Mike Magee scored a pair of goals in the opening 15 minutes, both on penalty kicks, to send the Fire on their way to a 2-1 win May 18 at Toyota Park.  Kansas City has won three times on their last eight trips to Bridgeview, dating back to 2008 – after winning at the Fire just once in the opening decade of the series between the clubs.  Coaches record: Peter Vermes vs. CHI: P12 W3 L6 T3 … Frank Yallop vs. KC: P26 W13 L8 T5 LAST MEETING (MLS) 5/18: CHI 2, KC 1 (Magee 7, 15 – Dwyer 68)  The Fire got off to a perfect start Quincy Amarikwa was taken down in the box as he rounded goalkeeper Eric Kronberg following a precise through ball from Harry Shipp. Mike Magee stepped up to take the resulting penalty and kept his nerve superbly to roll the ball into the bottom left corner.  The home side then doubled their lead eight minutes later when debutant Erik Palmer-Brown shoved Benji Joya in the back just inside the area. Magee got his second chance from 12 yards and slotted home to the same side to double the Fire advantage.  Sporting were a man when Palmer-Brown's debut ended early, in the 64th minute, after being shown a second yellow card for a late, sliding challenge on Amarikwa at midfield.  The visitors pulled a goal back in the 68th minute when Dom Dwyer found himself unmarked at the far post to power in Benny Feilhaber's free kick from the right wing, but that would be all the joy SKC would find on the day.  CHICAGO FIRE (4-4-2): Sean Johnson - Lovel Palmer, Patrick Ianni, Jhon Kennedy Hurtado, Greg Cochrane Patrick Nyarko (Dilly Duka 59), Jeff Larentowicz, Benji Joya (Logan Pause 58), Harry Shipp - Quincy Amarikwa (Juan Luis Anangono 85), Mike Magee.  SPORTING KANSAS CITY (3-3-2-2): Eric Kronberg - Chance Myers, Erik Palmer-Brown (ejected 64), Seth Sinovic - Jacob Peterson (Soony Saad 84), Paulo Nagamura, Igor Juliao - Benny Feilhaber, Antonio Dovale (Alex Martinez 71) - Claudio Bieler (Kevin Ellis 67), Dom Dwyer.

SPORTING KANSAS CITY Sporting Kansas City won their second consecutive road match, getting the game’s lone goal for a victory against the Portland Timbers on Friday evening at Providence Park. Sporting moved into a tie for first place in the Eastern Conference with 25 points from 16 games.

LAST MATCH

MLS GAME INFORMATION



The game's only goal came in the 24th minute. Seth Sinovic sent a long throw-in into the penalty area from the left touchline, and after a bounce off center back Kevin Ellis, Lawrence Olum eventually got his right foot to the ball for a rolling shot that beat goalkeeper Donovan Ricketts.  SKC goalkeeper Eric Kronberg was called upon to make three saves for the clean sheet, his league-leading eighth of the season.  Sporting manager Peter Vermes made three changes to the team that defeated the Houston Dynamo 2-0 at BBVA Compass Stadium. Aurelien Collin came into central defense in place of Erik Palmer-Brown, and Sal Zizzo and Jacob Peterson came into the side for Benny Feilhaber and the suspended Antonio Dovale.  SPORTING KANSAS CITY (4-4-2): Eric Kronberg - Igor Juliao, Kevin Ellis, Aurelien Collin, Seth Sinovic - Sal Zizzo (Alex Martinez 80), Lawrence Olum (C.J. Sapong 56), Paulo Nagamura, Jacob Peterson - Dom Dwyer, Soony Saad.

TEAM NEWS  Sporting won for a second consecutive match after enduring a five-game winless run May 14-31. It was their second consecutive shutout win away from Sporting Park.  “We just played to our standard in regards to our work ethic on the field. That’s the difference,” said Sporting manager Peter Vermes. “Obviously we’re still missing 13 guys out of our team through injury and guys away with the national team at World Cup. With all that being said, we still have a great fighting spirit with the group.”  Said center back Aurelien Collin: “It was a very important win, especially after the loss in Open Cup. We’re very upset about that. It was a competition that for me and for the team was very important. We didn’t do the right job. So coming here and showing the right mentality was the most important thing. After having a win here, it’s a great night.”  After playing in central defense at midweek in the U.S. Open Cup win vs. Portland, Kevin Ellis returned to right back and Collin came into the team at center back.  “We still have a lot of young guys that have shown, honestly, a lot of experience. We could have managed the game better in the last 20 minutes. We were losing so many balls. When we were winning the ball we could not have more than two or three passes. They were very good in defense,” said Collin. “I’m a bit upset about this, but the defensive work was very, very good.”  Said Vermes: “Not only was he in a good position all the time, but I thought he was actually good on the ball – made the right decisions. There were times it was difficult, because of the numbers they had in the middle of the park, to play it out of the back – especially up the middle. So he made some good choices on the balls he played out as well.”  Lawrence Olum made his second consecutive start – his first since May 4 – and scored his second career MLS league goal. He first came in the season finale a season ago at Philadelphia.  There was an injury concern after Olum came off the field early in the second half.  “A guy we count on in the middle of the park and we had to put a guy in there that normally doesn’t play in there. So the fighting spirit was tremendous by the players,” said Vermes. “ … I think it’s more of a tweak and I think it’s good, because we don’t actually play until next Sunday so hopefully those extra days are going to get him back on the field because we need him.”  It was also a second consecutive shutout for Sporting, their seventh of the season, after going five games without a defensive clean sheet following a spell of four shutouts in five games April 5-May 10.  “I thought we were tactically very efficient. I thought we made the game very difficult for them. The only thing they really had was trying to pump the ball into the box. I don’t think they had many solutions for the way that we played,” said Vermes. “I thought at times, especially the first half was a different half, we knew in the second half they were going to push everyone very high up the field and it was going to be a little more difficult.”  Benny Feilhaber missed his first league match of the season, though he did miss both U.S. Open Cup matches with a sprained left shoulder.  “It's not 100 percent, but it's good to go. I'm ready to play. We're not holding anything back in practice. It's just a little bit of a tape job on my shoulder, which I'm used to with my ankles. I'll get used to it with my shoulder as well.” Said Vermes: “I'm just not sure. He's starting to get a little contact now, so we'll see. We'll have to make that decision more toward the end of the week, to see how he feels.”

CHICAGO FIRE The Chicago Fire saw their winless streak stretched to five games, coming back for a 1-1 draw with Toronto FC on Wednesday evening at Toyota Park. The Fire are in ninth place in the Eastern Conference with 15 points from 15 games.

LAST MATCH  The match turned in the 29th minute when Toronto’s Luke Moore was shown a straight red card by referee Sorin Stoica for an elbow to the head of Fire midfielder Chris Ritter.  But the visitors took the lead in 42nd minute when Jackson, unmarked at the back post, headed home a cross from Jermain Defoe from the right-wing corner.

MLS GAME INFORMATION



The Fire pulled level in the 57th minute from a short corner when Mike Magee slipped the ball to rookie Harry Shipp in the left side of the area and he cut inside before unleashing an unstoppable shot that tipped past TFC goalkeeper Joe Bendik.  Fire head coach Frank Yallop made three changes to the team that fell 3-2 to Seattle Sounders FC at Toyota Park. Greg Cochrane and Patrick Ianni came into the back four for Gonzalo Segares and the suspended Jhon Kennedy Hurtado, and Mike Magee returned to the side in place of Benji Joya.  CHICAGO FIRE (4-4-2): Sean Johnson - Lovel Palmer, Bakary Soumare, Patrick Ianni, Greg Cochrane (Juan Luis Anangono 73) - Grant Ward, Chris Ritter (Alex 46), Jeff Larentowicz, Harry Shipp - Quincy Amarikwa, Mike Magee.

TEAM NEWS  The Fire have now gone winless in five games (0-2-3) following their only two league wins of the season. They opened the MLS campaign winless in eight games (0-2-6).  “I've said it a few times; we've tied and maybe deserved to win the game, but we haven't. That's our problem right now: we can't seem to win a game. We haven't lost a ton, but we haven't won many. It's a weird situation, it's frustrating; we can't get over the finish line with a win,” said Fire head coach Frank Yallop. “The guys are frustrated in there, we are, as a staff, and me as a head coach. It's not from lack of effort, which is important, it's just lapses of concentration at the wrong time. They had one or two chances and scored one goal; we probably had five to six, seven, eight chances and scored one. It's the story of our season so far, so it's been frustrating.”  Rookie Harry Shipp scored his sixth goal of the season, his third over the last two matches. All six of Shipp’s goals have come over the last seven league games, since scoring a hat trick May 10 vs. New York. The club and MLS record for goals by a rookie was set by Damani Ralph, with 11 in 2003.  “Harry's starting to blossom into a good player. I think he's starting to play with a lot of confidence, and he knows he's a good player. He's maturing nicely, and I think that it's no surprise that he does well. He's in a lot of the good stuff that we do going forward,” said Yallop. “So, very happy with his development. Good goal again; I think he's at six goals already, a great tally for any player, let alone a rookie coming into a brand new, professional league. He's done fantastically well.”  Said Shipp: “We had the ball pretty much the entire second half. Being up a man obviously helps that, but we can’t afford to tie at home. We came in to this game knowing that we needed a win, we kind of billed it as a game to turn our season around, which hopefully gives us momentum heading into the second half of the year.

It didn’t happen.”  Mike Magee returned to the lineup after a four-match absence in league play, his first appearance since May 18 vs. Sporting KC. Magee collected his third assist of the season.  “Both of them [Magee and Quincy Amarikwa] had pretty good looks; just that final, last, little piece was just missing. But I'm not going to fault them for effort, I think that they worked well,” said Yallop. “They tried to do the right things, moved the ball pretty sharply for us, passed it well. Again, it's a little easier against 10 men, but I still think we did the right things to create enough chances, but we just didn't get our final touch.”  Chris Ritter made his fourth consecutive start in the center of midfield. He came off at halftime for Alex, who was making a second consecutive substitute appearance after missing six matches May 3-June 4.  “[Alex has] not played a league game for a good nine weeks or so. Once they went to 10 men, I felt we needed something more offensive, and Alex obviously has more of an offensive mind than Chris [Ritter]; Chris had a pretty good bang on his eye, so I think it was a smart move to do that,” said Yallop. “If you look at the game as a whole, with Alex in there, we did create enough chances to get something out of it. Whether he played really well himself, he didn't play for a while, so he was going to be a little rusty. But I think that the formation was fine, and it gave us enough chances to get into the game or win the game.”  The Fire made a late tactical adjustment when Juan Luis Anangono came on for Greg Cochrane.  “We went to three in the back, but it didn't quite work, so I put Jeff [Larentowicz] back. So we were going to go with Jeff, Baky [Soumare], and Patrick [Ianni], but we decided to just go with four and just push Lovel [Palmer] and [Grant] Ward, playing right back, he's really a right wing, forward,” said Yallop. “We possessed the ball enough, did enough to get something out of it, so we were definitely going for it to try and get a win.”

Sporting KC has sold out 44 straight MLS home matches at Sporting Park.

Sporting KC has won 236 MLS regular season matches, fourth most in league history.

Peter Vermes is in his sixth season as manager, second longest in club history behind Bob Gansler.

Peter Vermes’ winning percentage (.559) is best for Sporting KC all-time.

Graham Zusi is tied with Davy Arnaud for third place on Sporting KC’s all-time assists chart with 35.

Aurelien Collin is second in club history in MLS competition for most goals scored by a defender with 15, two shy of Jimmy Conrad (17).

Matt Besler is in ninth place on the club’s all-time chart for games started with 130.

Dom Dwyer is the third player in club history to score in four straight MLS regular season appearances. His four-game goal scoring streak ties the MLS season high along with Erick Torres, Robbie Keane, Bradley Wright-Phillips, Patrick Mullins and Erik Hurtado.

Should Aurelien Collin start on Sunday, it will be his 100th MLS start for Sporting KC (including postseason).

Sporting KC news & Notes World Cup run comes to an end for Matt Besler and Graham Zusi Sporting KC defender Matt Besler and midfielder Graham Zusi have concluded their first FIFA World Cup campaign with the United States.

Belgium defeated the U.S. 2-1 on Tuesday as the Americans bowed out in the Round of 16 for the second straight World Cup. Led by Tom Howard’s 16 saves—the most in recorded World Cup history— the U.S. held Belgium to a scoreless stalemate in regulation before Kevin De Bruyne and Romelu Lukaku struck for the Red Devils in the first half of extra time. Late-game substitute Julian Green pulled one back with a terrific volley in the 107th minute, but Belgium withstood a late surge from the Americans to advance.

Besler and Zusi made significant impacts throughout the tournament. In a 2-1 win over Ghana on June 16, Besler started and Zusi provided the game-winning assist with an 86th-minute corner kick. Against Portugal on June 22, Besler led all players with 12 clearances and five interceptions and Zusi assisted another late goal as the U.S. battled to a 2-2 draw. It marked the first time since 2002 that two players from the same MLS club started together for the U.S. in a World Cup game.

The Sporting KC duo started against Germany in the third and final group stage encounter, and despite a 1-0 loss, the U.S. progressed to the Round of 16 with a superior goal difference over Portugal.

Besler and Zusi started in the Round of 16 loss to Belgium, becoming the first two players to see action in a World Cup knockout stage contest while playing club soccer in Kansas City. Besler played all 120 minutes and Zusi was replaced in the 72nd minute.

Besler, 27, has earned 21 caps for the U.S. since debuting in January 2013, including six FIFA World Cup qualifiers and all three knockout round games en route to the 2013 CONCACAF Gold Cup title. The U.S. is 13-3-4 with Besler in the starting lineup. He has appeared in 145 MLS matches (including postseason) in his career, earning MLS Best XI (2012, 2013), MLS All-Star (2011, 2013) and MLS Defender of the Year (2012) honors.

Zusi has earned 25 caps for the U.S. with three goals and six assists in his international career. He scored in the final two FIFA World Cup Qualifiers, highlighted by the game-winning goal against Jamaica at Sporting Park, to secure a first place finish in the Hexagonal for the U.S. He has played in 142 MLS matches (including postseason) with 18 goals and 40 assists. He was an MLS MVP finalist in 2012 and nominee for Best MLS Player at the 2013 ESPYS to go along with MLS All-Star (2012, 2013) and MLS Best XI (2012, 2013) recognition.

Bittersweet history against the Chicago Fire

Sporting KC shutting opponents down on the road

Sporting KC’s 25 regular season losses to the Fire are the most to any team in MLS. Chicago’s 84 regular season goals scored against Sporting KC is also a league-high. However, two of Sporting KC’s four major championships -- the 2000 MLS Cup and the 2004 U.S. Open Cup -- came against the Fire. Sporting KC won the lone MLS postseason match between the rivals, earning their first MLS Cup title on Oct. 15, 2000.

Coming on the heels of a 2-0 win at the Houston Dynamo on June 6, Sporting KC’s 1-0 win at the Portland Timbers on June 27 was historic.

For just the third time in club history, Sporting KC registered consecutive shutout road wins in MLS competition (including postseason). The team has won at least two straight away games 13 times since 1996, but never posted consecutive clean sheets during those runs until 2011.

Eric Kronberg named MLS Player of the Month for June

Peter Vermes’ men achieved back-to-back shutout road victories for the first time ever when they notched four straight from October 2011 to April 2012, a streak that spanned two seasons (including the 2011 postseason).

Sporting KC accomplished this feat for the second time when they rattled off three straight from August to September 2012.

Sporting KC goalkeeper Eric Kronberg was named MLS Player of the Month for June on Thursday. He became the first goalkeeper to win the award since July 2011 and the second goalkeeper in club history to earn the honor (Tony Meola, May 2000). Kronberg kept clean sheets and recorded road wins in each of Sporting KC’s only two MLS matches in June as the club moved back atop the Eastern Conference standings. He made saves on all six shots faced, including five from inside the penalty area, and he led all goalkeepers in the month with six punches while extending his shutout streak to 242 minutes.

Kronberg leads MLS with seven shutouts and a 0.88 goals against average (minimum 400 minutes played) in 2014. Kronberg is the second Sporting KC player to receive Player of the Month recognition in as many months.

Forward Dom Dwyer was voted the league’s top performer in May with six goals scored.

Seven Sporting KC players in contention for All-Star Fan XI On June 30, Major League Soccer released the latest results from fan voting for the 2014 MLS All-Star Game in Portland, Oregon. Seven Sporting KC players are among the leaders at their respective positions.

Captain Matt Besler is the leading vote getter among defenders, while his centerback partner Aurelien Collin is third and left back Seth Sinovic is sixth. Graham Zusi and Benny Feilhaber are the fourth and sixth-ranked midfielders, and goalkeeper Eric Kronberg ranks third. Dom Dwyer is sixth among forwards.

The All-Star Fan XI—one goalkeeper, three defenders, four midfielders and three forwards—will be revealed on July 16. The 2014 MLS All-Star Game is set for Aug. 6 featuring German champions Bayern Munich at Portland’s Providence Park.

Kevin Ellis lands spot on MLS Team of the Week Sporting KC defender Kevin Ellis was named to MLSsoccer.com’s Team of the Week on Monday, the second time the homegrown player has received such honors in the last month. In the 1-0 win over Portland on June 27, Ellis picked up his first career assist on Lawrence Olum’s gamewinning goal and helped the team set single-game season highs with 43 clearances and 24 tackles won.

The right back has started the last five MLS matches in central defense.

Ellis earned MLSsoccer.com Team of the Week recognition for the first time in his career after Sporting KC beat the Houston Dynamo 2-0 on June 6.

Mikey Lopez recalled to Sporting KC Sporting KC has recalled midfielder Mikey Lopez from his loan to OKC Energy FC, the club announced Monday. Lopez returns to the club after scoring his first goal in Energy FC’s 2-0 win over Sacramento Republic last Saturday and being named to the USL PRO’s Team of the Week. The 2013 MLS SuperDraft first round pick appeared in 14 matches while on loan with USL PRO affiliates Orlando City SC and Energy FC, scoring one goal and one assist.

Sporting KC now has four away victories in 2014, second-most in MLS behind the Seattle Sounders’ five. Since the beginning of 2011, no team has more regular season road wins (24) or shutout road wins (13) than Sporting KC.

Injuries and international duty test Sporting KC’s depth Through 16 games in the 2014 MLS regular season, Sporting KC has featured 16 different starting lineups. Peter Vermes’ lineup selection has been complicated by several factors throughout the year. In March, the club had to balance multiple competitions during the CONCACAF Champions League quarterfinals. In May, schedule congestion came to the forefront with seven MLS games during the month. To complicate matters, Chance Myers and Ike Opara have suffered season-ending injuries; Matt Besler, Graham Zusi and Lawrence Olum have seen extended international action; and Erik Palmer-Brown and Aurelien Collin have served one-game suspensions, with the latter also picking up a minor injury.

As a result, 25 different players have started an MLS match for the club this season, most of all 19 teams. Sporting KC’s defense has been stretched most of all, with eight different players featuring in the centerback position during the 2014 campaign.

Sporting KC releases Alex Martinez Sporting KC announced on Monday that the club has released midfielder Alex Martinez. The club drafted Martinez with the No. 57 overall pick (third round) in the 2014 MLS SuperDraft. The rookie started three regular season matches and scored his first professional goal in a 2014 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup fourth round win over NASL club Minnesota United.

Sporting Park sellout streak and Open Cup attendance numbers Sporting Park has sold out 44 straight MLS matches, including four playoff games. The last time Sporting KC didn’t play in front of a sellout crowd was March 25, 2012. In those 44 matches, Sporting KC is 24-9-11, has recorded 15 shutouts, and has outscored their opponents 57-34.

Sporting Park attendance at Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup matches has also been strong. The turnout of 15,307 at Sporting KC’s fourth round win on June 18 was the highest announced attendance in the 2014 U.S. Open Cup thus far. In fact, it was the seventh best-attended U.S. Open Cup match dating back to 2011. Since then, Sporting Park has played host to six of the 10 best-attended U.S. Open Cup matches.

First half lockdown Sporting KC has allowed three first half goals in MLS matches this season, fewest of any team. Two of those three goals were penalty kicks against the Chicago Fire on May 18, meaning Sporting KC has allowed just one first half goal from the run of play in 2014 MLS competition.

Down a man, Sporting KC goes two goals up in Houston

Sporting KC and Manchester City to battle for Champions Shield

Sporting KC was reduced to 10 players at the Houston Dynamo on June 6 when Antonio Dovale was sent off in the 21st minute, the earliest red card ever received by a KC player. Yet Sporting KC emerged victorious with a 2-0 win, marking the first time Sporting KC scored a game-winning goal while playing down a man on the road. Soony Saad scored the game-winner just before halftime and Dom Dwyer added a penalty kick in the 70th minute. Only two other times in team history—May 1, 2004 in a 2-0 home win over Colorado and March 26, 2011 in a 3-2 road loss at Chicago—had Sporting KC netted twice in an MLS match while at a numerical disadvantage after a red card.

On July 23, Sporting KC will host defending English Premier League winner Manchester City FC at Sporting Park in a highly anticipated summer friendly. To commemorate the match between the reigning MLS and EPL champions, the winner of the game will receive the Champions’ Shield.

Full details on the design of the Shield will be released at a later date.

CONCACAF Champions League opponents determined The offical draw for the 2014-15 CONCACAF Champions League placed Sporting KC in Group 2 alongside Deportivo Saprissa (Costa Rica) and Real Esteli FC (Nicaragua).

Deportivo Saprissa has won three CONCACAF Champions Cup titles (1993, 1995 and 2005) and features five players on Costa Rica’s roster for the 2014 FIFA World Cup. In May, Saprissa won their 30th league title in the Torneo de Verano final to become the most successful club in the history of the Costa Rican Primera Division.

Real Esteli, the defending Clausura and Apertura champions in their domestic league, are the only Nicaraguan side to have participated in the competition and have qualified every year since the 2008-09 edition. Real Esteli will meet Sporting KC in the group stage for a second straight year after going 0-3-1 during the 2013-14 tournament.

2014-15 CONCACAF Champions League group stage fixtures will be played from August to October, with each group winner advancing to the knockout stage in spring 2015.

Paying the penalty Sporting KC has conceded five penalty kicks through 16 matches this season, already fifth-most most for a single season in franchise history.

The team conceded seven penalties in 1998 and 2007 and six penalties in 2000 and 2006.

This follows a League-wide trend, as 72 penalty kicks have been awarded through 149 MLS matches (0.48 per game, as of July 3). The whole 2013 regular season had 81 penalties (0.25 per game), while the entire 2012 campaign had just 72 penalties (0.22 per game).

Red cards rising Sporting KC has suffered six red cards and received four during the 2014 season. The combined 10 ejections through 16 matches already equal the club’s 2013 total. Much like penalty kicks, red card numbers have increased League-wide this season. An average of 0.31 red cards have been shown per game (through July 3), up from 0.24 in 2013 and 0.18 in 2012.

Kempin in good form at OKC Energy FC Sporting KC has partnered with USL PRO clubs Orlando City SC and OKC Energy FC for the 2014 season. As part of the agreement, Sporting KC will loan players to the clubs to play games and gain experience throughout the year.

After losing seven of their first nine matches of the 2014 USL PRO season, OKC Energy FC is unbeaten in six games and in the eighth and final playoff spot (5-7-3, 18 points). Homegrown goalkeeper Jon Kempin has pitched three straight shutouts and lowered his goals allowed average from 2.5 to 1.38 over the last five games.

Manchester City boasts a talented roster from top to bottom, including three players—Yaya Toure, Sergio Aguero and Edin Dzeko—who finished in the top six of the EPL’s goal-scoring charts during the 2013-14 season.

Eleven players on the club’s current roster were named to the final 23man rosters for their respective countries at the World Cup. Manchester City’s full roster for the friendly will be announced in early July.

Among MLS leaders • Sporting KC ranks second in clean sheets (seven) and second in goals conceded (14) • Sporting KC ranks second in road wins (four) • Sporting KC ranks third in shots per game (13.9) and first in fewest shots allowed per game (9.3) • Sporting KC ranks first in average possession (56.8%), third in passing accuracy (81.3%) and second in successful passes (5,765) • Sporting KC ranks first in successful crosses/corners (93) • Sporting KC ranks first in chances created from set plays (37), six more than any othe team • Dom Dwyer ranks tied for second in goals (11), first in shots (58), second in shots on target (23), tied for first in multi-goal games (three), and tied for second in game-winning goals (three) • Benny Feilhaber ranks third in fouls suffered (38) • Eric Kronberg ranks first in shutouts (seven) and goals against average (0.88) among keepers with at least 400 minutes played

Dovale began his career in the youth system of Ural CF, a club in his hometown of A Coruña, Galicia, Spain. He then played four years in the Barcelona Academy before signing a professional contract with second division club Celta de Vigo at age 16. He played there for three years before going on a year-long loan to SD Huesca. Dovale returned to Celta de Vigo prior to the 2011-12 season and helped the club earn promotion to LigaBBVA with two goals in 30 appearances.

The midfielder made his Sporting KC debut as a secondhalf substitute in the MLS Cup rematch against Real Salt Lake on April 5 and scored his first goal on May 27 vs. the New York Red Bulls.

The Englishman’s three multi-goal games tie the 2014 MLS lead, while his three game-winning goals ranks second.

Dwyer totalled 26 goals across six competitions in 2013 while splitting time with Sporting KC and the team’s USL PRO affiliate Orlando City SC. He was the USL PRO Championship MVP with four goals in the final and helped propel Sporting KC to MLS Cup by scoring the game-winning goal for Sporting Kansas City in the Eastern Conference Championship.

SPORTING KANSAS CITY The Fire are 25-12-10 in MLS regular season matches against Sporting Kansas City, and an even 8-8-8 record in matches played on the road.

This is the second meeting between the two sides this year. On May 18 the Fire defeated Sporting Kansas City 2-1 at Toyota Park. The Fire will finish out the series on the road at Sporting Park on Oct. 10.

The final stop of Fire Technical Director Brian Bliss’ playing career was Kansas City, where he played his final season for the Wizards in 1998. In 2000, Bliss was appointed assistant coach for the Wizards. In six seasons in Kansas City, the Wizards won the 2000 MLS Supporters’ Shield, 2000 MLS Cup and the 2004 U.S. Open Cup. Forward Quincy Amarikwa’s 45th minute yellow card against Toronto FC on July 2 is his fifth of the season, which will force him to miss Sunday’s match at Sporting Kansas City.

Defender Jhon Kennedy Hurtado will return for this match after serving a one-game suspension for a red card he received against the Seattle Sounders on June 7.

A LOOK AT THE FIRE The Chicago Fire (2-4-9, 15 pts.) entered their 17th season of MLS play after a busy offseason. With two-time MLS Cup champion and two-time MLS Coach of the Year Frank Yallop at the helm, Yallop built his coaching staff to include tremendous experience, naming Ring of Fire member C.J. Brown and 2002 FIFA World Cup veteran Clint Mathis as assistant coaches, and 1988 Olympian and 1990 World Cup defender Brian Bliss as Technical Director. The Men in Red return a strong core of veteran leaders, including 2013 MLS MVP Mike Magee, Jeff Larentowicz, Patrick Nyarko and Gonzalo Segares. Offseason acquisitions Jhon Kennedy Huratado, Patrick Ianni and Lovel Palmer were added to shore up the back line, while the Fire also added talented young players including U.S. Youth International Benji Joya, and Homegrown players Harry Shipp and Chris Ritter.
