Sporting Park on Aug. 27.  Coaches record: Peter Vermes vs. DAL: P10 W4 L4 D2 … Oscar Pareja vs. KC: P5 W1 L2 D2 LAST MEETING (MLS)  Sporting took the lead in the 19th minute. After Krisztian Nemeth was fouled about 30 yards from goal on the right, Graham Zusi put the free kick service into the six-yard box, and center back Kevin Ellis headed the ball back across the goalmouth for Nemeth to finish from point-blank range inside Dan Kennedy's right post.  FC Dallas went a man down two minutes before halftime when Zach Loyd grabbed and pulled down Nemeth on the left wing 10 minutes after drawing his first caution and was sent off by referee David Gantar.  The lead was doubled in the 51st minute, when SKC right back Jalil Anibaba sent the ball into the area to Nemeth. He spun away from a defender and centered the ball to an unmarked Benny Feilhaber, who slotted it past Kennedy.  Six minutes later, Zusi sent in a corner kick and Ellis raced in past a fallen defender to head the ball home. Then in the 64th minute, Connor Hallisey took a long pass in the FCD penalty area and cut across goal before sending a backheel into Zusi's path for a finish under Kennedy and the final scoreline.  SPORTING KANSAS CITY (4-1-2-3): Tim Melia - Jalil Anibaba, Kevin Ellis, Matt Besler, Amadou Dia - Soni Mustivar - Benny Feilhaber, Roger Espinoza (Servando Carrasco 71) - Connor Hallisey (Marcel de Jong 65), Krisztian Nemeth, Graham Zusi (Saad Abdul-Salaam 83).  FC DALLAS (4-2-3-1): Dan Kennedy - Je-Vaughn Watson, Zach Loyd (ejected 43), Matt Hedges, Moises Hernandez - Kyle Bekker, Victor Ulloa - Ryan Hollingshead, Mauro Diaz (Michel 72), Tesho Akindele (David Texeira 74) - Blas Perez (Rolando Escobar 46).

MLS GAME INFORMATION

SPORTING KANSAS CITY Sporting Kansas City had their winless streak extended to five games with a fourth defeat in that time, falling 3-1 to Orlando City SC on Sunday evening at the Citrus Bowl. Sporting are in a tie for fifth place in the Western Conference with 41 points from 27 matches. LAST MATCH  Orlando City opened the scoring in just the third minute. A foul set up Luke Boden for a dangerous set piece service from the right flank, and no one Adrian Winter’s run to the far post on the ensuing restart, free to head home Boden’s cross past a helpless Jon Kempin in the SKC goal.  Sporting were able to pull level in the 59th minute. Benny Feilhaber found Krisztian Nemeth cutting in from the left, and he powered into the area before driving a rising shot into the top corner.  But OCSC nosed back in front in the 66th minute. Brek Shea got clear on the left and exposed a retreating defense with the perfect low cross for Bryan Rochez to crash the ball home from six yards.  Just six minutes later it was Rochez winning a loose ball in the SKC penalty area and cutting it back for Lewis Neal, who slipped Winter through to stab a first-time shot past Kempin to seal the match.  Sporting ended the game a man down after Dom Dwyer was shown a red card in the 87th minute by referee Jair Marrufo following an altercation with Orlando City’s David Mateos.  SKC manager Peter Vermes made two changes to the team that reached a scoreless draw with the Portland Timbers at Providence Park. Jon Kempin started in goal in place of Tim Melia, and Krisztian Nemeth came into the team in place of Paulo Nagamura.  SPORTING KANSAS CITY (4-1-2-3): Jon Kempin - Saad Abdul-Salaam, Kevin Ellis, Matt Besler, Seth Sinovic - Soni Mustivar - Graham Zusi, Benny Feilhaber (Jordi Quintilla 73) - Jacob Peterson (Bernardo Anor 46), Dom Dwyer (ejected 87), Krisztian Nemeth. TEAM NEWS  Sporting saw their winless run extended to five matches with their fourth loss in the stretch in the defeat by Orlando City, their longest winless run within a single season since last May 14-31.  “I didn’t think we were poor, I thought we were actually moving the ball well and creating some chances. I thought we had good energy. … The bottom line is that all three goals from my opinion from our perspective were way too soft,” said SKC manager Peter Vermes. “But credit to them I thought they had good energy and worked hard, and they took the opportunities when they could.”  Sporting conceded multiple goals for the fifth time in the last six matches, having allowed 16 goals in that span. They had conceded three goals or more just twice in their opening 21 games; since Aug. 15, they’ve done it four times in six league contests.  “You can't give up soft goals,” Vermes said. “Can't give up soft goals. You cannot give up soft goals, because you can't keep chasing games. And we're giving up soft goals. That's probably the simplest thing. You can't give up soft goals.”  Krisztian Nemeth scored his first goal since Aug. 8, his ninth of his first MLS season, tying him with Dom Dwyer for the Sporting club lead.  Benny Feilhaber collected his first assist since Aug. 15, now with 14 assists for the season, tying him for the MLS lead with Cristian Maidana (PHI).  Jon Kempin made the start between the posts, his first appearance of the season with the SKC first team, and his first since Aug. 29, 2014. The Homegrown Player had made his MLS debut last Aug. 10.  Tim Melia, who had played every minute of every Sporting match since May 3, missed out on the Orlando City match after suffering a quadriceps strain in the Portland game.  “He had a little bit of a strain in his quad,” Vermes said, “and we didn't want to create a worse injury, so we thought it was best to give him a rest since we had two games so close to each other.”

MLS GAME INFORMATION

FC DALLAS FC Dallas made it three wins in a row, defeating New York City FC 2-1 on Saturday evening at Toyota Stadium. FC Dallas are in a tie for second place in the Western Conference with 47 points from 27 matches. LAST MATCH  FC Dallas finally broke through right at the 45-minute mark. Michel sent a high pass from the Dallas end to a streaking Tesho Akindele down the right flank, and he beat his man in a one-on-one battle before blasted a shot from the right side of the penalty box into the top, left corner of the net.  Just before referee Alan Kelly whistled the close to the first half it was the turn of Michel to curl a bending drive from a corner kick that slipped through the NYC defense and past goalkeeper Josh Saunders for a rare olimpico.  NYCFC pulled a goal back in the 70th minute after FCD defender Atiba Harris fouled Ned Grabavoy with contact to the head inside the penalty area. Halftime substitute Patrick Mullins drilled the resulting penalty to the right of goalkeeper Jesse Gonzalez.  FCD head coach Oscar Pareja made four changes to the team that rolled to a 3-0 victory against Columbus Crew SC at Mapfre Stadium. Je-Vaughn Watson, Tesho Akindele, Michel and Fabian Castillo all came into the team, replacing Ryan Hollingshead, Coy Craft, Victor Ulloa and Alex Zendejas.  FC DALLAS (4-4-2): Jesse Gonzalez - Atiba Harris (Ryan Hollingshead 76), Zach Loyd, Matt Hedges, JeVaughn Watson - Tesho Akindele (Walker Zimmerman 83), Kellyn Acosta, Michel, Fabian Castillo - David Texeira (Rolando Escobar 67), Michael Barrios. TEAM NEWS  FC Dallas won their third game in a row with the victory against New York City FC, their third winning run this season of three games or more. The three-game winning run followed a season-long three-game losing slide – which followed a season-long five-game winning streak.  FC Dallas also conceded their first goal after back-to-back shutouts, the NYCFC goal their first allowed in 308 minutes, the eighth-longest stretch in MLS this season.  “They made me think about how a team like ours, that is growing so much, could hold on and get a result that was very difficult to obtain. We played against great footballers and our boys should be very proud. We managed the tempo in the first half. They gave us a great soccer performance,” said FCD head coach Oscar Pareja.  Tesho Akindele scored his fifth goal of the season, his second in his last two matches. Akindele returned to the starting lineup and played 83 minutes in a wide right midfield role after missing out on the Columbus game.  “It wasn’t our best performance, quality-wise but we showed character. We all showed character. Everyone just dug in and worked hard even though our passes were not the best, and our control was not the best, we worked hard defensively. That is just what it takes sometimes,” said Akindele.  Michel returned to the starting lineup for the first time since June 19, playing the full 90 minutes in a central midfield role.  Michel scored his first goal this season, the second of his Major League Soccer career directly from a corner kick (also May 18, 2013). He joined Thierry Henry, David Beckham and Marco Pappa as players to have scored directly from corners over the last five seasons.  “We never know when the opportunity is coming. Yesterday, Victor [Ulloa] was ready to play. Today he was not. I waited for my chance. Every time the coach needs me or the team needs me, I will be ready. I will be ready to help this team. I am so glad for [this game],” said Michel.  Said Akindele: His quality, his delivery is spot-on. I don’t know if anyone in the league hits a better ball. No leftfooter for sure can hit a better ball. He is incredible. ... It was a free goal but it went in because it had so much pace. It was exactly in the right spot. It always has a chance to go in, even against a professional goalkeeper. It’s pretty amazing. He is a true pro. He has been around the block. He knows he is an important part of the team and he was ready when he was called upon.”  Michel also added an assist, the fourth time in his MLS career he’s scored a goal and added an assist in the same game (from 12 career league goals).  “[Michel’s] professionalism is a good example to the kids we have in the academy and the players that are growing in our program. They always see a player who is willing to work despite the circumstances,” said Pareja. “The last game Michel played was probably in June and you can see today that he was in his best fitness form. Something has been happening, both with the fitness coach that has been on top of him, respecting him and giving him all that he needs and the professional that is absorbing all that and doing his job.”

Sporting KC Game Notes | Sept. 18, 2015 vs. FC Dallas | SportingKC.com/Game-Notes SPORTING KANSAS CITY NEWS AND NOTES LAST TIME OUT: NEMETH SCORES IN LOSS TO LIONS

FEILHABER ON FIRE

Sporting KC’s four-game road trip ended with a 3-1 loss at Orlando City SC on Sunday. Krisztian Nemeth returned from international duty to score his ninth goal of the MLS campaign, tied for the team lead, while Benny Feilhaber set the club’s new single-season record with his 19th assist in all competitions, including an MLS-best 14 assists in the regular season.

Midfielder Benny Feilhaber is piecing together one of the best seasons in Sporting KC history, setting MLS career highs with eight goals and 14 assists during an MVPcaliber 2015 season. The 30-year-old World Cup veteran has contributed a goal or an assist in 14 of his last 18 matches in all competitions. In a 3-1 defeat at Orlando City SC on Sunday, Feilhaber recorded his 19th assist of the season in all competitions, breaking the club record he had previously shared with Preki (2003). Earlier this year, he became just the second player in club history (Preki) to reach 10 goals and 15 assists in a single season (all competitions). Feilhaber won MLS Player of the Month for April and received MLS All-Star honors for the first time in his career when he was named to the All-Star Fan XI and competed in the 2015 AT&T MLS All-Star Game on July 29. He has bagged two MLS Goal of the Week Awards (Weeks 8 and 21) and earned Team of the Week honors on eight separate occasions from various media outlets (see page 5).

Despite a five-game winless streak, Sporting KC remains in fifth place in the Western Conference with seven games remaining — all against teams in the West — in the regular season, as well as the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup Final on Sept. 30. The club will now return home to host second-place FC Dallas at 6 p.m. CT on Friday at Sporting Park.

HOME SWEET HOME

Sporting KC is amidst a daunting portion of the schedule that will see the team play eight of 10 matches away from home. The stretch began Aug. 22 when the club surrendered a late lead in a 3-2 defeat at Columbus Crew SC. A week later, Sporting KC again struck first only to fall 2-1 at the Colorado Rapids. It was the club’s first loss to Colorado in 14 MLS meetings dating back to 2009 (including playoffs).

After a bye during the first weekend of September, Sporting KC embarked on a twogame road trip that began in the Pacific Northwest against the Portland Timbers (0-0 draw) last Wednesday and ended in the opposite corner of the country against Orlando City SC (3-1 loss) on Sunday.

MIGHTY MUSTIVAR BACK IN THE FOLD

Peter Vermes’ men now have two of three at home, with matches against FC Dallas (Friday) and Seattle Sounders FC (Sept. 27) sandwiching a road fixture with the Houston Dynamo (Sept. 23). Their travels continue with another formidable road trip, beginning with the 2015 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup Final at the Philadelphia Union (Sept. 30) and ending with a cross-country trek to Portland three days later (Oct. 3). After the October international break, Sporting KC will visit San Jose (Oct. 16) before rounding out the 2015 regular season with home games against Colorado Rapids (Oct. 21) and LA Galaxy (Oct. 25).

After missing three straight matches with a groin strain, defensive midfielder Soni Mustivar returned to the Sporting KC lineup in last Wednesday’s 0-0 draw at the Portland Timbers. It was a welcome addition for Peter Vermes’ side, who were 0-30 with 10 goals allowed during the stretch that Mustivar was sidelined through injury. Sporting KC is 13-3-4 in all competitions when Mustivar starts this season. The 25-year-old Haitian, who joined the club in March from Romanian club Petrolul Ploiesti, leads MLS with 5.8 interceptions per 90 minutes played while serving as a shield in front of Sporting KC’s back four.

MELIA TAKES TEAM OF THE WEEK HONORS

ROOKIE RELEVANCE

When last Wednesday’s scoreless draw at the Portland Timbers came to an end, Sporting KC largely had one man to thank. Tim Melia notched an MLS career-high seven saves — including five in a back-and-forth second half — to help Sporting KC snap a three-game losing streak with a hard-earned point at Providence Park. The resounding performance in goal landed him Team of the Week honors on MLSsoccer. com for the fifth time this year, as well as a spot on SI.com’s Best XI for Week 28.

Three of Sporting KC’s first round selections in the 2015 MLS SuperDraft — Connor Hallisey (No. 10) Saad Abdul-Salaam (No. 12) and Amadou Dia (No. 20) — have contributed valuably to a campaign that sees the team in contention for U.S. Open Cup and Supporters’ Shield titles. The trio has combined for 47 regular season matches played, more rookie appearances than any other MLS club in 2015. Each player has also featured in all four matches during Sporting KC’s run to the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup Final.

“Where do you start with Tim’s performance tonight?” said Sporting KC captain and center back Matt Besler after the match. “Everybody put in the effort, (but) the guy behind me was incredible. He made three or four highlight reel saves that kept us in the game. Without him I don’t know if we get a point tonight but that’s what we expect out of him. We believe he’s one of the best goalkeepers in the league.”

SET PIECE SALVO

Sporting KC has been one of the league’s most dangerous teams in set piece situations. The club leads MLS with 12 assists from set plays, 60 chances created from set plays and 14 headed goals — three more than any other team. Benny Feilhaber is second in MLS with five set piece assists (behind Brad Davis’ six), while Kevin Ellis and Dom Dwyer are tied for third with three headed goals apiece despite both standing at five-foot-nine.

A sixth-year MLS veteran who previously served as a League Pool goalkeeper and a backup at Real Salt Lake (2010-11) and Chivas USA (2012-14), Melia assumed starting duties in May and has subsequently enjoyed a breakout season in 2015. He boasts a 13-5-4 record in all competitions while recording seven shutouts and 60 saves in league play.

Sporting KC’s aerial prowess bodes well for the rest of the 2015 campaign. For seven consecutive MLS seasons (and eight of the last nine), the team with the most headed goals has gone on to win the Supporters’ Shield and/or MLS Cup.

Homegrown goalkeeper Jon Kempin made his 2015 debut for Sporting KC in Sunday’s 3-1 loss at Orlando CIty SC. Making his first start for the club since August 2014, Kempin came up big in the 55th minute by sprawling at full extension to touch Lewis Neal’s shot attempt over the crossbar. The stop was subsequently nominated for MLS Save of the Week, an award that Kempin won twice during his breakout campaign in 2014. Tim Melia was also among the five nominees for Week 28’s best save. His kick-stop in the 29th minute of last Wednesday’s scoreless draw at Portland was his second of a career-high seven stops on the night.

SPORTING PARK SELLOUT STREAK

CUP FINAL BECKONS

CONCACAF announced on Tuesday that Sporting KC defender Matt Besler and midfielder Graham Zusi were named to the United States Men’s National Team’s provisional 35-player roster for CONCACAF Cup 2015 between the U.S. MNT and Mexico on Oct. 10 at the Rose Bowl. Each national team will select their final 23-player rosters by Oct. 1 from the players on their provisional roster. The winner of CONCACAF Cup 2015, featuring the past two Gold Cup champions, will determine the region’s representative at the 2017 FIFA Confederations Cup in Russia.

Sporting KC has advanced to the 2015 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup Final where they will face the Philadelphia Union on Sept. 30 at PPL Park in Chester, Penn. The club will play for its third Open Cup title in team history, having previously lifted the Dewar Challenge Trophy as champions of the tournament in 2004 and 2012. Peter Vermes’ men reached the 2015 final with four consecutive home wins in the earlier rounds, beginning with a 1-0 result against USL club Saint Louis FC on June 16. Two weeks later, Dom Dwyer netted a club-record four goals as Sporting KC trounced FC Dallas 6-2 in the Round of 16. Sporting KC erased deficits in the quarterfinals and semifinals, respectively, defeating the Houston Dynamo (July 21) and Real Salt Lake (Aug. 12) by identical 3-1 scorelines. Dwyer is the tournament’s current Golden Boot leader on five goals, and with that total becomes Kansas City’s all-time leading scorer in the competition. Similarly, Benny Feilhaber has surged atop the club’s all-time Open Cup assist chart with five, each of them coming in 2015.

Besler, 28, has played every minute in Sporting Kansas City’s last 29 matches across all competitions and leads all MLS players with 182 clearances in 2015. In his seventh professional season, Besler leads all current players with 210 appearances for the club across all competitions. He is a four-time MLS All-Star to go along with MLS Best XI (2012, 2013) and Defender of the Year (2012) honors. Internationally, Besler has 26 career appearances for the U.S. Men’s National Team since debuting in 2013. He helped lead the U.S. MNT to the 2013 CONCACAF Gold Cup title and started all four matches for the U.S. at the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil.

Seeking their first major trophy in team history, the Philadelphia Union will host the U.S. Open Cup Final for a second straight year. Seattle Sounders FC earned a 3-1 extra time victory at PPL Park to claim the 2014 title last September.

Besler most recently came off the bench for the U.S. Men’s National Team on Sept. 4 to play 28 minutes in a 2-1 come-from-behind win over Peru in an international friendly held at RFK Stadium in Washington, D.C. Besler entered in the 62nd minute for John Brooks and his six combined interceptions/clearances were most among all American players in the match.

ABOUT THE OPEN CUP

Now in its 102nd edition, the 2015 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup was headlined by the largest field in the modern era (1995-present) with 89 teams in contention when the first round began in May. The 2015 champion will win $250,000 in prize money, while the runner-up receives $60,000. The tournament winner qualifies for the group stage of the 2016-17 CONCACAF Champions League.

Zusi, a fellow Designated Player and 2009 MLS SuperDraft pick, has earned MLS AllStar honors each of the last four seasons to go along with MLS Best XI (2012, 2013) and Breakout Player of the Year (2011) recognitions. The University of Maryland product sits third on Sporting KC’s all-time assists charts (43) and his 24 goals scored are 10th most in team history.

The Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup has been held annually since 1914 and is open to all amateur/professional soccer teams affiliated with U.S. Soccer. It is the oldest ongoing national soccer competition in the U.S. and the world’s third-longest continuously running open soccer tournament. Sporting KC first won the championship in 2004 with a 1-0 win over the Chicago Fire at Arrowhead Stadium. Eight years later, the club lifted its second Open Cup title with a penalty kick shootout triumph over Seattle Sounders FC at Sporting Park.

The 29-year-old has 32 international caps for the United States with three goals and six assists, including two assists at the 2014 FIFA World Cup, since his debut in 2012. This summer, Zusi made three appearances at the 2015 CONCACAF Gold Cup.

Sporting KC Game Notes | Sept. 18, 2015 vs. FC Dallas | SportingKC.com/Game-Notes SPORTING KANSAS CITY NEWS AND NOTES (CONTINUED) HOME STREAK SNAPPED

2015 SPORTING KC MEDIA RECOGNITIONS

A 5-0 defeat to the San Jose Earthquakes on Aug. 19 snapped Sporting KC’s home unbeaten run at 16 games in all competitions dating back to March 8. The streak broke the previous club record which spanned two seasons from 2004-2005 and also included a club-record 12-game home unbeaten streak in MLS (8-0-4).

SAADABDUL-SALAAM Team of the Week

Sporting KC rattled off nine consecutive home victories from May 3 to July 21, also setting a new club record. The result saw Peter Vermes’ men top the eight-game winning run made in 2004 when Bob Gansler’s side won the U.S. Open Cup in September and advanced to MLS Cup in November.

GOALS IN BUNCHES

Sporting KC is fifth in MLS with 1.52 goals scored per game and has hit four goals in four regular season games this year. Just twice previously (1996, 2010) has Kansas City reached the four-goal mark on four occasions in the same regular season. In addition, Sporting KC’s 47 MLS assists (with seven games still to play) are their most in a single regular season since 2005 (48). Seventh-year head coach Peter Vermes has stamped his name in the Sporting KC and MLS history books this season. The 48-year-old began the 2015 campaign with 76 regular season coaching wins, good for 14th most in MLS history. More than six months later, Vermes has climbed to eighth all-time with 87 regular season victories—sixth among active coaches behind Sigi Schmid (220), Bruce Arena (189), Dominic Kinnear (150), Frank Yallop (130) and Jason Kreis (97). In addition, 2015 has seen Vermes become Kansas City’s winningest coach ever. When Sporting KC beat Real Salt Lake 3-1 in the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup semifinals on Aug. 12, Vermes earned his 109th coaching win for the club in all competitions to pass his former coach Bob Gansler atop the club’s all-time chart. Three days later, Sporting KC pulled off a 4-3 comeback win to give Vermes his 87th regular season triumph, also passing Gansler for sole possession of first place in team history. The second-longest tenured manager in team history behind Gansler (1999-2006), Vermes assumed head coaching duties in August 2009 and has since compiled a 110-75-58 record in all competitions. He led Sporting KC to the 2012 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup championship and in 2013 became the first person to win MLS Cup as both a player and coach with the same team.

Bernardo Anor joined Sporting KC from Columbus Crew SC in December 2014 to become the club’s first offseason acquisition. The 27-year-old native of Venezuela appeared in 72 matches over four seasons with Columbus, scoring 12 goals and adding three game-winning assists since being drafted out of the University of South Florida in 2011. He made his Sporting KC debut with a start on March 8 before being sidelined from May through August with multiple injuries.

He returned in 2013 to make 19 MLS starts and earn the club’s Comeback Player of the Year award. He netted a career-high six goals in 2014, helping Columbus earn a postseason berth for the first time since 2011. Anor was South Florida’s top scorer for three seasons during his collegiate career (2007-2010) in which he recorded 21 goals and seven assists. His younger brother, Juan Pablo, plays professionally for Malaga CF in Spain’s La Liga, and his father, Bernardo, represented Venezuela at the 1980 Summer Olympics in Moscow.

Sporting KC captain Matt Besler is in his seventh season at his hometown club. He has earned MLS Best XI (2012, 2013), MLS All-Star (2011, 2013-2015), MLS Defender of the Year (2012) and MLS Breakout Player of the Year (2012) honors and was named the 2014 KC Sportsman of the Year by the Kansas City Sports Commission. He was named to the MLS All-Star Fan XI ahead of the 2015 AT&T MLS All-Star Game on July 29. Besler signed a long-term Designated Player contract with the club in July 2014. His 211 appearances for Sporting KC in all competitions lead the current roster and rank eighth most all-time. A regular staple of the team’s backline, he has started 171 of his 176 MLS regular season appearances and landed Sporting KC Defender of the Year honors three times (2011-2013). Besler has earned 26 caps for the United States Men’s National Team since debuting in January 2013. He was on the U.S. roster for the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil alongside teammate Graham Zusi, becoming the first Kansan to play in the World Cup. He started all four matches in the tournament as the U.S. finished Group G runners-up behind eventual champion Germany and advanced to the Round of 16. He helped lead the U.S. to the 2013 CONCACAF Gold Cup title, starting all three matches in the knockout stage. 18

Now in his fourth season at Sporting KC, Dom Dwyer is coming off a breakout 2014 campaign in which he garnered Sporting KC Offensive Player of the Year and co-MVP honors. The Englishman set a single season club record with 22 goals, second most in MLS, and his 42 career goals in all competitions are fifth most in team history. Dwyer, who was an MLS All-Star in 2014 for the first time in his career, has scored 64 goals in all competitions since the start of 2013—42 for Sporting KC and 22 for former USL PRO affiliate Orlando City SC. He signed a contract extension with the club ahead of the 2015 campaign and leads the team this year with 14 goals in all competitions, including a club-record four goals in a 6-2 U.S. Open Cup win over FC Dallas on July 1. After making three appearances across all competitions during his rookie season, he notched 15 goals in 13 regular season games while on loan with Orlando City SC in 2013 to set USL PRO’s single-season scoring record at the time. He added four goals in the USL PRO final to earn championship MVP honors. Dwyer won two national championships at Tyler (Texas) Junior College (2009, 2010), where he was the national junior college player of the year after scoring 37 goals as a sophomore. Moving on to South Florida in 2011, he scored 16 goals in 21 games.

Sporting KC’s second Homegrown Player in club history, defender Kevin Ellis is coming off a 2014 campaign in which he made 21 MLS appearances, including his playoff debut. He finished 2014 with three assists in league play, tied for third most in the team, while splitting time between the right back and center back positions. The 24-year-old has continued his unlikely rise in 2015, registering career highs in MLS with 20 starts and three goals, tied for most among MLS defenders this season. Now in his fifth season with the club, Ellis developed in the Sporting KC Academy while attending Oak Park High School before playing collegiately at Barton County Community College in 2009-10. He scored his first competitive goal for the club last March, sparking a 1-0 win over Cruz Azul (Mexico) in the 2013-14 CONCACAF Champions League quarterfinal first leg at Sporting Park.

Espinoza made 57 appearances and scored three goals in all competitions for Wigan Athletic, including eight in the 2013-14 UEFA Europa League. He also recorded a 90-minute shift in Wigan’s 1-0 win over Manchester City in the 2013 FA Cup Final.

Now in his fifth Major League Soccer season, Benny Feilhaber has reached MLS career-highs with eight goals and 14 assists in 2015.

He was named Etihad Airways MLS Player of the Month for April and has recorded a single-season club record 19 assists in all competitions. Feilhaber turned professional in 2005 with Hamburg (Germany) after two seasons at UCLA. He moved to Derby County of the English Premier League in 2007 and Danish club AGF Aarhus in 2008 before signing with the New England Revolution in 2011. Acquired by Sporting KC prior to the 2013 season, he has made 104 appearances in all competitions for the club with 18 goals and 35 assists. A member of the United States Men’s National Team, Feilhaber has earned 41 caps with two goals since debuting in 2007.

Sporting KC signed goalkeeper Tim Melia in December 2014. He enters his sixth MLS season in 2015 after previously representing Real Salt Lake (2010-2011) and Chivas USA (2012-2014), where he backed up MLS All-Stars Nick Rimando (RSL) and Dan Kennedy (Chivas USA). He made his Sporting KC debut on May 3, shutting out Chicago in a 1-0 result for the first clean sheet and first win of his MLS career. After recording six saves in a 1-0 win over Seattle on June 6, he became the first goalkeeper in Kansas City history to go unbeaten in his first six MLS appearances for the club. On July 12, he then became the first keeper in MLS history to record six shutouts in his first nine MLS matches for a new club. He boasts a 13-5-4 record for Sporting KC in all competitions this season. Melia’s professional career began in 2008 with the Rochester Rhinos in the USL First Division. In 2010, he joined Real Salt Lake and spent part of the season on loan in the USL Second Division with the Charleston Battery. He helped lead Charleston to a first place finish in the regular season standings and eventually the league title with eight saves in the championship match. Melia was a member of Chivas USA from 2012-2014, making 18 saves in six MLS appearances. He most recently served as a League Pool Goalkeeper, earning emergency call-ups from MLS Cup Playoff participants Sporting KC (August), FC Dallas (October) and D.C. United (November) in late 2014.

He scored his first goal for the club in the U.S. Open Cup on Aug. 12 and recorded the first two assists of his MLS career in a 4-3 win over Vancouver on Aug. 15. Mustivar began his professional career as a teenager with SC Bastia in France’s Ligue 2 during the 2008-09 and 2009-10 seasons. He then moved to FC Petrolul Ploiesti and played each of the past three seasons in Romania’s Liga I. He recorded 61 league appearances with two goals in addition to playing eight matches in the UEFA Europa League. He started in Petrolul’s triumph in the 2012-13 Romanian Cup Final.

Eighth-year veteran Chance Myers enters 2015 as Sporting KC’s longest tenured player. The No. 1 overall selection in the 2008 MLS SuperDraft has played 156 matches for the club in all competitions, recording four goals and 17 assists from the wing back position. He made his 2015 debut on June 16 in the U.S. Open Cup fourth round, recording his first appearance since May 2014 after recovering from an Achilles injury. He tallied the game-winning assist in his first MLS match of the season on June 27, landing MLSsoccer.com Team of the Week honors. Myers eclipsed 30 MLS appearances in both 2011 and 2012 as a regular starter, and after making a career-high 31 MLS starts in 2013 (including playoffs), was the top-rated outside back on the MLS Castrol Index. He led MLS with 91 successful crosses from open play (including playoffs) between 2011 and 2013 before missing most of 2014 through injury. Myers signed a new contract with the club last year after joining the U.S. Men’s National Team for the first time in his career as a member of Jurgen Klinsmann’s January Camp in 2014. He previously played for the U.S. U-18, U-20 and U-23 youth national teams.

Sporting KC’s most experienced MLS player with 252 league appearances (including playoffs), Paulo Nagamura is in his fourth season with the club. Since arriving ahead of the 2012 campaign, he has recorded seven goals and six assists in 98 games across all competitions. Nagamura scored the game-tying and game-winning goals in the 87th and 94th minutes of a 4-3 win over Vancouver Whitecaps FC on Aug. 15 as Sporting KC came from two goals behind after the 80th minute to complete one of the greatest regular season comebacks in MLS history. A veteran presence in the midfield, he converted penalty kicks in shootouts following the 2012 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup Final and 2013 MLS Cup Final. The Brazilian began his career with Sao Paulo FC and Arsenal FC in England before coming to the United States to play for the LA Galaxy in 2005, winning the MLS Cup and Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup in his first season. He has also played for Toronto FC (2007) and Chivas USA (2007-2011) in MLS, becoming an MLS All-Star in 2009.

He led MLS through Week 6 with 30 interceptions and was nominated for Eithad Airways MLS Player of the Month for March after scoring twice and anchoring a backline that posted two shutouts.

A regular fixture at left back, he is the only player on the team to start at least 30 regular season games in each of the last three seasons. Sinovic missed more than three months in 2015 with a concussion before returning to the lineup on Aug. 29. Drafted in 2010 by the New England Revolution, he joined Sporting KC in 2011 and has started 148 of his 150 total appearances for the club in all competitions. He scored his first professional goal in the 2012 MLS Cup Playoffs and registered the second of his career in the 2013 postseason against his former team, helping Sporting KC prevail in the decisive leg of the 2013 Eastern Conference Semifinals. Sinovic received his first call-up to the United States Men’s National Team ahead of the 2014 USMNT January camp.

A seventh-year veteran for Sporting KC, Graham Zusi has garnered MLS All-Star (20122015), MLS Best XI (2012-2013) and MLS Breakout Player of the Year (2011) honors in addition to receiving a 2012 MLS MVP nomination. The winger is the only MLS player with at least five goals and at least seven assists in each of the last four regular seasons. He has earned Sporting KC MVP honors each of the last three years (twice a co-MVP) and has led the club in assists every year since 2011. He was named to the All-Star Fan XI ahead of the 2015 AT&T MLS All-Star Game on July 29 and is the only player to appear in each of the last four MLS All-Star games. Zusi signed a long-term Designated Player contract with the team in July 2014. Since 2011, he is third in MLS with 393 chances created and second with 378 successful crosses/corners (including playoffs). His 53 career assists in all competitions are third most in club history. Zusi has earned 32 caps for the United States Men’s National Team since debuting in January 2012, recording three goals and six assists. He was on the U.S. roster for the 2014 FIFA World Cup, playing in all four matches at the tournament. In the group stage, he provided the game-winning assist in a 2-1 win over Ghana before adding another assist in a 2-2 draw with Portugal. He played in his first CONCACAF Gold Cup this summer, starting two matches as the U.S. finished in fourth place.

Sporting KC Coach Bios | Sept. 18, 2015 vs. FC Dallas | SportingKC.com/Game-Notes Manager | 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 enters his seventh season as Sporting Kansas City Manager in 2015. He is the team’s second-longest serving manager and his 110 coaching victories in all competitions are the most club history. During his tenure, he has won two major trophies – the 2012 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup and the 2013 MLS Cup championship – as well as two MLS Eastern Conference regular season titles (2011, 2012). He is the second coach to lead Sporting KC to four 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 87 regular season wins top the club’s all-time chart and rank eighth 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. Vermes oversees all soccer operations for Sporting KC, including the active roster and the Sporting KC Juniors program. Vermes, an original member of Major League Soccer, 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.

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. 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.

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.

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

Vermes was an integral part of a young U.S. team at the 1990 World Cup in Italy, where he nearly scored a sensational goal 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 Figueras of the Spanish Second Division.

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.

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.

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.

Vermes joined Kansas City in 2000 for what would be the most successful seasons 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 184 MLS matches and playing more than 16,000 minutes. He was nominated on the players’ ballot for the National Soccer Hall of Fame from 2007-2012. In 2013, Vermes was inducted into the National Soccer Hall of Fame. Year

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.

Assistant Coach | John Pascarella Assistant Coach John Pascarella played professionally for nine seasons before beginning his coaching career in 1998 at the University of Maryland. Pascarella played club soccer with Sporting Kansas City Technical Director Peter Vermes. His playing experience took him to Peru before he returned to the United States to play in the A-League and MLS.

Fitness Coach | Mateus Manoel

Once his playing career was over, Pascarella began coaching as a member of Sasho Cirovski’s staff at Maryland. He then went on to work in Northern Virginia youth soccer circles as a high school coach and Olympic Development Program coach before becoming the Head Coach and Technical Director of the Northern Virginia Royals of the USL’s Premier Development League for two seasons.

Mateus Manoel is in his sixth season with Sporting Kansas City as Head Fitness Coach. His responsibilities cover all aspects of sport performance and science for the team, including strength and conditioning, injury prevention, field practices, nutrition, fitness monitoring (training load and readiness), player re-adaptation following rehab and recovery.

Pascarella joined Kansas City’s technical staff in 2009 and was a goalkeeper and fitness coach until 2011, when he became an assistant.

In the summer of 2010, Manoel was an Assistant Fitness Coach for the U.S. Men’s National Soccer Team during the FIFA World Cup in South Africa. He had formerly served as the Head Fitness Coach for the Mexican Men’s National Team in 2009, working with renowned coach Sven-Goran Eriksson. During 2007 and 2008, Manoel held a position with Athletes’ Performance in the Home Depot Center in Los Angeles, where he worked with professional athletes from a variety of sports, including NFL, NHL, MLB and MLS (Chivas USA and LA Galaxy). Previously, he had assisted with strength and conditioning for D.C. United from the MLS, while concurrently holding the position of Sports Performance Director with Velocity Sports Performance in Alexandria, Virginia. Manoel holds a Master’s degree in Exercise Physiology from George Washington University, where he was also responsible for the strength and conditioning needs of the Colonials Men’s Varsity Soccer Team. He also holds a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology from the University of Maryland - College Park and is a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist through the National Strength and Conditioning Association. Manoel was born in Brazil and is fluent in both Portuguese and Spanish.

INJURY REPORT MAURO DIAZ – MID – RIGHT QUAD TIGHTNESS – QUESTIONABLE DAN KENNEDY – GK – RIGHT KNEE STRAIN – QUESTIONABLE BAKARY SOUMARE – DEF – CONCUSSION SYMPTOMS – QUESTIONABLE VICTOR ULLOA – MID – HYPEREXTENDED RIGHT KNEE – QUESTIONABLE STEPHEN KEEL – DEF – RIGHT QUAD STRAIN – QUESTIONABLE OPPONENTS’ FORM Sporting saw its winless streak extended to five games with a fourth loss in that time, after a 3‐1 defeat by Orlando City SC on Sunday, Sept. 13 at the Citrus Bowl. Benny Feilhaber collected an assist on the SKC goal, moving into a tie in the MLS assist standings with 14 for the season. RUBBER MATCH FCD and SKC are meeting for the third time this season. K. Nemeth, B. Feilhaber, Kevin Ellis and Graham Zusi all scored as Sporting cruised to a 4‐0 win May 29 at Sporting Park. Blas Perez scored on either side of halftime and Fabian Castillo put the match away with a late goal as FC Dallas claimed a 3‐1 win March 14 at Toyota Stadium. The wins are the first for either team in the all‐time series since 2012, when Sporting won 2‐1 in Kansas City. The last FCD victory had come in 2011, a 3‐2 at Sporting Park on Aug. 27. 27 GAMES IN FC Dallas (14‐8‐5, 47 points) is five points ahead of where it was last season, when the team recorded 42 points through its first 27 games. The 2014 team ended the season with 54 points, the most in franchise history. SEPTEMBER With a 3‐0 win in Columbus on Sept. 6, and a 2‐1 victory against New York City FC on Sept. 12, FC Dallas is 2‐0‐0 this month. The franchise finished the month of September 2010 with a record of 2‐0‐3, but recorded the most points in 2009 when the club went 3‐1‐1 (10 points). CLEAN SHEETS FC Dallas is one of only three teams in MLS to have had three different players record a shutout this season. Philadelphia has had four while Dallas and LA have had three. This is the first time in franchise history that FCD has had three different goalkeepers record a shutout in a single season. The team is tied for third in MLS in shutouts this year with 10. It is the most Dallas has had in a season since Kevin Hartman recorded 13 in 2011. FIVES This is the first season since 2005 (Ruiz 11, Roberto Mina 7, Ronnie O’Brien 6, Ramon Nunez 5, Eddie Johnson 5) that FC Dallas has had five players with five or more goals (Castillo 9, Diaz 5, Tesho 5, Barrios 5, Perez 5). ONE GOAL AGAINST FC Dallas has only suffered one loss when giving up a single goal in a match this season. FC Dallas lost 1‐0 to Whitecaps FC on Aug. 22. The loss gives Dallas a 6‐1‐2 record (5‐0‐0 at Toyota Stadium, 1‐1‐2 on the road) when allowing one goal. KEY COMPETITOR Three of Dallas’ last 11 matches are against Vancouver. Since 2011, FC Dallas is 7‐3‐2 against the Whitecaps with a spotless, 5‐0‐0 record at Toyota Stadium. Dallas has outscored Vancouver 18‐11 in those 12 matches. Dallas has outscored the ‘Caps 5‐0 in the final 15 minutes of matches, all‐time.

AGAINST THE EAST FC Dallas went 7‐2‐1 against the Eastern Conference this season. All seven of FC Dallas’ remaining matches are against Western Conference opponents. FIRST GOAL USUALLY WINS FCD has a 13‐1‐2 record this season when scoring first. Dallas’ only loss was a 2‐1 defeat to the LA Galaxy on Aug. 15. TESHO AND TEX Tesho and David Texeira have been paired together up front four times this season. The Canadian and Uruguayan have a record of 2‐1‐1. Both of the wins have come in the last two games (Sept. 6 and Sept 12). HOMEGROWN DEPTH Dallas’ Homegrown players logged a league high 4,607 minutes or 14% of the team’s total minutes in 2014 (61GP, 50GS). Dallas is leading the charge in MLS again this season with 5,289 minutes (19.7%) played by Homegrown players Victor Ulloa, Moises Hernandez, Kellyn Acosta, Alejandro Zendejas, Coy Craft and Jesse Gonzalez. The New England Revolution rank second with 3,802 minutes played. Dallas’ Homegrowns have logged 1,400+ more minutes than any other team in MLS this season. THE HOMEGROWN RECORD FC Dallas surpassed its own Homegrown record for minutes played in a season (4,607 in 2014) on Aug. 29 (4,733). Homegrown goalkeeper Jesse Gonzalez took over for an injured Dan Kennedy against Vancouver on Aug. 22. The added minutes helped put FCD over the top. PERFECT MONTH FC Dallas went 4‐0‐0 in July. It was the first perfect month (minimum four games with no ties) for FC Dallas since May 1997. CASTILLO TRIO When Fabian Castillo has three or more shots, FC Dallas is 10‐2‐2. When he fails to log three or more in a match, FCD is 3‐6‐2. The 2015 MLS All‐Star scored his ninth goal of the season vs. RSL on Aug. 29. He earned his first cap th with the Colombian National Team (ranked 4 in the World) on Sept 8. PORTERO JOVEN Homegrown goalkeeper Jesse Gonzalez, at 20 years and 89 days old became the youngest player to start a match in goal in franchise history on Aug. 22 at Vancouver. In his second match, Gonzalez made four saves to become the youngest player in franchise history to record a win and a shutout in goal. He is the third‐youngest goalkeeper behind B. Hamid (19) and Z. MacMath (20) to record a shutout. He is 3‐1‐0 with two shutouts this season. FIRST START In Rolando Escobar’s first start (vs. LA on Aug. 15) the Panamanian created three chances (’66 to Perez, ’82 to Castillo and ‘90+4 to Perez) and had two scoring opportunities (‘2 from Perez and ’80 from Akindele) of his own. HEATING UP Michael Barrios has scored four goals and an assist in his last seven matches (630 minutes of action). In Barrios first 90‐minute appearance of the season, he netted a brace in a 4‐1 win against Portland on July 25. He hasn’t come off the pitch since. He has played 90 minutes in each of the last seven games.
