SPORTING KANSAS CITY vs CHICAGO FIRE SPORTING PARK, Kansas City, Kan. Oct. 10, 2014 (WEEK 31, MLS Game #296) 7:30 p.m. CT (KMCI-38; My50 Chi) Sporting Kansas City will try to move closer to securing their playoff future when they play host to the Chicago Fire on Friday evening at Sporting Park. Sporting sit in third place in the Eastern Conference with three games to play, returning home following a scoreless draw at D.C. United last weekend. The Fire were officially eliminated from playoff contention with their league-record 18th draw of the season, after playing to a home scoreless tie with the Montréal Impact.

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; Magee scored again as the teams ended in a 1-1 draw July 6 at Sporting 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: P13 W3 L6 T4 … Frank Yallop vs. KC: P27 W13 L8 T6 LAST MEETING (MLS)  Sporting took the lead in the 33rd minute. Dom Dwyer took the ball away from Fire center back Patrick Ianni 25 yards out from goal, with a clear run at Chicago 'keeper Sean Johnson, and slotted his attempt home from the edge of the area.  The Fire wasted little time in responding, equalizing seven minutes later. Mike Magee slipped through a gap in the Sporting back line, took Alex's pass in space and calmly finished past SKC 'keeper Eric Kronberg from the center of the box.  SPORTING KANSAS CITY (4-1-2-3): Eric Kronberg - Igor Juliao, Kevin Ellis, Aurelien Collin, Seth Sinovic Lawrence Olum - Benny Feilhaber, Paulo Nagamura (Sal Zizzo 80) - Jacob Peterson, Dom Dwyer (C.J.

SPORTING KANSAS CITY Sporting Kansas City collected a second consecutive result on their travels, reaching a scoreless draw with D.C. United on Friday evening at RFK Stadium. Sporting are in third place in the Eastern Conference with 46 points from 31 games.

LAST MATCH  Sporting goalkeeper Andy Gruenebaum made seven saves in keeping the clean sheet.  United goalkeeper Bill Hamid was called upon to make just three saves, but perhaps made the best stop on the night, snatching C.J. Sapong's powerful header from a Dom Dwyer cross.

MLS GAME INFORMATION



Sporting manager Peter Vermes made two changes to the team that fell 3-2 to the New England Revolution at Sporting Park. Lawrence Olum and C.J. Sapong came into the team, in place of Jorge Claros and Benny Feilhaber.  SPORTING KANSAS CITY (4-1-2-3): Andy Gruenebaum - Igor Juliao, Kevin Ellis, Matt Besler, Seth Sinovic Lawrence Olum - Paulo Nagamura, Graham Zusi - Antonio Dovale (Benny Feilhaber 78), Dom Dwyer, C.J. Sapong.

TEAM NEWS  Sporting took points from a second consecutive road match, and now have the third-best away record in MLS (one of three teams above the .500 mark). They are tied with eight road wins along with Seattle. They return home having lost three consecutive games at Sporting Park.  “I thought defensively we were rock-solid,” SKC manager Peter Vermes said. “I thought that from the offensive side, we had incredible movement, especially in the midfield and up front. It was a good game.”  Sporting recorded their second shutout in the last three matches, their only shutouts since the start of July.

Andy Gruenebaum has recorded both clean sheets, and has not allowed a goal in 218 minutes.  “Right now, he's healthy and he's played quite a few games up to this point,” Vermes said. “I just thought it was the right decision. I thought he made a very big save in the first half on [United's Fabian] Espindola, and that's the kind of save that we need to keep us in the game.”  Said Gruenebaum: “We wanted to keep a zero on our end, which we did. Unfortunately, you know, we couldn’t get one on the other. But, it was a good battle, tough conditions. I think we battled through, and it’s a good result for us. We would have liked to have taken away three points and start getting in a winning habit, but I think we played well and I think we’ve been playing well, so I think we need to keep on with the form we’re in.”  Sporting were shut out for the first time since Aug. 23, when they lost 3-0 to D.C. United. They have been shut out by D.C. United in all three meetings this year, having now not scored against United in 352 minutes.  “It’s two top teams in the Eastern Conference going at it late in the year. We are both battling for a playoff spot, and so obviously they clinched tonight and we need to maintain our form and make sure that we do the same,” Gruenebaum said. “So to play in these environments, especially on the road, and not give up a goal is critical. I think we did a great job on that end, now we just need to get one and secure the win.”  With Jorge Claros suspended, Graham Zusi dropped into a midfield role for the first time in four matches while C.J. Sapong came into the starting lineup for the first time since Sept. 3.  Kevin Ellis slotting into central defense alongside Matt Besler for a second consecutive match ahead of Aurelien Collin. Sporting had conceded three goals in each of Ellis’s last two starts in league play.  “I thought Matt and Kevin were excellent,” Vermes said. “They played very, very well. They were excellent.

They didn't give anything away. I thought they anticipated their tackles very well. They anticipated through balls from the other team. I just thought the two of them were very, very good. I thought Matt had a great game.”  Added Ellis: “I felt really comfortable. You can tell from the game, when I went up he was right behind me covering and when he went up it was the same. And, I think we’ll become more familiar with each other the more we play with each other. I think that we did really well.”

CHICAGO FIRE The Chicago Fire had their winless stretch extended to six games with a second consecutive draw, reaching a scoreless result with the Montréal Impact on Sunday evening at Toyota Park. The Fire are in ninth place in the Eastern Conference with 33 points from 31 games.

LAST MATCH  Impact goalkeeper Evan Bush made eight saves in keeping the clean sheet, including stopping a point-blank shot Florent Sinama-Pongolle in the first half, and turning aside Gonzalo Segares in the dying moments.  Fire goalkeeper Sean Johnson made three saves, coming up with an alert stop to keep out Impact substitute Marco Di Vaio with almost the final play of the match and save the single point.  Fire head coach Frank Yallop made four changes to the team that reached a 1-1 result with Philadelphia Union at PPL Park. Gonzalo Segares, Patrick Nyarko, Matt Watson and Florent Sinama-Pongolle all came into the team, in place of Patrick Ianni, Grant Ward, Sanna Nyassi and Harry Shipp.  CHICAGO FIRE (4-4-2): Sean Johnson - Lovel Palmer, Jeff Larentowicz, Bakary Soumare, Gonzalo Segares Patrick Nyarko (Sanna Nyassi 62), Matt Watson, Logan Pause, Alex (Harry Shipp 17) - Quincy Amarikwa, Florent Sinama-Pongolle (Matthew Fondy 79).

TEAM NEWS  With the draw, the Fire added to their all-time MLS record with their 18th draw, but were also officially eliminated from playoff contention with the result.  “Tonight’s game defines our season, if you like,” Fire head coach Frank Yallop said. “Not quite good enough to win the game, but kind of did OK in the match. We’re not quite good enough to win games and see games out.

It’s where we’re at right now, but I’m forever looking for next season and what we need to do, moving forward, as every coach is.”

It was the Fire’s fourth draw in their last five matches, and they are guaranteed to have more than half of their results be ties. They have more points from draws (18) than they do from victories (15, from 5 wins).

“As the game goes, and you’ve been watching enough games over the time following the Fire, there’s a lot of good players playing the game. To get those many ties, I wouldn’t say it’s easy or hard to do, but it’s not usual, said Yallop. “The thing for me is, at least we didn’t lose some of those games where we could’ve, and I think we probably could’ve won a few more that we tied. This is a difficult one, but something we have to work on.”

It was also the Fire’s third scoreless draw this season, out of five defensive shutouts. They won their other two shutouts by 1-0 scorelines.

“I hate ending the season early and having an early offseason. It shows that we have to work harder, and it doesn’t stop at the end of the season, in the offseason we have to continue to work,” said goalkeeper Sean Johnson. “We have search for ways to make ourselves better and to get into the playoffs next season. We don’t just want to edge in, we want to solidify a spot early. It’s up to me and some of the veteran guys to figure that out from an internal standpoint to try and get us going.”

Patrick Nyarko made his first start since May 10, coming in on the right side of midfield. He had made five consecutive substitute appearances after nearly a four-month layoff to injury.

“We had to go on with what we had. If you look at Mike Magee, he's been out most of the season or been struggling with injury most of the season. Patrick Nyarko has been out most of the season, and they're two quality guys that last year I thought did very well for Chicago,” Yallop said. “So, I'm not making excuses, but we didn't get the chance to really change the whole roster over and it's not a slight on the guys we have playing for us, but we need to make changes and get more quality in the side.”

While he went to the substitutes’ bench following three consecutive starts, Harry Shipp came on for Alex very early in the contest, playing 73 minutes.

“He got a big bang on his foot, so it’s pretty swollen,” Yallop said of Alex. “I wouldn’t say it might be broken, the X-rays will show that. But it swelled up pretty good, and he immediately had to come out, so it was a bad one.”

Florent Sinama-Pongolle made his second start in MLS, both in the last three matches, coming into the attack alongside Quincy Amarikwa.

“We made some changes over the last week to the lineups, as I think we have enough guys to cover each position, but we’ve proven over the season that we’re not quit good enough to win a lot of games,” said Yallop.

“We’ll see what we can do in the next few matches, but we won’t completely overhaul the roster to give a bunch of guys games. You’ve got earn your spot and I’m going to continue to do that.”

The rivals last met in the 2014 MLS regular season on July 6 at Sporting Park.

Dom Dwyer and Mike Magee found the back of the net in a 1-1 stalemate.

Sporting KC went ahead after 33 minutes. Dwyer dispossessed Patrick Ianni and calmly finished past Sean Johnson before capturing a celebratory selfie alongside Soony Saad near the South Stand supporters section. The lead was short-lived however, as Chicago pulled level in the 40th minute through Magee.

Fire midfielder Alex created a turnover to earn the assist and Magee buried his shot from the top of the penalty area.

The hosts controlled the second half, to the tune of an 11-2 edge in shots and 79 percent possession, but neither side could conjure a game-winning goal.

Friday is the third and final meeting between the sides this season. Chicago defeated Sporting KC 2-1 on May 18 at Toyota Park.

Sporting KC has sold out 51 straight MLS home games at Sporting Park.

Peter Vermes is in his sixth season as manager, second longest in club history behind Bob Gansler. Vermes’ winning percentage (.554) is best for Sporting KC all-time.

During the 2014 regular season, 30 different players have started a match for Sporting KC, a club record and most among MLS teams this year.

Graham Zusi’s 509 career corner kicks in the regular season are most alltime for Sporting KC and ninth in MLS history.

Graham Zusi is third on Sporting KC’s all-time assist chart with 38 and tied with Chris Klein for second on the game-winning assists chart with 16.

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

If Matt Besler plays on Friday, he will move into a tie for eighth place on Sporting KC’s all-time chart with 149 regular season games played alongside Mo Johnston and Michael Harrington.

Dom Dwyer’s 20 MLS goals in 2014 are first on the club’s single-season goal scoring chart all-time.

Dom Dwyer is ninth on the club’s all-time scoring chart with 22 MLS regular season goals. Graham Zusi is 10th with 21.

Dom Dwyer, C.J. Sapong and Graham Zusi are tied for seventh on the club’s all-time game-winning goals chart with seven.

20-year-old Igor Julio is the youngest player in Sporting KC history to start 20 matches for the club.

sporting kc news & notes Sporting KC renews rivalry with draw-happy Chicago

Sporting KC’s penultimate home match of the 2014 regular season comes against a Chicago Fire team that has lost just once in five visits to Sporting Park and holds a 25-12-11 advantage in the all-time series. Frank Yallop’s men set an MLS record last Sunday with their 18th draw of the season, a 0-0 stalemate against Montreal that eliminated them from playoff contention.

No MLS club has more regular season wins (25) or goals scored (85) against Sporting KC than Chicago. 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.

Reigning MLS Cup champions vie for postseason spot

With three weeks remaining in the regular season, only three clubs have booked their place in the 2014 MLS Cup Playoffs. D.C. United (15-9-7, 52 points) has clinched a berth in the Eastern Conference, while Supporters’ Shield contenders Seattle Sounders FC (19-9-3, 60 points) and LA Galaxy (17-5-9, 60 points) are also assured a postseason spot.

A combination of results this weekend, however, would see Sporting KC qualify for the playoffs with two games to spare.

Sporting KC can clinch a playoff spot for the fourth straight year if: • •

They defeat the Chicago Fire on Friday AND the Columbus Crew loses on Saturday at the Philadelphia Union OR They defeat the Chicago Fire on Friday AND Toronto FC earns two or fewer points against the Houston Dynamo on Wednesday and the New York Red Bulls on Saturday

Ten clubs, the top five in points from each conference at the end of the regular season, qualify for the 2014 MLS Cup Playoffs. The fourth and fifth place teams in each conference will play a single knockout game, with the winner advancing to the Conference Semifinals to face the first place team in the conference. The four Conference Semifinals and two Conference Championships will be decided by two-game aggregate series, with the lower seed hosting the first leg and the higher seed hosting the second leg. MLS Cup will be a single championship match on Dec. 7 hosted by the finalist with the most regular season points.

Sporting KC is one of six teams -- alongside Houston Dynamo, LA Galaxy, New York Red Bulls, Real Salt Lake and Seattle Sounders FC -- to qualify for the MLS Cup Playoffs in each of the last three seasons. Of the six, Houston is currently the only club outside of playoff position.

Sporting KC news & Notes (continued) Dwyer continues excellent run of form

Forward Dom Dwyer has enjoyed a breakout season in his third year with Sporting KC. The 24-year-old tops Kansas City’s all-time single-season scoring chart with 20 MLS goals, while his 21 goals in all competitions are also a franchise best. Dwyer broke the 18-year-old scoring record formerly held by Preki with his 19th League strike against Chivas USA on Sept. 12, then became the team’s first 20-goal scorer on Sept. 26 against the New England Revolution.

Major League Soccer’s Player of the Month for May, Dwyer scored in four straight games from May 10-23, becoming just the third player in club history to score in four consecutive MLS contests. Fast forward to the end of September, and the Englishman not only repeated the feat, but added a CONCACAF Champions League goal to mark five straight games he found the back of the net, tying a club record set by Preki in 1996.

Dwyer is second in the MLS Golden Boot race, trailing New York’s Bradley Wright-Phillips (24 goals) with three games remaining in the regular season. A 2014 MLS All-Star, he is tied for the MLS lead with five multi-goal games (tied for third most all-time in club history) and has appeared in a team-high 30 MLS matches this season.

Sporting KC’s depth tested throughout 2014 season

Through 31 games in the 2014 MLS regular season, Sporting KC has featured 29 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. More recently, goalkeepers Eric Kronberg and Andy Gruenebaum suffered injuries, giving Jon Kempin his first career MLS start.

To complicate matters, Chance Myers and Ike Opara have suffered seasonending injuries; Matt Besler, Graham Zusi and Lawrence Olum have seen extended international action; and Erik Palmer-Brown, Aurelien Collin, Dom Dwyer, Benny Feilhaber and Seth Sinovic have served one-game suspensions.

As a result, 30 different players have started an MLS match for the club this season, a team record and most in the League. Of those 30 players, 12 were 23 years of age or younger at the start of the season. The club’s defense has been stretched most of all, with eight different players featuring in the centerback position during the 2014 campaign.

Sporting KC is just the 14th team in MLS history to start 30 different players in a single regular season. Of the previous 13 clubs to do so, only one has finished the year with a winning record (2008 Chivas USA, 12-11-7). Vermes’ 1311-7 mark this season is no small accomplishment given the forced reshuffling of his squad throughout the 2014 campaign.

Besler moving up Sporting KC’s all-time charts

Sporting KC captain and U.S. international defender Matt Besler has been a regular fixture for the club since he was drafted out of Notre Dame in the 2009 MLS SuperDraft. With a start on Friday, the 27-year-old Overland Park, Kansas native would move into a tie for eighth place on Sporting KC’s all-time chart with 149 regular season appearances (alongside Mo Johnston and Michael Harrington).

This comes one game after he took sole possession of seventh place on the club’s all-time list with 143 starts on Sept. 26. He also currently ranks eighth alltime in regular season minutes played (12,936), a category topped by Sporting KC assistant coach Kerry Zavagnin (20,515).

Kronberg available after long stint out with hand injury

After missing more than two months with a broken bone in his left hand, goalkeeper Eric Kronberg returned to MLS action with a start against New England on Sept. 26. Named the No. 1 keeper at the beginning of 2014, he started the team’s first 17 MLS matches before suffering the hand injury in training on July 9. He leads the League with a 1.00 goals against average among keepers with at least 400 minutes played Major League Soccer’s Player of the Month for June, Kronberg is now in his ninth professional season. The 31-year-old is the club’s longest-tenured player and has remained with his current team longer than any active MLS goalkeeper.

Only one player in club history (Davy Arnaud) has been with the team for more than nine seasons and only three other active MLS players have longer tenures with their teams: Logan Pause (12, Chicago Fire), Landon Donovan (10, LA Galaxy) and Gonzalo Segares (10, Chicago Fire).

Besler nets Team of the Week honors

Club captain Matt Besler earned MLS Team of the Week recognition from muliple publications on Monday after a sterling defensive performance in Sporting KC’s 0-0 draw at D.C. United on Friday. The U.S. international led all players in Week 30 with eight interceptions and nine clearances as the reigning MLS champions secured their second straight road clean sheet. His eight interceptions were most by a Sporting KC player in a single game this year.

MLSsoccer.com, Goal.com, SI.com and BleacherReport.com named Besler to their respective squads. He has received the honor from MLSsoccer.com twice earlier this season (Week 9, Week 18), joining Graham Zusi (four) and Dom Dwyer (three) as the only Sporting KC players to receive the weekly honor at least three times in 2014.

Gruenebaum marks return to lineup with career-high seven saves

Goalkeeper Andy Gruenebaum made the most of his return to Sporting KC’s starting lineup last Friday, matching a career-high with seven saves a scoreless draw at D.C. United. The Overland Park, Kansas native previously notched seven saves on Sept. 5, 2012 as a member of the Columbus Crew. His seven stops were the most by a Sporting KC keeper in a single match since Jimmy Nielsen posted the same number on June 22, 2011.

Starting his 10th match of the year and fifth consecutive road game, Gruenebaum extended the club’s road shutout streak to 217 minutes with his 20th career MLS clean sheet. Four of his saves came against Argentine forward Fabian Espindola, highlighted by his Save of the Week nominee on an attempt from the top of the penalty box in the 28th minute. Gruenebaum -- who at age 31 is the oldest player to appear for Sporting KC this season -- has a 5-3-2 record as a starter in 2014 with 28 saves and a 1.26 goals against average in MLS play.

Caution accumulation rules Sinovic out of Chicago clash

Left back Seth Sinovic will miss Friday’s match against the Chicago Fire due to caution accumulation. The 27-year-old received his sixth yellow card of the season in last Friday’s 0-0 draw at D.C. United.

Sinovic’s omission from the Sporting KC starting XI is a rarity, as the fifthyear professional boasts a team-high 29 starts and 2,575 minutes played in 2014. These numbers come on the heels of a 2013 campaign in which he started 36 MLS matches and played 3,253 minutes (including postseason), most among the club’s field players. Sinovic is the only defender to have started in all nine of Sporting KC’s shutouts this season and has a team-high 68 interceptions.

Sporting KC takes control of CONCACAF Champions League Group 2

Sporting KC has moved into the driver’s seat in CONCACAF Champions League Group 2 after a pair of convincing victories at Sporting Park. The MLS champions (2-0-1, 7 points) defeated Deportivo Saprissa 3-1 on Sept. 18 before dispatching Real Esteli 3-0 on Sept. 23. The results give Sporting KC a threepoint cushion over Saprissa (1-1-1, 4 points), whom they will face in the group stage finale on Oct. 23 in San Jose, Costa Rica. Nicaraguan club Real Esteli (0-22, 2 points) has been eliminated from the competition.

The 2014-15 CONCACAF Champions League Group Stage concludes on Oct. 23. The eight group winners will then advance to the two-legged quarterfinals in late winter 2015.

Sporting KC news & Notes (continued) Paying the penalty

Sporting KC has conceded seven penalty kicks this year, tied for most in the club’s single-season history. This follows a League-wide trend, as referees have pointed to the spot at an increased rate in 2014. As of Oct. 7, 126 penalty kicks have been awarded this year (0.43 per game). The whole 2013 regular season had 81 penalties (0.25 per game), while the 2012 campaign had 72 penalties (0.22 per game).

Spot on for Sporting KC

Dom Dwyer’s six consecutive penalty kick conversions in 2014 continues a recent trend for the MLS champions from the penalty spot. The club has now scored on 13 straight attempts dating back to 2012 -- the longest active streak in MLS -- and has been successful on 26 of their last 27 penalty kicks dating back to 2007. The club also secured the 2012 U.S. Open Cup and 2013 MLS Cup in penalty shootout wins.

Sporting Park sellout streak

Sporting Park has sold out 51 straight MLS matches, including four playoff games. Since opening in June 2011, the venue has sold out 64 of 72 MLS games and averaged 19,337 spectators, 104.7 percent of its 18,467 capacity.

Through 14 MLS matches of the 2014 home campaign, Sporting Park’s average attendance is 20,129. The stadium’s 109 percent capacity this season ranks first in the League (excluding CenturyLink Field in Seattle, where official capacity is 38,500 but expands to 67,000 for select matches).

Besler and Zusi sign Designated Player contracts with Sporting KC

Sporting KC signed defender Matt Besler and midfielder Graham Zusi to long-term Designated Player contracts on July 19. Two members of the club’s 2009 MLS SuperDraft class, Besler and Zusi become the fifth and sixth Designated Players in team history behind teammate Claudio Bieler (2013), Jeferson (2011), Omaro Bravo (2011) and Claudio Lopez (2008).

An Overland Park native, Besler became the first player from the state of Kansas to play in a FIFA World Cup when he started all four matches for the United States in Brazil this summer. The 27-year-old centerback debuted for the U.S. in January 2013 and has 21 career international appearances, including all three knockout round games en route to the 2013 CONCACAF Gold Cup title.

Besler was named captain of the reigning MLS Cup champions prior to the 2014 season and was recognized as the Kansas City Sports Commission Sportsman of the Year in April. Besler has made 158 MLS appearances (including postseason) with two goals and seven assists since being drafted by Kansas City in the first round of the 2009 MLS SuperDraft out of Notre Dame.

Zusi is also coming off a strong performance at the 2014 FIFA World Cup. He appeared in all four games for head coach Jurgen Klinsmann and contributed assists in back-to-back group stage games against Ghana and Portugal. The 28-year-old has earned 27 career international appearances with three goals and six assists.

Taken in the second round of the 2009 MLS SuperDraft as a two-time national champion at the University of Maryland, Zusi has recorded 21 goals and 43 assists in 156 MLS matches (including postseason) over six professional seasons with Sporting KC.

Sporting KC’s USL PRO affiliates end regular season

USL PRO affiliate OKC Energy FC concluded their inaugural season on Sept.

6. Sporting KC captain Jimmy Nielsen ended his first year as head coach with a 9-14-5 record (32 points) as 10th place OKC fell five points short of the eighth and final playoff spot.

Five Sporting KC players -- Christian Duke, Kevin Ellis, Jimmy Medranda, Jon Kempin and Mikey Lopez -- saw action for OKC in 2014. Lopez led the group in goals (one) and appearances (14) and was the only player to also feature for Orlando City SC. Duke led in assists (three) and minutes played (912).

Orlando City SC, meanwhile, lifted their third USL PRO Commissioners Cup in four seasons, ending the regular season at 19-4-5 (62 points). However, the Lions suffered a 1-0 upset loss to the Harrisburg City Islanders in the USL PRO quarterfinals on Sept. 13. Sacramento Republic FC, a first-year expansion team coached by former Kansas City star Preki, won the USL PRO Championship with a 2-0 winover Harrisburg on Sept. 27.

Next year, Orlando City will become Major League Soccer’s 21st franchise and the first located in the state of Florida since the Miami Fusion and Tampa Bay Mutiny folded in 2001.

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. Left back Gonzalo Segares will miss the match due to yellow card accumulation.

This is the third and final match between the two sides this season. On May 18 the Fire defeated Sporting Kansas City 2-1 at Toyota Park courtesy of a Mike Magee penalty kick brace. Magee scored the equalizer in a 1-1 road draw at Sporting Park on July 6.

A LOOK AT THE FIRE The Chicago Fire 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 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.
