LAST TIME OUT |

Minnesota United FC vs Portland Timbers | September 22, 2019 | Providence Park, Portland, OR | MLS Regular Season

Loons Claim First Point in Portland Led by a heroic goalkeeping display by Vito Mannone, Minnesota United would take its first point ever at Providence Park in a 0-0 draw with the Portland Timbers. The opening half was a wide-open contest with action on both ends, but neither side able to pose a consistent threat. The Timbers put on the pressure in the second half, forcing the Loons to play on the counter to get any chances. Robin Lod had the best chance of the game for Minnesota, heading a Jan Gregus free kick off the crossbar. Kevin Molino had a breakaway in the closing moments, but couldn’t beat the goalkeeper with his shot. The goal frame saved the Loons on several occasions, but alert defending and brave goalkeeping would keep the clean sheet.

QUINTERO

Minnesota Looks to Lock Up Playoff Spot Minnesota United will get a second chance at securing a spot in the MLS Cup Playoffs on Wednesday night against Sporting Kansas City at Allianz Field. A last minute goal for SKC snatched points away from Minnesota in the last meeting between the clubs at Children’s Mercy Park back in August. However, the Loons handed Sporting KC a big loss in an Open Cup clash in Saint Paul and will try to replicate that result on Wednesday. Minnesota is currently riding an eightgame unbeaten streak at Allianz Field, and would love to lock up its first trip to the postseason in front of its home fans. Though not mathematically eliminated, SKC can still shake up the playoff race as it tries to snap a three-game losing streak and attempt to spoil the Loons’ playoff ambitions.

MINNESOTA UNITEDUNITED NEWS AND NOTES 2015 MINNESOTA FC GOAL MAP Mannone and Gregus Represent MNUFC on Team of the Week Minnesota United put up a heroic defensive performance to secure a 0-0 draw on the road against Portland Timbers. For their efforts in keeping the clean sheet, goalkeeper Vito Mannone and midfielder Jan Gregus have earned spots in the MLS Team of the Week for Week 29. Featuring in the Team of the Week for the fifth time this season, Mannone set a new club record with 11 saves against the Timbers. His quick reactions kept the Loons in the game and earned him his 11th clean sheet of the year as the squad secured a vital road point in the quest for a playoff spot. Minnesota Unite Climbs Back to Third with Point from Portland Gregus features on the bench this week, last appearing in the Team of the Week back in Week 17. The Slovakia international was the set piece specialist for the Loons and provided some tempting services to create chances for his teammates. He completed 39 passes in the opposing half, including three successful crosses. Defensively, Gregus had a pair of interceptions, a tackle and a clearing header. Minnesota Unite Climbs Back to Third with Point from Portland Minnesota United came into an early afternoon game against the Portland Timbers at Providence Park with a chance to clinch a spot in the 2019 MLS Cup Playoffs for the first time in the club’s MLS history. Although less mathematically impactful, the game was was no less significant for a Timbers squad that has struggled to score at home recently. While both teams generated good chances with both relying heavily on the counterattack, neither team could ultimately pull away in a 0-0 result with the Loons happy to come away with a point and climb back up to third in the Western Conference with three games remaining. “I thought we rode our luck at times,” said Head Coach Adrian Heath. “We turned the ball over too cheaply at times and then, on the reverse side, I thought that if we would have played with the quality that I know we possess, we could’ve won the game because we had too many really good opportunities and [we] didn’t really come back with the final ball or the really decisive pass. It’s a difficult place to come and I thought Vito [Mannone] was excellent. Overall, satisfied with a point.”

Michael Boxall on Defensive Improvement in the Final Stretch “I think once we got the new players, that we brought in this season, familiar with how each other play, I think it kind of clicked from there. As you say, we’ve really gone from strength to strength at the back but it’s not just a back four and Vito thing. We see Mason [Toye] and Darwin [Quintero] on the weekend doing massive shifts to come back and help us out so it’s a full 11-man thing.” Boxall on What it Would Mean to Clinch a Playoff Spot at Home “I think the way we’ve gone about things, on and off the field, I think we expect it. We expected it at the beginning of the season with the players we brought in. We’d like to have done it on the weekend but what’s better than doing it at Allianz Field in front of our fans?” MLS Matchups Announced for FS1 Doubleheader on Sept. 29 With only two weeks remaining in the MLS regular season, urgency and star power will have heightened implications on the final seedings of the Audi 2019 MLS Cup Playoffs picture during the FS1 and FOX Deportes doubleheader this Sunday, Sept. 29. The second-to-last week of competition will feature intraconference matchups with every game in the Eastern Conference kicking off at 4:00 p.m. CT before all games in the Western Conference follow at 6:30 p.m. CT. Then at 7:30 p.m. ET, the action continues in the Western Conference with leading scorer Carlos Vela and the top-ranked Los Angeles Football Club on the road at No. 3 Minnesota United FC. Western Conference: No. 3 MNUFC vs. No. 1 LAFC (7:30 p.m.) • LAFC remain one win away from securing the Supporters’ Shield for the best record in MLS this regular season. • Carlos Vela – with 29 goals in 28 games – has a narrow, two-goal lead in the very close race to the MLS Golden Boot presented by Audi. • Minnesota United could clinch a spot in the Audi 2019 MLS Cup Playoffs and are looking to remain in position to host a home playoff game.

Adrian Heath on Now Expecting to Win on the Road “I think the one thing that we did in the summer was [that] we addressed quite a lot of things that needed addressing. We bought a load of experience. We bought really good talented footballers but more importantly, we brought people in who are used to winning. Jan Gregus was in Copenhagen, winning the league every year. Osvaldo [Alonso], Seattle [Sounders], playoffs every year, expected to go to the final. Ike [Opara] has won the league, he’s won Open Cups. We addressed Vito Mannone, played in the Premier League. The character is not going to be an issue. This team is going to be ready for Wednesday, I’m sure.” Heath on Securing a Spot in the Playoffs in Front of the MNUFC Fans “I think it will be nice to do it at home. The relationship between the supporters and the players at the Allianz has been incredible. I know they’ll bring their A game because we’ll need them to. We want the supporters to be as noisy and as loud as they have been all year and hopefully we can give them a performance that warrants that support because it would be a really big moment for us to clinch at home.” 5

ABOUT MAJOR LEAGUE SOCCER Minnesota United FC plays in North America’s top professional soccer league, Major League Soccer (MLS). The league features 24 teams from across the United States and Canada. After a successful bid to host the FIFA World Cup in 1994, the United States Soccer Federation (USSF) founded MLS to bring a top-level soccer league back to the country for the first time since 1984, when the original NASL folded. The league was set to begin play in 1996 with 10 teams: Colorado Rapids, Columbus Crew (SC), D.C. United, Dallas Burn (FC Dallas), Kansas City Wiz (Sporting Kansas City), Los Angeles Galaxy, New England Revolution, NY/NJ MetroStars (New York Red Bulls), San Jose Clash (Earthquakes) and Tampa Bay Mutiny. The league’s first game was played on April 6, 1996 as the San Jose Clash played D.C. United in front of 31,000 fans at Spartan Stadium. The league drew large crowds in its opening season, pulling star power from around North America and building on the excitement of the 1994 FIFA World Cup. As MLS has continued to grow, clubs have begun moving out of shared American football venues and into soccer-specific stadium, led by Columbus Crew (SC), who moved into the soccer-specific MAPFRE Stadium in 1999. Currently, 20 teams play in soccer-specific venues. The league is split into the Eastern and Western Conferences. Each team plays 34 games during the season. Teams play all conference opponents twice, once at home and once on the road, and each team in the other conference once, with an even balance of home and away games. The top seven teams in each conference at the end of the year qualify for the MLS Cup Playoffs. Starting in 2019, the league has adopted a new single-elimination format for the entirety of the MLS Cup Playoffs. The top seven teams in each conference qualify for postseason, with the regular-season conference champions receiving a first-round bye. The second through seventh seeds will play the opening round games, with the highest seed hosting games throughout the tournament. The winners will move on to join the oneseed teams in the conference semifinals. The winner of each conference championship will move on the the MLS Cup Final. The team with the best regular season record will host the final.

Height: 5’11” Weight: 155 Birthdate: 11/11/1985 Hometown: San Cristobal, Cuba Previous Club: Seattle Sounders FC Acquired: Signed 1/10/2019 Cuban midfielder, Alonso joined MNUFC January 10, 2019 after spending ten seasons with the Seattle Sounders. A proven leader, MLS Cup Champion and four-time MLS All-Star, the “Honey Badger” brings a wealth of MLS experience and tenacity to the Loons’ midfield. In 2018, he started 21 games in 25 game appearances, and for the sixth time in his 10-year career, recorded three assists during the regular season.

#15 MICHAEL BOXALL | DEFENDER

Height: 6’2” Weight: 200 Birthdate: 8/18/1988 Hometown: Auckland, New Zealand Previous Club: SuperSport United Acquired: Signed 7/12/2017 New Zealand international Boxall joined MNUFC on July 12, 2017 after representing his country at the 2017 FIFA Confederations Cup in Russia. In his first full season with MNUFC, Boxall started all 32 games of 2018 and scored his first goal with the club on Aug. 11 against LA Galaxy and his second – the winner – in a 3-2 result over Portland on Sept. 22.

Height: 5’5” Weight: 128 Birthdate: 8/17/2000 Hometown: Palmitas, Uruguay Previous Club: Danubio FC Acquired: Transfer 8/7/2019 The young attacking midfielder joins MNUFC after spending his first two professional seasons with Uruguay’s first division team Danubio FC, helping lead them to finish fifth in the league during the 2018–19 season, in 20 game appearances across 1114 minutes. Internationally, Chacón has played for the Uruguay National Team at every level, making a total of 48 game appearances and scoring two goals for the U17 team, including one in the U17 2017 South American Championship against the Bolivia U17 team on March 2, 2017.

#99 ABU DANLADI | FORWARD

He had a superb debut season with the Loons, tallying eight goals — including four winners — and three assists in 27 games (15 starts) and finishing second in MLS Rookie of the Year voting.

#MINvSKC: BY THE NUMBERS

Sporting Kansas City travels north this week to take on Minnesota United FC at Allianz Field on Wednesday night. It’ll be Sporting KC’s first-ever regular-season visit to the newly opened stadium, where Minnesota has gone 9-1-5 in 2019. Sporting has a commanding lead in the all-time series against Minnesota United, going 4-1-2 - however Sporting is a winless 0-1-2 on the road to go along with a 4-0-0 mark at home. Sporting hosted the Loons at Children’s Mercy Park just over a month ago on Aug. 22. With the game seemingly headed for a goalless draw, Erik Hurtado popped up to net a late winner in the 88th minute. In 2018, Sporting’s two home matches resulted in a 4-1 victory on June 3, with Daniel Salloi, Wan Kuzain and Cristian Lobato netting in the first half before Diego Rubio added another late in the day. The later clash took place on Aug. 25, 2018, with Yohan Croizet and Rubio tallying after the halftime interval in a 2-0 win. Sporting’s last visit to Minneapolis saw the two sides split the points with a 1-1 draw on May 20, 2018 at TCF Bank Stadium. Khiry Shelton thundered home Johnny Russell’s corner with a powerful header in the eighth minute for his first goal for the club, only for Darwin Quintero to equalize 12 minutes later. #MINvSKC: Recent Meetings (SKC leads 4-1-2 in regular season)

Sporting KC Game Notes | September 25, 2019 at Minnesota United FC | SportingKC.com/Game-Notes THE HOME STRETCH

SPORTING KANSAS CITY NEWS AND NOTES

PITCH BLACK SET FOR SEPT. 27

Sporting Kansas City is in the midst of a three-game losing streak for the first time this season following defeats on the road to the Portland Timbers (Sept. 7) and the LA Galaxy (Sept. 15) before a home loss to the Colorado Rapids on Saturday night coming on the heels of a three-game home winning streak from Aug. 17-31. Sporting can still mathematically qualify for the postseason, but currently sits seven points out of the seventh and last playoff spot in the Western Conference with just nine points left up for grabs.

Sporting KC’s annual awards night, Pitch Black, is slated for this Friday, Sept. 27 at Children’s Mercy Park. Fan voting is now open for these categories: Most Valuable Player, Offensive Player of the Year, Defensive Player of the Year and Goal of the Year. In 2018, Ilie Sanchez was named Most Valuable Player, Johnny Russell was voted Offensive Player of the Year, Tim Melia and Graham Zusi split the Defensive Player of the Year title, Felipe Gutierrez was named Newcomer of the Year, while Yohan Croizet’s Open Cup stunner against Dallas was named Goal of the Year.

However, there is a scenario where Sporting is eliminated from postseason contention on Wednesday night when the side visits Minnesota United FC. With 37 points in the bag and three matches remaining, Sporting must win out to have any chance of breaking into the MLS Cup Playoffs. In order for Sporting to preserve their playoff chances heading into Sunday’s home finale against Portland, Sporting must win against Minnesota while either Portland or San Jose lose or draw on Wednesday night in their respective home matches.

Sporting will also honor award winners in the following categories: Humanitarian of the Year, Swope Park Rangers MVP, Academy Player of the Year, Sporting Club Network Club of the Year and Golden Boot.

GERSO BACK ON THE SCORESHEET

Sporting Kansas City winger Gerso Fernandes got himself back on the scoresheet in Saturday night’s 3-2 loss to the Colorado Rapids at Children’s Mercy Park. The pacy forward got on the end of Graham Zusi’s low cross in just the third minute to convert Sporting’s quickest goal out of the gates this season.

Saturday night’s defeat to the Rapids extended Sporting’s non-tying streak to 16 games - dating back to a 2-2 draw with Toronto on June 7. Since that draw, Sporting has gone 7-9-0 in regular-season play, setting a new record for the longest run of games without a draw in club history.

Gerso’s statline in the 2019 regular season reads two goals and six assists in 22 games - however when including the Bissau-Guinean’s form across six games in the Concacaf Champions League, he has seven goals and seven assists on the year. Since joining Sporting ahead of the 2017 campaign, Gerso has 23 goals and 17 assists across 103 appearances in all competitions.

Sporting has a strong record against the third-place Loons since Minnesota joined MLS as an expansion side in 2017 - posting a 4-1-2 record with a perfect 4-0-0 record at home and a winless 0-1-2 record in Minnesota. Sporting also fell to the Loons in the U.S. Open Cup Fourth Round in June of this year.

Gerso’s goal extended a quirky stat for Sporting in 2019, as it was the side’s 25th leftfooted goal of the regular season. No other club except LAFC has 20 or more left-footed strikes this year, and no squad has accounted for a greater percentage of its scoring via the left foot than Sporting. Peter Vermes’ side has seen 54.3% of their goals come from a left foot, while LAFC has 52.6%. No other team has more than 37%.

SPORTING PAYS FIRST-EVER MLS VISIT TO ALLIANZ FIELD

Sporting Kansas City hits the road for the club’s penultimate road game in the 2019 MLS regular season with a first-ever MLS visit to newly built Allianz Field in St. Paul, Minnesota where the side will take on Minnesota United FC. Sporting’s first visit to Allianz Field came in the U.S. Open Cup Fourth Round on June 12 - suffering a 4-1 defeat and early elimination from the tournament.

GUTIERREZ NETS BRACE vs. LA, TAKES SEASON TALLY TO 12 Sporting Kansas City midfielder Felipe Gutierrez continued his excellent form in 2019 with another two goals in the defeat to the LA Galaxy at Dignity Health Sports Park on Sept. 15. Gutierrez gave Sporting the lead with a composed finish from close range in the first half before tallying a consolation goal in the 85th minute with a powerful deflected effort from distance.

The two sides have met once in MLS play in 2019, with Sporting squeaking out a dramatic 1-0 victory at Children’s Mercy Park on August 22. With the game seemingly headed for a scoreless draw, Johnny Russell slipped Erik Hurtado through on goal and he rounded Vito Mannone before firing into the empty net to clinch it for the home side in the 88th minute.

With his brace in LA, Gutierrez took his team-leading goal total to 12 on the year. In doing so, he moved into a tie among the league’s top midfield scoring leaders in 2019. Only Nani of Orlando City SC has as many goals this season as a listed midfielder.

In 2018, Sporting took the season series with a 1-0-1 record. Sporting first visited TCF Bank Stadium on May 20 and saw out a 1-1 draw following Khiry Shelton’s early header and Darwin Quintero’s well-taken equalizer later in the first half. The return fixture at Children’s Mercy Park saw Sporting claim a 2-0 victory behind goals from Yohan Croizet and Diego Rubio.

In addition, Gutierrez’s combative nature combined with his scoring prowess has seen him become the first player in MLS history during the Opta era (2010-present) to record at least 10 goals and win 50 tackles in a single regular season. Gutierrez is also tied for fourth in club history with five multi-goal games, only trailing Dom Dwyer (10), Vitalis Takawira (8) and Preki (7). He’s also fourth in MLS this season with four multi-goal games, trailing Zlatan Ibrahimovic (8), Josef Martinez (6) and Carlos Vela (6).

Sporting is a dominant 4-1-2 in the regular season against Minnesota - though that record includes a perfect 4-0-0 mark at home, and a winless 0-1-2 record in Minnesota.

ELIMINATION SCENARIOS

Sporting Kansas City heads into Wednesday night’s clash with Minnesota United FC at Allianz Field with the club’s eight-season playoff streak hanging by a thread. Sporting needs to win their final three games of the regular season to stand any chance of securing a ninth consecutive berth in the postseason, and would need some help along the way.

Gutierrez has enjoyed an excellent campaign for Sporting, adding four assists to go along with his team-leading 12 goals across all competitions. Since joining the club, Gutierrez has 19 goals and eight assists in 60 appearances (all comps).

RANGERS ENJOY THREE-GAME UNBEATEN STREAK

In the midst of a difficult season in the USL Championship, the Swope Park Rangers have embarked on a three-game unbeaten streak to climb off the foot of the overall USL Championship standings.

Sporting could even be eliminated with a win on Wednesday, should Portland and San Jose also win their home games the same night. Sporting can only survive to the weekend with the following set of outcomes: • Sporting must win at Minnesota United FC, AND • Portland must lose or tie at home vs. New England, OR • San Jose must lose or tie at home vs. Philadelphia

The Rangers are 2-0-1 over their last three contests, posting shutouts in all three. The Rangers saw out a 0-0 draw with the Charleston Battery at home on Sept. 11 before topping playoff-bound North Carolina FC at Children’s Mercy Park 1-0 on Sept. 14. The Rangers continued that fine form with their first road win of the season - cruising to a 3-0 victory over the Charlotte Independence on Saturday night.

SPORTING PARTS WAYS WITH CROIZET

Sporting Kansas City and midfielder Yohan Croizet have mutually agreed to part ways, the club announced on Monday. Croizet had not appeared for the club since the July 26 match against New York City FC at Yankee Stadium.

Key to the unbeaten run has been Sporting KC Academy forward Wilson Harris who has three goals in his last two games and six goals in his last seven games. The 19-year-old continued his hot streak with a pair of goals against Charlotte on Saturday night, scoring either side of halftime with composed finishes and give himself game-winning goals in back-to-back games.

Croizet recorded three goals and two assists in 20 MLS matches this season. The 27-year-old Frenchman ends his two-year stint at Sporting with eight goals and five assists in 62 competitive appearances after arriving from KV Mechelen in the Belgian top flight in late 2017.

This current mini-run of form puts the Rangers at 5-16-7 (22 points) on the season, sharing a spot on the foot of the Eastern Conference with Hartford Athletic, but two points ahead of the Tacoma Defiance in the West. Strangely, the Rangers are still alive in the race for the postseason, but would need to win out their final six games to stand any chance, with plenty of help along the way.

“We appreciate Yohan’s service to the club over the last two seasons and wish him the best of luck moving forward,” Sporting KC Manager and Sporting Director Peter Vermes said in a statement on Monday.

Sporting KC Game Notes | September 25, 2019 at Minnesota United FC | SportingKC.com/Game-Notes MLS ANNOUNCES ST. LOUIS EXPANSION

SPORTING KANSAS CITY NEWS AND NOTES

2026 WORLD CUP HEADING TO NORTH AMERICA

Major League Soccer Commissioner Don Garber officially announced on Aug. 20 that MLS has awarded an expansion team to the city of St. Louis. The team will begin MLS play in 2022 in a new soccer stadium located in the Downtown West district of St. Louis.

The United Bid of Canada, Mexico, and the United States was selected to host the 2026 FIFA World Cup on Wednesday, June 13, 2018 by the 68th FIFA Congress in Moscow. Kansas City is one of 23 Candidate Host Cities in the United Bid.

The owners of the St. Louis club include Enterprise Holdings Foundation president Carolyn Kindle Betz and six other female members of the Taylor family, making it the first female majority-owned club in MLS history, and one of few in professional sports. The ownership group is completed by Enterprise Holdings executive chairman Andy Taylor, and World Wide Technology CEO Jim Kavanaugh.

The vote, which occurred a day before the start of the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia, also marks the first time three nations have been selected to co-host a FIFA World Cup and the first time the FIFA World Cup will be played in North America in 32 years. The United Bid offers FIFA and its 211 Member Associations unity, certainty, and opportunity as they prepare to host the largest FIFA World Cup in history.

With the announcement comes an exciting opportunity for Kansas City and St. Louis to fuel their long-standing sports rivalry. Separated by 250 miles on Interstate-70, Sporting has faced USL Championship side Saint Louis FC once: claiming a 1-0 victory in the U.S. Open Cup at Children’s Mercy Park in 2015.

With the FIFA Congress decision to award the 2026 FIFA World Cup, to the federations of Canada, Mexico, and the United States, the three nations will jointly manage preparations for the 2026 FIFA World Cup until FIFA establishes their operations to manage the competition. Among other decisions, FIFA will make the final selection of host cities for the 2026 competition from the 23 candidates proposed in the United Bid.

Sporting has taken the field in St. Louis for exhibition matches during the club’s early days and later for a 2009 SuperLiga match against Mexican side Atlas.

Each of the United Bid’s 23 proposed stadiums are fully built, occupied and operational, ensuring long-term use following the 2026 World Cup. The United Bid has 150 existing world-class training facilities, millions of hotel rooms, and advanced infrastructure. The United Bid is expected to generate more than $14 billion in revenue and $11 billion in profits for FIFA, which will be shared with the 211 FIFA Member Associations, helping further develop and expand the game of football across the globe.

VERMES IN MIDST OF 11th SEASON

Now in his 11th season at the helm of Sporting KC, manager Peter Vermes looks to win more hardware and guide his side to yet another postseason appearance in 2019. Despite elimination from the Concacaf Champions League and the U.S. Open Cup, Sporting KC will still aim to win the MLS Cup.

PLAYOFF STREAK REACHES EIGHT SEASONS

Vermes is the longest tenured coach that is currently in charge of a team in MLS, having led Sporting KC since 2009 - one year longer than Ben Olsen has been at the helm at D.C. United. Vermes became the longest tenured coach in MLS when then LA Galaxy head coach Bruce Arena took the U.S. National Team job in late 2016.

In 2018, Sporting KC continued its impressive streak of postseason appearances, becoming just the sixth club in MLS history to make at least eight straight trips to the MLS Cup Playoffs, while Manager Peter Vermes is now just the third coach to lead the same team to eight straight playoff appearances. LONGEST MLS PLAYOFF STREAKS Club Seasons LA Galaxy 10 (1996-2005) Seattle Sounders FC 10 (2009-2018) *active New York Red Bulls 9 (2010-2018) *active Sporting KC 8 (2011-2018) *active LA Galaxy 8 (2009-2016) NE Revolution 8 (2002-2009) Real Salt Lake 7 (2008-2014)

With almost 10 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 fifth longest active run. Vermes has guided Sporting KC to four titles under his watch, winning three Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cups in 2012, 2015 and 2017, and the MLS Cup in 2013. His trophy haul ranks as the second highest among active MLS coaches - only trailing Toronto FC’s Greg Vanney’s five championships. On a local level, Vermes’ 11 years with SKC is the second longest tenure by a head coach in the history of major KC professional sports behind Super Bowl champion and Pro Football Hall of Famer Hank Stram, who was Chiefs head coach from 1963-1974.

VERMES VERBATIM

RECORD-SETTING 2018

See below for comments from Sporting KC Manager and Sporting Director Peter Vermes following the 3-2 loss to the Colorado Rapids at Children’s Mercy Park on Sept. 21.

Sporting Kansas City enjoyed a historic 2018 season that saw the club set new records in multiple attacking categories. Most notably, the club shattered the franchise’s all-time goalscoring record by tallying 65 goals in 34 games, eclipsing the 61 goals the then Kansas City Wizards tallied in their inaugural season in 1996.

Comments on the match: “We started off very well. We were in control of the game. We scored two very good goals based off the way we went at them. We knew where we were going to get our goals from and I think we were good about it. I think there was more to come, for sure. Unfortunately, we got the double yellow and the red. It was hard for us to hold on for 70 minutes. It was very difficult. At the same time, I’ve said this before, it’s not like we haven’t given up goals this season. So it’s not as if we’re going into the thing feeling really good about ourselves in that area of the field. We weren’t really confident. We didn’t do an adequate enough job to try to hold on all the way to the end. We had a chance to go up 3-0 and probably 4-0 even when we were down a man. We didn’t stick those two away. I’m not blaming the guys for that piece because we did enough in the game, 20 minutes in, to be up 2-0 like we were. We were in control of the game. The unfortunate thing is, like you know, the man down affected us a lot because we were in control of the game no doubt.”

As well as their overall goalscoring exploits, Sporting Kansas City also set new club records in five other offensive categories: Road Goals (31), Goal Difference (+25), Assists (69), Shots (583) and Corner Kicks (206). Peter Vermes’ side also found multiple goals in 25 of the club’s 40 matches in all competitions last season and was only shutout seven times. Sporting KC finished the regular season as the fourth highest scoring team in MLS with 65 goals, while the side scored 79 goals when including the MLS Cup Playoffs and U.S. Open Cup play. Sporting had 16 different goalscorers last year in MLS play - which was tied for the second highest number of goalscorers across a single squad this season. In 2018, SKC found goals from Daniel Salloi (14), Johnny Russell (10), Diego Rubio (10), Felipe Gutierrez (7), Gerso Fernandes (6), Ilie Sanchez (5), Ike Opara (3), Yohan Croizet (3), Roger Espinoza (3), Khiry Shelton (2), Graham Zusi (2), Jimmy Medranda (2), Cristian Lobato (2), Wan Kuzain Wan Kamal (1), Krisztian Nemeth (1) and Gianluca Busio (1).

On the ejection of Matt Besler: “It’s the turning point in the game. There were a lot of other things that were in the game that could have been dealt with, in my opinion, differently. I don’t have any decisionmaking in that stuff. Sometimes I think maybe I don’t know the game. Because I don’t know sometimes what a foul is. I don’t know sometimes what a yellow card is. I don’t know what sometimes is going on in the game anymore. Maybe I have to go talk with somebody and find out about some of these things because I really, really don’t understand some of the calls the kid made.”

The 6-0 triumph over Vancouver Whitecaps FC on April 20, 2018 tied club records for largest margin of victory and most goals scored in a competitive match. Sporting KC finished the year with 65 goals in 34 regular-season matches, having scored 40 in all of 2017. The last time Sporting KC hit six goals in an MLS match was on June 20, 1999.

Sporting KC Game Notes | September 25, 2019 at Minnesota United FC | 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 is in his 11th season as Sporting Kansas City Manager in 2019 and is the longest-tenured active head coach in MLS. He is the team’s longest-serving manager and his 178 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. 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 143 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 413 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 10 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 fifth 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, the Swope Park Rangers (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.

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 Figueras of the Spanish Second Division.

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 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.
