SPORTING KANSAS CITY vs CHICAGO FIRE SPORTING PARK, Kansas City, Kan.

May 3, 2015 (WEEK 9, MLS Game #85) 4 p.m. CT (ESPN2 / ESPN Deportes; TSN1)

Sporting Kansas City will look to get back to their winning ways when they face a suddenly ascendant Chicago Fire as the clubs face off Sunday afternoon at Sporting Park before an ESPN2 audience. Sporting have gone three games without a victory, coming back for a wild 4-4 draw last weekend at the Houston Dynamo. The Fire returned from a long layoff and won their third game on the trot last time out, netting the game’s only goal in a win against New York City FC. REFEREE: Jose Carlos Rivero.

This is the only league meeting between the teams this season. The teams evenly split their season series a year ago. Each team won on their home ground; they also played

to a 1-1 draw at Sporting Park. The Fire haven’t won in Kansas City since 2012; SKC have two wins and two draws in the home meetings

since. Coaches record: Peter Vermes vs. CHI: P14 W4 L6 D4 … Frank Yallop vs. KC: P28 W13 L9 D6

SPORTING KANSAS CITY Sporting Kansas City saw their winless streak extended to three games, coming back for a point in a wild 4-4 draw with the Houston Dynamo on Saturday evening at BBVA Compass Stadium. Sporting are in a tie for fifth place in the Western Conference with 10 points from 8 matches. LAST MATCH

Sporting took the lead just three minutes into the game when Krisztian Nemeth picked up a loose ball and charged toward goal, firing home inside the right post from 25 yards out.

But the Dynamo had a 3-1 lead by just after halftime. First, a scuffed clearance landed in the path of Giles Barnes, and he sliced a half-volley past SKC goalkeeper Luis Marin to pull the game level in the 11th minute.

The Dynamo took the lead in first-half stoppage time when Will Bruin scored with a flick off the back of his head from a Brad Davis pinpoint corner kick. Then Barnes struck again less than a minute into the second half, driving up field and taking a shot from some 22 yards out that beat Marin to his right post.

But Sporting pulled level with goals in short order. First, in the 74th minute, Dom Dwyer pounced on an ill-advised back pass and slotted a shot into the open net after rounding Deric in the box. Then six minutes later, Benny Feilhaber converted a penalty after Dynamo defender Jermaine Taylor was ruled to have handled a Nemeth attempt on goal and referee Kevin Stott pointed to the spot.

The Dynamo again nosed in front in the 84th minute when Raul Rodriguez rushed the near post to head home a Davis free kick. But Feilhaber had the final answer deep in stoppage time, scoring his second of the night by driving home a shot from distance that sailed inside the left post.

SKC manager Peter Vermes made no changes to the team that saw the LA Galaxy hit for a late winner for a 2-1 victory at StubHub Center.

SPORTING KANSAS CITY (4-1-2-3): Luis Marin - Jalil Anibaba, Kevin Ellis (Connor Hallisey 90), Matt Besler, Marcel de Jong (Amadou Dia 63) - Servando Carrasco (Soni Mustivar 55) - Benny Feilhaber, Roger Espinoza - Graham Zusi, Dom Dwyer, Krisztian Nemeth.


TEAM NEWS Sporting saw their current winless run extended to three games, following back-to-back victories, their only two

wins of the season. SKC have not lost consecutive games this season. “We found the way to get back in the game, a couple of times. But, over the course of the game, we made way

too many mistakes over the course of 90 minutes and that's something you can't do at this level,” SKC manager Peter Vermes said.

It was the most goals Sporting have scored in a game in their 20-year history and failed to come away with a victory.

“In a lot of respects, we didn't deserve to get anything coming out of here,” Vermes said. “The only thing I'll say is that at that moment, during the course of the game, we were very good and we didn't give up.”

Benny Feilhaber had the first multiple-goal game of his MLS career, converting a penalty then hitting for the equalizer deep in stoppage time.

“Benny has the ability to be one of the best No. 10s in our league,” Vermes said. “When he's in form, like he is now, playing on both sides of the ball, a lot of things tend to come out that are part of his makeup. That will only get better if he continues to value those things that are important, and I think that's one of those reasons why he's in form at the moment.

Said Feilhaber: “I'm just trying to get closer to the goal. I think that's one of the things that I've consciously tried to improve in my game, get closer to the goal and be able to provide not only assists but get goals myself. … I'm trying to make my runs further up the field so I can connect with Dom and the other offensive players and just get in more dangerous areas.”

Krisztian Nemeth netted a goal for a second consecutive match, his third in the last four games (and his third in six total appearances this season).

Dom Dwyer scored his second goal of the season, his first since April 5. Dwyer has played every minute of every match this season.

Making a second consecutive start after missing two matches through injury, Graham Zusi recorded his first assist of the season, on the Feilhaber match-winner.

Sporting conceded two goals from set pieces, and have now allowed five goals from deadball opportunities among their 12 goals allowed on the season – tied with Philadelphia Union for most goals let in from set pieces.

“When you play like that, you're always going to get beat. That part of the equation was not good enough on our side. We have to be much better. Much better,” said Vermes. “ … (W)e were giving up way too many [set pieces, and there were some guys who lost their men, for sure.”

CHICAGO FIRE The Chicago Fire made it three wins in a row coming off a long layoff, getting the game’s only goal for a victory against New York City on Friday evening at Toyota Park. The Fire are in fifth place in the Eastern Conference with 9 points from 6 matches. LAST MATCH

The game's lone goal came in the 20th minute. NYCFC goalkeeper Ryan Meara failed to corral a wayward backpass near the endline, and in an attempt to keep the ball from going out for a corner, inadvertently spilled the ball right to David Accam, who calmly collected the loose ball and finished into an open net from the left.

Just three minutes later, Accam turned the screw again when he was dragged down from behind by NYCFC midfielder Andrew Jacobson as he was clear in on goal, and referee Ricardo Salazar showed a red card to reduce the visitors to 10 men.

Fire goalkeeper Sean Johnson recorded four saves in recording his second consecutive clean sheet. Fire head coach Frank Yallop made three changes to the team that claimed a 3-2 win against Toronto FC at

Toyota Park. Sean Johnson came in between the posts in place of Jon Busch, Matt Watson started in midfield for Michael Stephens, and Guly do Prado came in up top in favor of Quincy Amarikwa.

CHICAGO FIRE (4-4-1-1): Sean Johnson - Eric Gehrig, Jeff Larentowicz, Adailton, Joevin Jones - David Accam, Matt Watson, Matt Polster, Harry Shipp - Shaun Maloney - Guly do Prado (Quincy Amarikwa 66).

TEAM NEWS The Fire have won three games in a row following the victory at NYCFC, the first time they’ve won three

consecutive league games since Oct.4-19, 2013. Fire Designated Player David Accam opened his MLS account by scoring the game’s only goal at NYCFC,

making his second consecutive start. “David is probably not at his best quite yet, I don’t think, but he’s very exciting obviously, [and] there’s a lot

more to come from him,” Fire head coach Frank Yallop said. “David’s an exciting player, and he’s excited to be here. I thought he played fantastic and, you’ll have to ask him, but there’s still more in him I think. He could be a little more attack-minded.”

Said Accam: “When you work really hard things come for you, and that’s what we did, work hard, and I’m not surprised I got the goal. I took a gamble on the ball, and when the ’keeper was going for the ball I just went


straight to him and we got the goal. It’s not simple. When you work hard everything comes to you, so it’s not simple.”

Fire goalkeeper Sean Johnson recorded his second consecutive shutout in the win; he now has a personal goalless run of 249 minutes, tied for seventh-longest in MLS this season.

Guly do Prado made his first career MLS start; he had missed out on the Toronto FC match, after coming off the substitutes’ bench in each of the first four matches.

Quincy Amarikwa was out of the starting lineup for the first time this season, but came off the substitutes’ bench for the final quarter of the contest.

“Guly did well, held the ball up, and played a good role in our attack. Quincy had an ankle injury, missed 12 odd days of training, so we’re on top of that now, if guys don’t train and don’t get their numbers up and going then, they won’t be able to last 90 minutes,” Yallop said. “ … I didn’t want to change many things, I brought Quincy to make a bit of a difference and spark, and he did that. The guys that started and played the whole game did well.”

Matt Watson also made his first start since the season opener on March 6, playing 90 minutes in a central midfield role.

“Matt was good tonight, I spoke to him a couple of days ago, said this was a great opportunity,” Yallop said. “He’s a great kid and he works hard and wants to do well on the team. His teammates really love him and I thought he played great.”

Shaun Maloney moved into an underneath striker role, playing off Guly do Prado as the lone out-and-out sriker to start.

“The first three games, with personnel and the way we were playing, the manager asked me to play deeper, and of course I'm more willing to do whatever he asks of me,” said Maloney. “I think the last probably three games or so, including San Jose, I was a little bit further up. Particularly the last two games, the higher up in the pitch I am, I think I'm more comfortable.

Sporting KC Game Notes | May 3, 2015 vs. Chicago Fire | SportingKC.com/Game-Notes

Sporting KC and the Chicago Fire are set for their 50th all-time regular season meeting Sunday at Sporting Park. It will be the first inter-conference game between the teams since 2004, when Kansas City spent its final season in the West before joining Chicago in the East in 2005. Now a member of the West again, Sporting KC will look to extend their four-game unbeaten streak against the Fire at Sporting Park. That four-game stretch includes three shutouts and an aggregate score of 5-1 in favor of Peter Vermes’ men. Chicago, however, boasts a significant edge in the all-time series with a 25-13-11 record. The Fire are 8-9-9 in Kansas City and 1-2-3 at Sporting Park with their lone win at the venue on June 29, 2012. Sporting KC’s first two major trophies in club history—the 2000 MLS Cup and the 2004 U.S. Open Cup—were secured with victories over Chicago. Kansas City topped the Fire 1-0 in the 2000 MLS Cup before beating their rivals 1-0 in the 2004 U.S. Open Cup final at Arrowhead Stadium.

SPORTING KANSAS CITY NEWS AND NOTESSPORTING KC BACK HOME SUNDAY TO HOST THE CHICAGO FIRE With two consecutive road matches in the books, Sporting Kansas City returns home to face the Chicago Fire at 4 p.m. CT Sunday at Sporting Park in a nationally televised match on ESPN2 and ESPN Deportes. Tied for fifth place in the Western Conference (2-2-4, 10 points), Sporting KC hosts Chicago as an inter-conference opponent for the first time since 2004. Peter Vermes’ men have yet to lose at Sporting Park this season (1-0-3) and are unbeaten in four straight home games against the Fire. Midfielder Benny Feilhaber enters the match in a rich vein of form, leading MLS with five assists and recording his first MLS brace—including an MLS Goal of the Week nominee—in last Saturday’s 4-4 draw at the Houston Dynamo. First-year forward Krisztian is also on an uptick with three goals in the team’s last four matches. Chicago (3-3-0, 9 points) missed out on the 2014 playoffs en route to an MLS record 18 draws last season and opened this year with three consecutive defeats. Since then, however, Frank Yallop’s side has rattled off three straight home victories with two shutouts from United States international goalkeeper Sean Johnson. Homegrown midfielder Harry Shipp, who earned an MLS Rookie of the Year nomination in 2014, leads the Fire with three assists, while first-year Designated Players Shaun Maloney and David Accam have both opened their scoring accounts.

SKC TO DEBUT ALL-WHITE THIRD KIT SUNDAY AT SPORTING PARK On Wednesday, Sporting KC released the club’s new third kit featuring a monochromatic white and metallic silver jersey that will debut Sunday at Sporting Park. The collared jersey’s signature argyle pattern, an iconic element from the third kit of the past two years, is showcased across the chest and is incorporated atop the back of the uniform, as well as on the reverse side of the socks. The silver metallic color scheme further showcases the player names/numbers, two MLS Cup championship stars above the club crest and all four distinctive logos: Ivy Funds, adidas, Sporting KC and MLS. The third kit, exclusively worn with corresponding white shorts and white socks, accompanies Sporting KC’s new primary uniform which launched for the team’s 20th season in 2015, in addition to the striped secondary jersey introduced last year.

LAST TIME OUT: SKC RALLIES TO TIE HOUSTON 4-4 WITH 95TH-MINUTE GOAL Sporting KC battled back from a 3-1 deficit with three goals in the final 20 minutes for a thrilling 4-4 draw at the Houston Dynamo last Saturday. The eight-goal game equals the second-highest scoring MLS match in club history, a feat not seen since 1998, and was capped off by Benny Feilhaber’s superb equalizer in the fifth minute of second half stoppage time. Krisztian Nemeth opened the scoring just two minutes into the match, finding the net for the third time this month, before Dom Dwyer kick-started the comeback with his second goal of the year in the 74th minute. Feilhaber then recorded the first brace of his MLS career and did so in dramatic fashion with a penalty kick in the 80th minute before a stunning half-volley from 25 yards out with less than two minutes remaining. Rookie midfielder Connor Hallisey made his MLS debut in second half stoppage time. The rivals, who have played 16 times since 2011, are now tied for fIfth place in the Western Conference standings with 10 points and will meet twice more in the regular season—Aug. 1 at Sporting Park and Sept. 23 back in Houston.

GOALS GALORE IN HOUSTON Last Saturday’s 4-4 draw between Sporting KC and Houston was tied for the second highest scoring match in Kansas City’s 646-game MLS history (including postseason). Only a 6-4 win against Columbus during the inaugural 1996 season offered more scoring over 90 minutes plus stoppage time. Sporting KC’s four goals were also tied for the team’s second most in a road match all-time, one behind a five-goal shutout win at Colorado in 2000. The fact that Kansas City put four past a Houston defense that had previously conceded one goal in 360 minutes at BBVA Stadium this year (and led MLS with 0.57 goals allowed per game) makes the feat even more impressive.Highest scoring matches in Sporting KC historyDate Result Goals Venue05/02/1996 KC 6-4 CLB 10 Arrowhead Stadium08/16/1998 CLB 5-3 KC 8 Ohio Stadium04/25/2015 HOU 4-4 KC 8 BBVA Compass StadiumNote: seven goals scored on 11 occasions (KC is 9-2-0 in those games)

SPORTING PARK SELLOUT STREAK Sporting Park has sold out 57 consecutive MLS matches (including playoffs) dating back to March 2012 and 69 of 78 overall since opening in June 2011. Sporting KC has set new regular season attendance records in each of the last four years, eclipsing 20,00 spectators per game in 2014. In 77 MLS matches played at the venue, Sporting Park is averaging 19,367 spectators -- 104.9 percent of its 18,467-seat capacity. Sporting KC’s average home attendance in 2014 was at 108.7 percent capacity, the best mark in MLS.

FEILHABER UP FOR GOAL OF THE WEEK AND TEAM OF THE WEEK Sporting KC midfielder Benny Feilhaber continued his strong start to the season in a 4-4 draw at the Houston Dynamo last Saturday. Major League Soccer’s assist leader opened his 2015 scoring account with the first two-goal performance of his MLS career, landing him unanimous Team of the Week recognition from MLSsoccer.com, Goal.com, Bleacher Report and NBC Pro Soccer Talk. In addition, Feilhaber’s spectacular volley in the 95th minute of the match has been nominated for MLS Goal of the Week. The late strike was the final goal in Sporting KC’s second-highest scoring match in team history.

FOR THE GOALKEEPERS, ONE TO FORGET Though last Saturday’s 4-4 draw may have been an instant classic among fans, pundits and participating field players, it will be one the goalkeepers want to forget. Luis Marin and Tyler Deric combined to make zero saves, marking just the fourth time in MLS history that a match failed to produce a single save. The other three instances—most recently a scoreless draw between FC Dallas and Seattle last month—combined for just seven shots on goal, while Houston and SKC combined for eight.All-time MLS matches without a save from either teamDate Result Shots on goal Venue05/18/2005 RSL 2-0 CHV 2 Rice-Eccles Stadium04/04/2009 LA 2-3 COL 5 StubHub Center03/28/2015 DAL 0-0 SEA 0 Toyota Stadium04/25/2015 HOU 4-4 KC 8 BBVA Compass Stadium

SCORING EARLY, SCORING LATE Sporting KC bookended the scoring last Saturday, drawing first blood really early and salvaging a tie really late. Krisztian Nemeth’s low drive in the second minute—the fourth earliest ever conceded by Houston at home—was tied for the team’s second quickest road goal all-time. Conversely, Benny Feilhaber’s spectacular volley after 95 minutes was the team’s second latest road goal all-time and fourth latest overall. Both goals came from outside the box, as did Giles Barnes’ strike in the 46th minute. The three total goals from beyond the penalty area tied an all-time MLS high during the Opta era (2011-present).Latest stoppage time goals in Sporting KC regular season historyDate Result Scorer Min.

ZUSI NOTCHES 50TH ASSIST IN ALL COMPETITIONS Graham Zusi’s cushioned header that led to Feilhaber’s last-gasp equalizer last Saturday gave the United States international 50 career assists for Sporting KC in all competitions. Zusi becomes just the third player in club history to reach that mark, behind Preki (104) and Chris Klein (54).

DWYER DOMINANT AGAINST DYNAMO Dom Dwyer, whose opportunistic goal in the 74th minute cut Kansas City’s deficit to 3-2 last Saturday in Houstno, has now scored in each of his last four matches against the Dynamo dating back to the 2013 Eastern Conference Championship second leg.

FOUR GOALS NOT ENOUGH IN LATE COMEBACK Last Saturday was the first time ever that Kansas City scored at least four goals and failed to win in MLS competition, having previously been 36-0-0 in those games (including postseason). It also marked the fifth time ever that the team earned a road result after trailing by two goals in the second half.

NEMETH FINDING HIS FORM First-year forward Krisztian Nemeth has scored in three of Sporting KC’s last four matches and is now the club’s top scorer in 2015. The 26-year-old Hungarian and former Liverpool Reserves member has put three shots on goal this season, each of which has found the back of the net.

SPORTING KANSAS CITY NEWS AND NOTES (CONTINUED)LOAN RECAP: ABDUL-SALAAM AND SAN ANTONIO SALVAGE LATE DRAW Following in the footsteps of Sporting KC, Saad Abdul-Salaam and the San Antonio Scorpions received an equalizer in second half stoppage time to salvage an exciting 2-2 draw last Saturday, April 25. The defending North American Soccer League champions (0-2-1) secured their first point of the 2015 season as a late penalty kick from Rafael Castillo denied Minnesota United (0-1-2) three points in front of a franchise record crowd of 9,233 at the National Sports Center in Blaine, Minnesota. Abdul-Salaam played the entire match at right back and has featured in every minute of San Antonio’s young NASL campaign. In Oklahoma City, meanwhile, midfielder Mikey Lopez earned his fourth start in as many matches as OKC Energy FC (2-1-1) suffered their first defeat of the 2015 USL season, 2-1, against expansion team St. Louis FC (2-2-1) at Taft Stadium.

WINNING THE DUEL In a 3-1 loss at FC Dallas on March 14, Sporting KC lost 61 percent (69 of 113) of the game’s duels, marking the largest negative discrepancy in duels for Sporting KC since Opta began tracking MLS statistics in 2011. Following the match, Sporting KC responded with two consecutive performances in which they set MLS season-highs for duels won. Peter Vermes’ men won 72 duels in a 0-0 draw against Portland before winning 78 in a win at New York City FC. Sporting KC has out-dueled five of their last six opponents and leads MLS with 497 duels won entering Week 9.

SPORTING KC A SET PIECE THREAT Through the first eight weeks of the season, Sporting KC has been one of the league’s most dangerous teams on set pieces. In addition to scoring four goals directly off set pieces, the team has accumulated numerous statistics that illustrate their set piece prowess.

• Sporting KC leads MLS with 26 chances created from set plays (10 more than any other team) and five assists from set plays

• Sporting KC leads MLS with four headed goals• Benny Feilhaber and Matt Besler are two of three MLS players (Brad

Davis) with multiple assists from set plays (two each).

STADIUM CRASHERS On March 28, Sporting KC delivered New York City FC their first ever defeat at Yankee Stadium with a 1-0 result. Sporting KC has now handed MLS opponents their first loss at a new stadium at seven different venues, including a penalty shootout win against San Jose in 1996.

IN-FORM FEILHABER FAST TO FIVE ASSISTS From a playmaking perspective, Benny Feilhaber is off to one of the best starts in club history. At LA Galaxy on April 18, he became the second fastest player to reach the five assist mark, doing so in his seventh league appearance of 2015. Feilhaber’s role in Krisztian Nemeth’s 22nd-minute strike also marked the second time in Sporting KC history that one player has assisted five of the team’s first seven goals in a season. The only other player to accomplish that feat is winger Graham Zusi, who needed just four games to reach five assists in 2012 and also set up five of the club’s first seven goals that year. With 26 regular season matches still to play in 2015, Feilhaber is two assists shy of equaling his career-high, set in 2011 during his first MLS campaign with the New England Revolution. After recording a brace last Saturday at Houston, he is also two goals shy of equalling a career-best four MLS goals, set in 2011 and 2014.

IN-FORM DEFENDER IKE OPARA SIDELINED WITH RUPTURED ACHILLES Sporting KC announced on April 13 that defender Ike Opara has been diagnosed with a ruptured Achilles tendon in his left ankle. He suffered the injury in the 81st minute of Saturday’s scoreless draw between Sporting KC and Real Salt Lake at Sporting Park. The 26-year-old centerback had played every minute of the team’s first six games until that point after coming back from a season-ending surgery in his right ankle one year ago. At the time of his injury, Opara led Sporting KC – and all MLS defenders – with two goals in 2015, while also anchoring a backline that had three shutouts and conceded the fewest shots per game (9.83) of any team in the league this season. In addition, he led all MLS players in 2015 with 30 interceptions and 33 aerials won, while ranking second in duels won (55). He was named to MLSsoccer.com’s Team of the Week in three of the season’s first four weeks and finished third in MLS Player of the Month voting for March. Opara’s two goals this season bring his goal total to six across all competitions since he joined the club in 2013 from San Jose. The 6-foot-2 centerback has proven particularly dangerous on set pieces, as all six of his goals have been headers. Opara’s five MLS goals over the last three regular seasons are tied for third most among defenders, one behind Jordan Harvey (Vancouver) and Matt Hedges (Dallas). Opara has been a key contributor for teams that have won the NCAA National Championship (Wake Forest, 2007), Supporters’ Shield (San Jose, 2012) and MLS Cup (Sporting KC, 2013). At the international level, he represented the United States at the 2009 FIFA Under-20 World Cup in Egypt and was also a member of the U.S. Under-23 Men’s National Team during Olympic qualifying in 2012.

HISTORIC COMEBACK Sporting KC’s 3-2 victory over the Philadelphia Union on April 5 was just the seventh in MLS history by a team that trailed entering stoppage time. Jalil Anibaba scored a 91st-minute equalizer to set the stage for Krisztian Nemeth’s game-winner with 94 minutes on the clock. The last time Kansas City pulled off such a reversal was Sept. 17, 2007, when Eddie Johnson (93’) and Scott Sealy (94’) condemned the Columbus Crew to a 3-2 defeat.All-time MLS comeback wins in stoppage timeDate Result Score at 90 min Venue04/08/2000 DC 3-2 CHI 1-2 RFK Stadium04/21/2001 DAL 3-2 CHI 1-2 Cotton Bowl07/27/2003 NE 2-4 DC 2-1 Gillette Stadium09/15/2007 KC 3-2 CLB 1-2 Arrowhead Stadium10/15/2011 DC 1-2 CHI 1-0 RFK Stadium06/29/2013 SJ 3-2 LA 1-2 Stanford Stadium04/05/2015 KC 3-2 PHI 1-2 Sporting Park

SPORTING KC REACHES 1,000 GOALS IN ALL COMPETITIONS In addition to being the club’s 1,000th goal across all competitions in team history, Krisztian Nemeth’s 94th-minute match-winner on April 5 against the Philadelphia Union bore league-wide significance. It was the first MLS match in which both teams scored at least two goals from set pieces since September 2009.Sporting KC milestone goals (all competitions)Goal Scorer Date Opponent1st Vitalis Takawira 04/13/1996 Colorado Rapids100th Edmundo Rodriguez 06/21/1997 D.C.

ROAD WARRIORS Sporting KC has won 30 away matches in MLS since the beginning of 2011, more than any other club, including eight road wins in each of the previous three regular seasons. Their 24 road wins from 2012-2014 are the most of any MLS club over a three-year span during the non-shootout era (2000-present). Coincidentally, the 1-0 victory over New York City FC on March 28 was Sporting KC’s 300th regular season road game and the team’s 100th road win across all competition in club history.

OFFSEASON OVERHAULA roster makeover during the offseason saw Sporting KC acquire 13 new players and part ways with 15 members from last year’s squad. While retaining its veteran core – Matt Besler, Graham Zusi, Dom Dwyer, Seth Sinovic and Chance Myers – the club made multiple signings at each position.New goalkeepers (2): Luis Marin (31), a Chilean international (eight caps) with 12 years of professional experience in his native country and Sporting KC’s current holder of the No. 1 jersey; Tim Melia (28), a sixth-year MLS veteran who was a League Pool Goalkeeper in 2014 and received a call-up from Sporting KC last summer.New defenders (4): Jalil Anibaba (26), a versatile veteran who has started more than 100 MLS matches over four years with Chicago and Seattle; Saad Abdul-Salaam (23), a right back out of Akron selected 12th overall in the 2015 MLS SuperDraft; Amadou Dia (21), a left back out of Clemson selected 20th overall in the 2015 MLS SuperDraft; Marcel de Jong (28), a Canadian international (33 caps) who has played each of the last four years at FC Augsburg of the German Bundesliga.New midfielders (3): Roger Espinoza (28), a Honduran international (46 caps) and MLS All-Star who played in Kansas City from 2008-2012 before joining Wigan Athletic in England; Servando Carrasco (26), an MLS veteran who played 60 games over four years with Seattle and Houston; Soni Mustivar (25), a Haiti international who has played each of the last three seasons with Petrolul Ploiesti in the Romanian first division.New forwards (4): Bernardo Anor (26), a fifth-year veteran who played 72 MLS matches and scored 12 goals in Columbus; Krisztian Nemeth (26), a Hungarian international (15 caps) with nearly 10 years of professional experience across Europe; Connor Hallisey (22), a winger out of California selected 10th overall in the 2015 MLS SuperDraft; James Ansu Rogers (21), a winger out of New Mexico selected 53rd overall in the 2015 MLS SuperDraft.

SUCCESS IN KANSAS CITY Sporting KC is in their 20th season as one of nine active charter members in Major League Soccer. Led by seventh-year Manager Peter Vermes, Sporting KC is the only club to win an MLS Cup (2013), a Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup (2012) and multiple conference regular season titles (2011, 2012) since 2006. Vermes has guided the team to four straight postseason appearances and 69 MLS victories (including playoffs) since 2011, third most in the league. During that time, Sporting KC has recorded a league-best 30 road wins. In addition to winning championships, the club has seen many of its current players earn individual accolades. Winger Graham Zusi was named MLS Breakout Player of the Year in 2011, while captain Matt Besler received MLS Defender of the Year recognition in 2012. A pair of three-time MLS All-Stars, Zusi (28 caps) and Besler (25 caps) are veterans of the United States Men’s National Team and signed Designated Player contracts with Sporting KC last July after competing at the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil. Last year, Dwyer scored 22 MLS goals and 24 goals in all competitions to set new single-season records for the club. The 24-year-old has scored 52 goals in all competitions since the start of 2013—30 with Sporting KC and 22 with former USL PRO affiliate Orlando City SC. Now entering his fourth year in Kansas City, Dwyer signed a contract extension during this offseason. Sporting KC also welcomes back Honduran international midfielder Roger Espinoza, who played five seasons for the team from 2008-2012. After becoming an MLS All-Star in 2012, Espinoza moved to Wigan Athletic where he won the 2013 FA Cup title and made 57 total appearances across the English Premier League, English Championship, UEFA Europa League and domestic cups. He is the only active MLS player to have competed in the 2010 and 2014 FIFA World Cups and the 2012 Summer Olympics.

Opara represented the United States at the 2009 FIFA U-20 World Cup, playing all three matches at the tournament, and at the U-23 level during the 2012 CONCACAF Men’s Olympic Qualifying Tournament. He was drafted by the San Jose Earthquakes in the 2010 MLS SuperDraft as a Generation adidas signing and played 36 MLS matches for the club over three seasons.

Sporting KC Coach Bios | May 3, 2015 vs. Chicago Fire | SportingKC.com/Game-Notes

Peter Vermes enters his seventh season as Sporting Kansas City Manager in 2015. He is the team’s second-longest serving head coach, and his .548 regular season winning percentage (78-60-48) is best in 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 78

regular season wins are tied for 12th most in MLS history.

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.

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.

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 marked the first time the United States 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, appearing for Raba ETO and FC Volendam, respectively. He later spent five years with Figueras of the Spanish Second Division.

For MLS’s inaugural season in 1996, Vermes served as captain of the New York/New Jersey MetroStars. In 1997, he was traded to the Colorado Rapids for current Sporting KC Assistant Coach Kerry Zavagnin and played in Denver through the 1999 season, leading the Rapids to the 1997 MLS Cup Final.

Vermes joined Kansas City in 2000 for what would be the most successful 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 became eligible for the veteran ballot and on October 11, 2013, Vermes was inducted into the National Soccer Hall of Fame.

Manager | Peter VermesAssistant 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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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 | Zoran Savic

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.

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.

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

Assistant Coach | John PascarellaMateus 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.

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.

A LOOK AT THE FIRE The Chicago Fire enter their 18th season of MLS play after a busy offseason.
