SPORTING KANSAS CITY NEWS AND NOTES 2016 OPEN CUP RESUMES IN FOURTH ROUND FAMILIAR FOES The Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup has been held annually since 1914 and is open to all amateur and professional soccer teams affiliated with U.S. Soccer. The knockout-style tournament is the oldest ongoing national soccer competition in the U.S. and the world’s third-longest running open soccer tournament. The 2016 edition began with 91 teams, making it the largest field during the modern era (1995-present). This year’s winner will earn $250,000 and a spot in the 2017-18 CONCACAF Champions League.

Sporting KC and Minnesota United FC have met once previously, squaring off in the 2014 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup Round of 32 at Children’s Mercy Park.

The hosts ran out 2-0 winners, receiving late goals from Soony Saad and Alex Martinez to eliminate the Loons. Several current players from both teams appeared in that match (shown in bold italics below) as Minnesota put up a spirited fight before being reduced to 10 men in the 50th minute with Cristiano Dias’ red card.

The fourth round of the 2016 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup will see the 17 MLS clubs based in the United States enter the competition in the round of 32 on Tuesday and Wednesday. The fourth round winners will then be placed in a fixed, 16-team bracket and divided geographically (regardless of league affiliation) into groups of four. A random draw on Thursday will then determine the fifth round pairings within each group.

Minnesota had a flurry of chances midway through the first half, but goalkeeper Andy Gruenebaum snagged Christian Ramirez’s lobbed effort in the 22nd minute and denied Kevin Venegas’ near-post attempt in the 31st minute.

Sporting KC enters the 2016 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup as reigning champions of the tournament. Vermes’ side defeated the Philadelphia Union in a penalty shootout after a 1-1 draw through regulation to win the 2015 final on Sept. 30, effectively clinching a berth in the 2016-17 CONCACAF Champions League.

Misconduct Summary: MNU -- Greg Jordan (caution; reckless tackle) 29 MNU -- Cristiano Dias (ejection; serious foul play) 50 SKC -- Dom Dwyer (caution; reckless foul) 82

Sporting KC is a three-time champion of the tournament — having lifted the Dewar Challenge Trophy on home soil in 2004 and 2012 — third-most among MLS clubs behind Seattle Sounders FC and the Chicago Fire (four each).

Scoring Summary: SKC -- Soony Saad (Lawrence Olum) 76 SKC -- Alex Martinez (Sal Zizzo) 87

2016 AT A GLANCE: SPORTING KC

Sporting KC started hot out of the gates in 2016, winning their first three games and four of their first five to move atop the Western Conference. That stretch included three shutouts from goalkeeper Tim Melia, including a spectacular road performance in a 2-0 triumph over the New York Red Bulls on April 9.

BOLD ITALIC: Player still on team’s roster (SKC had 6 players, MNU had 9)

2016 AT A GLANCE: MINNESOTA UNITED FC

The club’s fortunes have turned south since then. Peter Vermes’ side has gone 1-7-3 in its last 11 matches and went 10 games without a shutout from April 13 to May 27. The rough patch has seen Sporting KC suffer four home losses and score seven goals over 11 games, reaching the two-goal mark just once.

Minnesota began the 2016 NASL season in similar fashion to Sporting KC, opening the spring campaign with a 4-1-1 record including shutout wins in their first three home games. An untimely injury to midfielder Ben Speas led to a dip in form as the Loons took three straight losses from May 21 to June 4, ending any hopes of capturing the spring season title. United most recently defeated Miami FC 2-1 on Saturday to finish fourth in the NASL spring season standings.

Forward Dom Dwyer leads the club with six league goals, while outside back Saad Abdul-Salaam has contributed a team-high four assists. Combative midfielder Roger Espinoza has played at a consistently high level throughout the campaign, while winger Jimmy Medranda has flourished over the last month with a series of eye-catching performances along the left side.

Christian Ramirez leads the club with five NASL goals, while Kevin Venegas has contributed a team-best five assists. Speas has tallied three goals and two assists, and 2015 NASL MVP Stefano Pinho has scored three times.

SPORTING KANSAS CITY NEWS AND NOTES UNITED TOPS SAINT LOUIS FC IN THIRD ROUND DWYER AND FEILHABER TOPPING THE CHARTS Minnesota United FC emerged with a 2-0 road victory over USL side Saint Louis FC in its opening game of the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup on June 1. Second-half goals from Kevin Venegas and new signing Jack Blake allowed United to move on to host Sporting KC at National Sports Center.

Forward Dom Dwyer and midfielder Benny Feilhaber will look to separate themselves from the rest of the pack on Sporting KC’s all-time Open Cup scoring charts. Dwyer is tied as the club’s leading goal scorer in the competition, while Feilhaber sits atop the Open Cup assist chart.

After an evenly played first half, the deadlock was broken in the 69th minute as Minnesota forward Christian Ramirez flicked a pass through to Kevin Venegas, who was making his 100th appearance for the club. Venegas coolly snuck a low shot underneath the goalkeeper to put the Loons ahead.

United exploited Saint Louis FC’s late offensive wave, allowing Danny Cruz to run uncontested down the left side of the field on a counter attack. He curled a low cross to the top of the box where Blake calmly slotted the ball into the net, securing the win for Minnesota.

RARE ROAD TRIP

Saint Louis FC 0-2 Minnesota United FC June 1, 2016 -- Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup Third Round World Wide Technology Soccer Park -- Fenton, Missouri

Sporting KC hits the road for Wednesday’s U.S. Open Cup clash at Minnesota United FC. The occasion marks a rare occurance for Sporting KC, who have played just two of their last 17 Open Cup matches away from home since May 2011. Peter Vermes’ men came out on top both times, defeating the Philadelphia Union 2-0 in the 2012 semifinals and beating the same team in the 2015 final via penalty kicks after a 1-1 draw through regulation. Throw in a 2011 preliminary round win at the Houston Dynamo, and Sporting KC is unbeaten in its last three Open Cup road games. The side hasn’t lost on the road in the competition since the 2009 quarterfinals, a 1-0 setback to eventual champion Seattle Sounders FC.

SPORTING SMASHES 2015 ATTENDANCE RECORDS

In four games leading up to the 2015 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup Final, Sporting KC’s Children’s Mercy Park set single-round, modern era U.S. Open Cup attendance records in the Round of 32, Round of 16, Quarterfinals and Semifinals. In addition to drawing large crowds for the domestic cup competition, Children’s Mercy Park is home to a 78-game MLS sellout streak that dates back to April 2012.

VERMES TO BECOME LONGEST-TENURED COACH IN KC

Sporting KC Manager Peter Vermes has coached 269 matches for Kansas City in all competitions with a 118-87-64 record, one game shy of tying Bob Gansler’s 270-game record as the club’s longest-tenured manager. Last season Vermes passed Gansler as the winningest coach in Sporting KC history, ending 2015 with 90 regular season wins and 113 victories across all competitions.

Vermes’ 95 regular season victories are eighth most in MLS history and fourth most among active coaches behind Sigi Schmid (227), Bruce Arena (195) and Dominic Kinnear (157).

AGAINST LOWER-DIVISION SIDES

Sporting KC is 13-5-3 all-time against lower-division clubs in U.S. Open Cup competition. Peter Vermes’ men have tallied wins against lower-division sides in each of the last five tournaments, but also suffered defeats to said teams in 2011 and 2013. Sporting KC’s 2011 Open Cup run ended in the quarterfinals with a 2-0 home loss to the Richmond Kickers. Two years later, the defending Open Cup champions fell 1-0 to then-USL outfit Orlando City SC at Children’s Mercy Park. Sporting KC last lost to a lower-division team on the road in the 2008 quarterfinals, falling to the Seattle Sounders in penalties after a 0-0 draw.

Since that road defeat at Seattle in 2008, Sporting KC has visited just one lowerdivision club in Open Cup play. That match was coincidentally played at the National Sports Center when Kansas City and the Minnesota Thunder battled to a thrilling 3-3 draw in the 2009 round of 16. Kansas City would win the ensuing penalty shootout and advance to the quarterfinals.

THREE TITLES IN FOUR YEARS

When Sporting KC lifted the 2015 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup last September, it became the fifth MLS club to win three major trophies in a four-year span since 2005, joining Seattle, D.C. United, LA Galaxy and Columbus Crew SC. Should Sporting KC add to its trophy haul in 2016, it would join LA as the only MLS clubs to win four titles in a five-year span since 2005.

ONE PREVIOUS TRIP TO THE NATIONAL SPORTS CENTER

Kansas City will make its second trip to Blaine, Minnesota’s National Sports Center on Wednesday. The club previously visited the stadium on June 30, 2009 for the U.S. Open Cup round of 16, dueling the Minnesota Thunder to a thrilling 3-3 draw. Kansas City prevailed 4-2 in the decisive penalty shootout to progress to the quarterfinals. Current Sporting KC players Roger Espinoza and Graham Zusi started in that match, and Espinoza assisted Kansas City’s opening goal to Michael Kraus in the 17th minute.

Sporting KC Coach Bios | June 15, 2016 at Minnesota United FC | 2016 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup 4th Round Manager | Peter Vermes

Assistant Coach | Kerry Zavagnin Assistant Coach Kerry Zavagnin first joined Kansas City in 2000 as a holding midfielder and was an integral part of the club’s midfield for the next nine seasons, during which time he helped lead the Wizards to MLS Cup (2000) and U.S. Open Cup (2004) Championships. He was named to the MLS All-Star team and the Best XI in 2004. Zavagnin’s primary duties as an assistant include scouting, developing Sporting Kansas City’s younger players, breaking down film and assisting with training sessions, among others.

Peter Vermes enters his eighth season as Sporting Kansas City Manager in 2016. He is tied as the team’s longest-serving manager and his 118 coaching victories in all competitions are the most club history. During his tenure, he has won three major trophies – the 2012 and 2015 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cups 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 five 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 95 regular season wins top the club’s all-time chart and rank eighth most in MLS history. He passed his former coach Bob Gansler as the winningest manager in team history with a 3-1 win over Real Salt Lake on Aug. 12, 2015, his 109th victory in all competitions.

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.

Vermes oversees all soccer operations for Sporting KC, including the active roster 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.

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.

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 was the first time the U.S. had qualified for the World Cup in 40 years and set the stage for the progress of the U.S. National Team. In 1989 and 1990, Vermes became the first American to play in the Hungarian and Dutch First Divisions, playing for Raba ETO and FC Volendam, respectively.

He later spent five years with Figueras of the Spanish Second Division.

Assistant Coach | Zoran Savic Assistant Coach Zoran Savic joined Sporting Kansas City late in the 2009 season after a 30-year career at all levels of the game in the United States. A native of Gornji Milanovac, Yugoslavia, Savic began his journey through American soccer with the Buffalo Stallions of the Major Indoor Soccer League in 1980. Savic would go on to star for several MISL teams, with his most prosperous period coming with the Kansas City Comets, with whom he scored 70 goals in just over 100 appearances from 1982-1984.

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

After retiring as a player in 1991, Savic turned his attention to coaching in the indoor game. Savic led the Kansas City Attack from 1992-1996, winning Coach of the Year honors for the 1994-1995 season while also serving as the team’s General Manager.

Savic later coached the Kansas City Comets from 2000-2005.

Vermes joined Kansas City in 2000 for what would be the most successful seasons of his MLS career. During his first year in Kansas City, he anchored one of the best defenses in league history and won MLS Defender of the Year honors in helping lead the Wizards to the 2000 MLS Cup Championship. He retired in 2002 after appearing in 184 MLS matches and playing more than 16,000 minutes. He was nominated on the players’ ballot for the National Soccer Hall of Fame from 2007-2012. In 2013, Vermes was inducted into the National Soccer Hall of Fame.

Year

In 2007 Savic switched to the outdoor game, joining Chivas USA as an assistant to then-head coach Preki before moving into the commentary booth for Kansas City matches in 2008 and 2009. Savic’s career as a commentator was cut short, however, when newly installed Manager Peter Vermes tabbed Savic to be part of his coaching staff late in the 2009 season.
