With 72,610 fans in attendance, this was the largest crowd in Missouri history and the third largest attendance for a standalone MLS regular season match. The intense interconference clash swayed in favor of the visitors on the 28-year anniversary of Kansas City’s inaugural MLS match at Arrowhead Stadium in 1996. Despite a brilliant performance from Sporting midfielder Erik Thommy who scored two goals, Miami emerged victorious with three points from a goal and an assist from 2023 FIFA Ballon d’Or winner Lionel Messi and additional strikes from Diego Gómez and Luis Suárez. More soccer will be held at GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium in the near future as it was announced that the 2026 FIFA World Cup will play six matches at the stadium, including one quarterfinal match.
