LAST MATCH RECAP The Portland Timbers picked up their fourth win, and their second road victory of the young season, by scoring three unanswered goals to defeat the Philadelphia Union 3-1 before 15,437 fans at Talen Energy Stadium on April 8.

Three different players scored for Portland in the win, with forward Fanendo Adi tallying his 46th career finish in regular-season play to become the Timbers all-time leader in goals scored across all eras (since 1975). Portland midfielder Darlington Nagbe and defender Roy Miller also scored their first goals in 2017.

NO PLACE LIKE HOME Providence Park opened on April 14, 2011, in front of a sold-out crowd in the Timbers first-ever home match as an MLS team. The club proceeded to sell out all of its regular-season home games in the team’s first six MLS seasons.

Spanning the 2013 and 2014 seasons, the Timbers compiled an MLS-club record 22-game unbeaten streak (12-0-10) at Providence Park from April 6, 2013 to June 1, 2014. The streak ranks as the third-longest all-time in MLS history.

HEAD COACH CALEB PORTER Head coach Caleb Porter enters his fifth season with the Timbers in 2017. Since joining the club for the 2013 season, Porter has compiled one of the league’s top winning percentages among active coaches with a record of 56-39-44, while leading the Timbers to their first MLS Cup title in 2015, two Western Conference Championship appearances and double-digit victory totals in each of his first four seasons.

During his tenure, the Timbers have qualified for CONCACAF Champions League twice (2014-15, 2016-17), finished in the top three in the Western Conference twice and made their deepest run in the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup, reaching the semifinals in 2013.

Porter coached in his 100th game as an MLS coach against Real Salt Lake on Oct. 14, 2015, posting a record of 39-25-36 in those games, which tied Dominic Kinnear for the fewest losses (25) in MLS history in a coach’s first 100 career games. In addition, his .570 winning percentage during that span ranked fourth among then-active coaches through their first 100 games, behind the Bruce Arena (6237-1, .625), Sigi Schmid (52-33-15, .595) and Kinnear (40-25-35, .575).

Ending the 2015 campaign with a nine-game unbeaten run across all competitions, the Timbers lifted their first MLS Cup trophy with a 2-1 win over Columbus Crew SC on Dec. 6, 2015. Portland finished the regular season with an MLS-club-record 15 wins, while also tying for the league lead in shutouts (13).

On the road, the Timbers finished the 2015 season tied for the most road wins (7) in the league.

Porter, who led the Timbers to a club-record 12 home victories in 2016, is a two-time recipient of the Oregon Sports Awards’ Slats Gill Award for Sportsperson of the Year (2013, 2015), becoming the fourth soccer-related figure to receive the honor since it was founded in 1957. On Aug. 6, 2014, Porter helped guide the MLS All-Stars to a 2-1 win over Bayern Munich in the 2014 AT&T MLS All-Star Game at Providence Park.

In his first season with the club, Porter was named the 2013 MLS Coach of the Year after assembling one of the biggest turnaround seasons in league history, guiding the Timbers to a 23-point improvement and a plus-43 goal-differential increase over the previous season. The 2013 club finished atop the Western Conference to secure its first MLS playoff berth and posted a league-best 15 shutouts, including a league-record 11 clean sheets at home.

Prior to joining the Timbers, Porter, who holds a U.S. Soccer Federation “A” license, was one of the most successful coaches in NCAA history during his tenure as head coach at the University of Akron (200612). He compiled a career mark of 123-18-17 and was named 2009 NSCAA National Coach of the Year.

Porter led the Zips to back-to-back NCAA College Cup appearances (2009, 2010) and the school’s first national title in any sport in 2010.

Porter’s coaching career also includes time as the head coach of the U.S. U-23 Men’s National Team during 2012 CONCACAF Olympic qualifying and three years as an assistant coach on the U.S. U-18 National Team (2009-11). Porter was an assistant coach for six years (2000-05) at Indiana University, winning two national championships with the Hoosiers.

Porter graduated from Indiana in 1998 with a degree in sports management. He and his wife, Andrea, have three children – two sons, Colin (8) and Jake (6), and a daughter, Stella (5).

PORTLAND TIMBERS VS SPORTING KANSAS CITY SATURDAY, APRIL 15, 2017 PREVIOUS MATCH - PORTLAND TIMBERS AT PHILADELPHIA UNION (W 3-1) BOX SCORE

MATCH RECAP The Portland Timbers picked up their fourth win, and their second road victory of the young season, by scoring three unanswered goals to defeat the Philadelphia Union 3-1 before 15,437 fans at Talen Energy Stadium on April 8. Three different players scored for Portland in the win, with forward Fanendo Adi tallying his 46th career finish in regular-season play to become the Timbers all-time leader in goals scored across all eras (since 1975).

Prior to Adi’s goal, Portland midfielder Darlington Nagbe and defender Roy Miller also scored for the Timbers (4-1-1, 13pts), recording their first goals of the season. With the finishes from Nagbe and Miller, the Timbers have had eight different players score through the first six games of the season, which ranks as the most in MLS. For Miller, it was his first career goal in MLS. Following a finish from Philadelphia defender Richie Marquez in the 25th minute of play, which marked the first time an opponent has scored first against the Timbers this season, Portland got on the board just seven minutes later when Nagbe picked up the ball just outside the Union’s 18-yard box, firing an effort from distance to beat Philadelphia goalkeeper Andre Blake at the near post in the 32nd minute.

The finish marked Nagbe’s 25th career goal in regular-season play, which ranks tied as the ninth-moist in club history across all eras (since 1975). Additionally, with the goal, Nagbe became the first player across all eras in club history to score in seven different seasons for Portland.

After several chances early in the second half, the Timbers took the lead in the 66th minute when Miller scored the game-winning goal, his first MLS goal in 130 regularseason appearances, flicking a glancing header into the far right corner from the left side of the box. The goal occurred on a well-taken free kick from Diego Valeri, with the midfielder curling a driven set piece to record his third assist of the season, finding Miller surging to the near post.

Substitutes Not Used: GK Attinella, D Myers, D Vytas, F Ebobisse

With two minutes remaining in the game, the Timbers extended their lead to a twogoal advantage when second-half substitute Darren Mattocks was brought down inside the box. On the ensuing penalty kick, Adi placed the ball down the middle of the goal from 12 yards away, sending Blake the wrong way for his fifth goal of the season. Adi’s 46th career finish for Portland surpasses former Timbers midfielder John Bain’s mark of 45 goals (1978-82), set during the club’s NASL era.

Portland Timbers head coach Caleb Porter On the response of the team to come from behind…

“I thought it was a great result. I thought the last 70 minutes we played extremely well on both sides of the ball against a desperate team. A team that needs results, and sometimes those are the trickiest games to play when you play a team that is a bit desperate, a bit wounded, and they certainly came out strong in that first 25 minutes. I thought our guys’ mental strength to respond after giving up a goal on the road, played some really good football in that last 20 minutes of that first half.

We pulled the goal back and then obviously in the second half I thought we were the better team.”

Portland currently leads MLS in points (13), wins (4) and goals scored (16).

For the second time in the club’s MLS era, the Timbers won at an Eastern Conference opponent by multiple goals. The other occasion took place against D.C. United on May 25, 2013.

With three goals on the night, the Timbers have scored multiple goals in consecutive away matches.

Portland’s two road wins are as many as the 10 other Western Conference teams combined in 2017.

Fanendo Adi scored the 46th regular-season goal of his Portland Timbers career, setting the all-time record for the club.

Adi’s goal was his fifth of the season, moving him into a tie with teammate Diego Valeri and Atlanta United’s Josef Martinez for second-most in MLS in 2017.

With his goal, midfielder Darlington Nagbe became the first player in Timbers history to score in seven different seasons for the club.

Nagbe scored the 25th goal of his Timbers career. The goal moves him into a tie with Ryan Pore for ninth-most goals in Timbers history across all eras (since 1975).

Roy Miller scored the game-winning goal, his first ever goal in MLS play. Miller, in his first season with Portland, made his 130th MLS appearance in the match.

With finishes from Nagbe and Miller, Portland has had eight different players score this season, which ranks as the most for any club in MLS. Valeri’s assist was his third of the season, tying him for third-most in MLS.

QUOTES

On Fanendo Adi becoming the Timbers all-time leader in goals scored…

“Plain and simple, Adi is one of the best strikers in the league. He doesn’t get enough credit. I don’t know why he doesn’t get enough credit. He’s starting to get a little bit more. But when you look at how many goals he’s scored and how he’s played in his three-plus years in this league he should get more credit and more respect. He should be mentioned among the top strikers in this league. He’ll keep scoring goals. Hopefully some more people realize just how good this kid is.”

On Nagbe scoring in the first half…

“Yeah, it’s big. Obviously it helps when you get that first one out of the way. It opens the floodgates often times and (Diego) Valeri and Adi got the flood gates open long ago and you see what happens. So, it’s great getting that first goal and it was a huge moment in the match. I thought that turned the entire momentum of the game.”

Midfilder Diego Valeri is 90 minutes away from 10,000 minutes played for the Timbers. With 90 more minutes, Valeri will be the fourth Timbers player to play 10,000 minutes in MLS, joining Nagbe, Diego Chara and Jack Jewsbury.

With a win against Sporting Kansas City, the Timbers will become the first team since FC Dallas (2014) to start a MLS season with five wins in their first seven games. Additionally, the Timbers will become the first team since FC Dallas (2014) to secure 16 points through its first seven games played.

EFFECTIVE PARTNERSHIP Since the beginning of the 2016 season, Portland Timbers forward Fanendo Adi and midfielder Diego Valeri have combined to score 40 goals in 40 regularseason games played. Valeri and Adi’s 40 finishes rank six more than any other set of current MLS teammates during that span, with New York Red Bulls teammates Bradley Wright-Phillips and Mike Grella ranking second (33). Additionally, since joining the Timbers prior to the start of the 2013 MLS campaign, Valeri has recorded the most assists in the league, while also scoring the sixth-most goals in MLS over that timespan.

AWAY FORM With a 3-1 away win against Philadelphia on April 8, the Timbers picked up their 16th away victory since the start of the 2014 MLS season, which ranks as the most in MLS during that stretch, with the team picking up 44 points on the road over the last four seasons (16-26-12). Portland has also scored 63 goals on the road since the 2014 campaign, which ranks as the third-most for a Western Conference team during that stretch. Seattle Sounders FC (78) and the LA Galaxy (66) rank as the only teams in the West to score more away goals since 2014. In addition, the Timbers have also lost the fewest games on the road since the start of the 2013 MLS season, with just 29 away losses in the last five seasons. Sporting Kansas City, the Timbers opponent this weekend, ranks tied with the New York Red Bulls for the third-fewest losses (31) since 2013.

FEWEST LOSSES Since 2013, the Timbers, who have only lost once in six games this season, are tied with the New York Red Bulls for the second fewest losses in MLS in regularseason action (40), and the second-fewest in the Western Conference. During that stretch, only the LA Galaxy (38) have lost fewer matches in regular-season play.

FINISHING PROWESS The Timbers rank second in MLS history for the most goals scored through the first six games to start a season, ranking behind the LA Galaxy who scored 18 goals through their first six games in the 1998 MLS campaign.

DEFENSIVE EFFORT The Timbers rank second in MLS for tackles with 127 in 2017. Additionally, the Timbers are the only team in the league with two players in the top seven for tackles, with Alvas Powell and Marco Farfan ranking among the league leaders.

GOAL-SCORING RECORD Timbers forward Fanendo Adi became the club’s all-time leading goal scorer with a finish against the Philadelphia Union on April 8, recording his 46th goal to surpass the previous mark of 45 goals, set by former Timbers midfielder John Bain during the club’s NASL era. Since joining the Timbers and MLS on May 13, 2014, Adi has scored the second-most goals in the league, with New York Red Bulls forward Bradley Wright-Phillips ranking as the only striker to score more goals (61) during that stretch.

CLUBMAN With a goal against the Union on April 8, midfielder Darlington Nagbe became the first Timbers player across all eras of the club (since 1975) to score in seven different seasons (2011-2017) for Portland. Additionally, with the finish, Nagbe ranks tied for the ninth-most goals scored in club history, with 25 regularseason goals, becoming the fourth player in club history across all eras (since 1975) to record at least 25 goals and 25 assists, joining Diego Valeri, John Bain and Clyde Best.

TIMBERS INJURY REPORT OUT: Gbenga Arokoyo (achilles), Ben Zemanski (adductor) QUESTIONABLE: Liam Ridgewell (foot) * As of April 13, 2017

SPREADING THE WEALTH With defender Roy Miller and midfielder Darlington Nagbe each scoring their first goal of the season on April 8, the Timbers have had eight different players score through their first six games, which ranks as the most in MLS. Additionally, eight different players have also been credited with at least one assist in 2017, Diego Valeri tallying a team-high three assists.

Sporting KC Game Notes | April 15, 2017 at Portland Timbers | SportingKC.com/Game-Notes #PORvSKC: HEAD-TO-HEAD

#PORvSKC: BY THE NUMBERS

Sporting Kansas City is set for a stern test on Saturday night when the side faces the Portland Timbers, the current MLS Western Conference leaders. Sporting KC’s unbeaten start to the season (2-0-3) and sturdy defense will be put on the line against the high-flying Timbers (4-1-1) who lead the league with 16 goals scored.

Sporting KC took on the Portland Timbers twice in 2016, just one week apart and split the season series 1-1-0. On July 31, 2016, Benny Feilhaber’s free kick was flicked home by Jacob Peterson to give Sporting KC a 1-0 win at Children’s Mercy Park. One week later, Diego Valeri, Jack Jewsbury and Fanendo Adi all tallied as Portland exacted their revenge with a 3-0 victory at Providence Park.

In their brief history, Sporting KC holds a 5-3-2 edge over the Portland Timbers, and prior to falling on Aug. 7, 2016, Peter Vermes’ men had gone five games unbeaten against the Timbers since the start of the 2014 season (3-0-2).

Sporting KC has a winning record both at home and on the road in the series, going 2-1-1 in Kansas City and 3-2-1 in Portland. The Timbers are one of six active teams that Sporting KC has a winning record against both home and away.

The two sides have met once in the MLS Cup Playoffs, with Sporting KC falling to a heartbreaking penalty shootout defeat at Providence Park on Oct. 29, 2015 following a 2-2 draw. The Timbers would go on to lift MLS Cup at the conclusion of the season, meaning Sporting KC and Portland have raised the MLS Cup trophy in two of the last four seasons.

Sporting KC Team Stats • SKC is third in MLS in dribbles attempted per game with 21 and is tied for sixth with 8.8 dribbles completed per game.

• SKC’s two goals conceded through five games in the 2017 MLS season are tied for the least conceded in the league. Only FC Dallas - who SKC played to a 0-0 draw with on March 11 - has conceded as few goals.

• SKC has faced the fewest shots in MLS this season with 41, despite playing one more game than their three closest challengers (COL - 42, FCD - 44, ORL - 46).

• Additionally, SKC is in a tie for fifth in MLS with 71 shots, trailing the Portland Timbers, Real Salt Lake, Minnesota United FC and the New York Red Bulls who have all played one game more.

• SKC has faced the fewest shots per game (8.2) and has taken the most shots per game (14.2) in MLS this season.

• SKC (2-0-3) is one of three remaining unbeaten teams in MLS, joined by FC Dallas (3-0-1) and Toronto FC (1-0-4) - both of which SKC has played to 0-0 draws with in 2017.

Date

Sporting KC Player Stats • Goalkeeper Tim Melia has the best goals against average in MLS with 0.40, conceding just two goals this season and posting a league-high three shutouts.

In addition, his 88.24 save percentage leads all goalkeepers to play in at least three games.

Sporting KC Game Notes | April 15, 2017 at Portland Timbers | SportingKC.com/Game-Notes UNBEATEN, STILL

SPORTING KANSAS CITY NEWS AND NOTES the New York Red Bulls and Sept. 18 in a 2-2 draw with the LA Galaxy - which was his most recent assist for the club. Dwyer is the ninth forward to have a goal and an assist in MLS this season.

After Sunday’s 3-1 victory over the Colorado Rapids at Children’s Mercy Park, Sporting Kansas City remains one of three unbeaten teams left in MLS this season. Sporting KC has gone 2-0-3 across their opening five games of the 2017 campaign and are joined in the list of unbeaten teams by FC Dallas (3-0-1, 10 pts.) and Toronto FC (1-0-4, 7 pts.) both of whom Sporting KC has played to 0-0 draws with to open the season.

SINOVIC SLAMS HOME FIRST GOAL

On Sunday night against the Colorado Rapids, Sporting KC left back Seth Sinovic scored his first-ever regular-season goal with the opener in the sixth minute of the contest. The goal came in Sinovic’s 158th regular-season game - 138 for Sporting KC and 20 for the New England Revolution - while it also came in his 150th MLS appearance for Sporting KC (including postseason).

Sporting KC’s regular-season unbeaten streak now stands at seven games, stretching back to last season, while the side has lost just one of its last nine games in all competitions - a controversial 1-0 defeat to eventual MLS Cup champions Seattle Sounders FC in the Western Conference Knockout Round on Oct. 27, 2016.

Sinovic is primarily known for his defensive qualities, having contributed to the fourth most shutouts as a defender since 2010 with 50. On Sunday, Sinovic recorded both a goal and an assist for the first time in his career in all competitions, while becoming just the fourth defender since 2015 to have both a goal and a primary assist in the same game.

The seven-game undefeated streak - which dates back to a 0-0 draw at Real Salt Lake on Oct. 16, 2016 - is tied for the second longest active run in MLS, joined by Toronto FC whose streak also dates back to Oct. 16, and trails FC Dallas who have gone nine games unbeaten since Sept. 17, 2016.

Sinovic now has one goal and eight assists in MLS regular-season play, though he has four total goals - two coming in the Playoffs and one coming in the CONCACAF Champions League - and 12 assists in all competitions for Sporting KC.

Sporting KC has gone unbeaten for more than seven games on six occasions in the club’s history, with the longest such streak lasting 14 games from May 28 through Aug. 3, 2011. The longest unbeaten streak in league history stands at 19 games, a feat performed by Columbus Crew SC (July 3, 2004 - April 2, 2005) and FC Dallas (May 27 - Oct. 9, 2010).

GERSO TURNS ON THE JETS

Winger Gerso Fernandes continues to show off his dribbling ability as the season progresses. Gerso is second in MLS with 22 dribbles attempted across the opening five games of the season, while his 11 completed dribbles ranks tied for sixth in MLS. In addition, Gerso scored his first MLS goal on Sunday night against the Colorado Rapids, sliding home the game-winner in the 58th minute. In 2016, three Sporting KC players tallied game-winners with their first goals for the club: Nuno Coelho (March 6 at SEA), Brad Davis (March 20 vs. TOR) and Jimmy Medranda (July 10 vs. NYC).

IRRESISTIBLE FORCE VS. IMMOVABLE OBJECT

Sporting Kansas City faces a stern test when they take on the Portland Timbers at Providence Park on Saturday night, with the Timbers plundering home a league-high 16 goals in just six games so far this season. On the other hand, Sporting KC has conceded the fewest goals in the league with two - both coming in second-half stoppage time and neither coming from the run of play.

Sporting KC has attempted the third most dribbles per game in the league so far in 2017 with 21, while their 8.8 successful dribbles per game ranks in a tie for sixth in MLS. Columbus Crew SC leads the league in dribbles attempted with 114 while San Jose is first in successful dribbles with 52. The Montreal Impact leads MLS with 22.4 attempted dribbles per game while the Earthquakes lead the league in successful dribbles per game with 10.4.

Portland’s Fanendo Adi and Diego Valeri have both scored five goals this season, trailing only Atlanta’s Josef Martinez for the league-lead, while Adi also leads the league in shots (23) and shots on goal (12).

Sporting KC has allowed the fewest goals (2) and the fewest shots (41) this season, with Tim Melia posting a league-low 0.40 goals against average and a league-high three shuouts to date. Portland is tied for the sixth highest number of goals conceded with eight and has faced the second most shots this season with 76.

The Portland Timbers are 11th of 22 teams in MLS in dribbles attempted with 94, while they are 10th in dribbles completed with 43. Portland are led by Fanendo Adi and Darlington Nagbe with 17 dribbles each, with both completing 10 of them.

STINGY SPORTING

Sporting Kansas City’s backline boasts the most impressive numbers in MLS this season, with the side conceding just two goals through five games in 2017, both of which were stoppage-time consolation goals for the San Jose Earthquakes on March 11 and the Colorado Rapids on April 9.

HISTORY MADE AT CHILDREN’S MERCY PARK

On Sunday night, a 3-1 victory over the Colorado Rapids at Children’s Mercy Park saw Sporting KC match its longest home unbeaten streak in club history. The 12-game undefeated streak equals the run that the side went on from March 8 through Aug. 15, 2015 in the regular season.

Prior to the concession of Florian Jungwirth’s goal against San Jose, goalkeeper Tim Melia had posted a career-high 457 minute shutout streak dating back to last season, while it was the third longest streak in Sporting KC history - trailing only Tony Meola’s league-best 681 minute shutout streak in 2000, and Jimmy Nielsen’s 546 minute streak in 2013.

The current streak - which began with a 2-0 victory over FC Dallas on June 19, 2016 - is the third longest active home undefeated streak in MLS. The Colorado Rapids lead the way in that category, having gone 19 home games unbeaten since their opening home game of the 2016 season, while the New York Red Bulls are unbeaten in 16 games at Red Bull Arena since falling 2-0 to Sporting KC on April 9, 2016.

Sporting KC’s two goals against in 2017 is tied for the fewest allowed in MLS, with FC Dallas also having conceded twice - though Dallas has played one fewer game. Sporting KC has made no changes to the side’s backline through the opening four games of the season, with Melia behind a defense of Graham Zusi, Ike Opara, Matt Besler and Seth Sinovic - all of whom have played the full 90 minutes of every game.

Saturday’s opponents the Portland Timbers are unbeaten in their last eight games at Providence Park, stretching back to Aug. 7, 2016.

MAINTAIN POSSESSION, LIMIT CHANCES

DWYER DAZZLES WITH GOAL & ASSIST

Through the first five games of the season, Sporting Kansas City has attempted the fifth most passes per game in 2017 with 495 - with New York City FC leading the way with 560.6 passes per game. Additionally, Sporting KC is sixth in the league in possession percentage, keeping the ball for 55.01 percent of their games to date.

On Sunday night against the Colorado Rapids, Sporting Kansas City forward Dom Dwyer swept home his first goal of the season with an instinctual strike across Tim Howard to make the score 3-0 in the 85th minute of the contest. It was Dwyer’s 53rd regular-season goal for Sporting KC, and his first since tallying in a 3-1 defeat to the New England Revolution at Gillette Stadium on Oct. 1, 2016.

Without the ball, Sporting KC has faced the fewest shots (41) and shots per game (8.2).

The Montreal Imapct have allowed the most shots (78) and shots per game (15.6) in 2017, while Saturday’s opponents Portland have allowed the second most shots (76) and fifth most shots per game (12.67).

In addition to his goal, Dwyer also added the game-winning assist to his performance.

In the 58th minute, Dwyer spun his man in the midfield and sprinted away from Nana Boateng before sliding a pass through to Roger Espinoza, who in turn set up Gerso Fernandes to score the second goal of the game.

Of the 11 teams with an average possession percentage below 50, eight of them find themselves in the lower half of the league in shots faced per game, while seven are in the lower half of the league in goals conceded. Sporting KC has not only allowed the fewest shots per game (8.2), but has also conceded the fewest goals (2).

It was the third time in his MLS career that Dwyer has notched both a goal and an assist in the same game, having also performed the feat twice in 2016: April 9 in a 2-0 win over 3

BESLER AND SINOVIC RENEW PARTNERSHIP

PLAYOFF STREAK

Since Sinovic made his first appearance for the team on May 28, 2011 after being waived by the New England Revolution earlier in the year, Sporting KC leads all of MLS with 71 shutouts - 10 more than the LA Galaxy in second. Besler and Sinovic have started 110 of the 201 games since the trade, posting 41 of the club’s 71 shutouts alongside one another. Individually, Besler leads the league in shutouts since Sinovic joined the club with 57, while Sinovic is fourth with 50. Besler and Sinovic have started and played the full 90 minutes in each of Sporting KC’s last seven regular-season games, conceding just two goals.

After recording three shutouts in the opening four games on the left side of the defense to open the 2017 MLS season, center back Matt Besler and left back Seth Sinovic have now posted 41 total shutouts in just 110 games where both have started in the regular season.

Sporting KC enters the 2017 season looking to become the sixth club in MLS history to make at least seven straight trips to the postseason. In addition, Manager Peter Vermes would be just the fourth coach to lead the same team to seven straight playoff appearances.

After yet another season of rampant goalscoring, forward Dom Dwyer is now within touching distance of Sporting KC legend Preki for the most goals in both MLS and in all competitions.

Dwyer scored his first goal of the 2017 season on Sunday night to bring his total to 53, and 62 in all competitions. Dwyer sits just 18 MLS goals and 19 strikes in all competitions shy of Preki’s all-time records of 71 and 81, respectively.

The 26-year-old has amassed 51 goals since the start of the 2014 season. Only Bradley Wright-Phillips has scored more MLS goals in that time period than Dwyer, and took home the MLS Golden Boot titles in 2014 and 2016.

SPORTING KC DROPS CONCESSION PRICES

In March, Sporting KC announced that the club is dropping the prices of various food and beverage items at Children’s Mercy Park. Beer, soda and water all saw prices drop anywhere from $0.50 to $3.00, with most items dropping at least $1.50 at an average of 20 percent. The cost of margaritas, hotdogs, bratwursts, chips and grilled cheese sandwiches also dropped anywhere from $0.25 to $1.50 per item, with the new pricing available for the entirity of the 2017 MLS season.

Another factor that comes into play is Dwyer’s longevity. The Londoner is the only Sporting KC player to appear in at least 36 games in all competitions over the last three seasons.

VERMES VERBATIM

Thoughts on the match against the Colorado Rapids…

“Throughout the whole entire game we were good, except for the last 10 or 15 minutes of the first half. We gave some chances away late in the first half. We just let our guard down and Tim [Melia] made a great save. Outside of that, I thought our courage to play was big time, our movement off the ball [was great] and everybody was an option. I think it showed up in many ways. It showed up in our build-up many times in the actions that led to goals. It showed up in the three goals we created because all three of them were pretty special.”

RUBIO REMAINS OUT WITH ACL INJURY

Sporting KC forward Diego Rubio suffered a torn Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) in his right knee during training on Oct. 14, 2016 and remains sidelined for the foreseeable future. Rubio recorded three goals and one assist in 20 appearances across all competitions in 2016 after joining Sporting KC on loan in March. The 23-year-old Chilean completed his permanent transfer from Spanish side Real Valladolid to Sporting KC in September.

On Gerso getting his first goal…

“When he came here, he didn’t have much of a goal-scoring record and I think that had a lot to do with the way he played in the system that the played. The big thing about him that I said to him is he is going to be put in a lot of situations in front of the goal and you need to start finishing them off. You need to start thinking that you have the ability to be a goalscorer and tonight, the goal that he scored, was tremendous.”

In September, Rubio became the first player in club history to score in the MLS regular season, Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup and CONCACAF Champions League in the same year. He opened his 2016 scoring account in a 1-1 draw at Vancouver Whitecaps FC on April 27 and notched the game-winner in extra time of a 2-1 U.S. Open Cup victory over Minnesota United FC on June 15. Rubio then tallied his first goal at Children’s Mercy Park in a 2-1 Champions League defeat to Vancouver on Sept. 13.

On Dom Dwyer scoring his first goal of 2017…

“You use the word finally. I look at it like this. The players that are here on this team, they are here because we have confidence in all of them. And Dom [Dwyer] before today, he had 101 starts and he scored 52 goals for us. So his strike rate is fantastic. Sometimes, goalscorers go through some moments, but the thing that I love about him is he doesn’t shy away from the opportunity. There are some guys that when they get in that situation, they almost pull themselves out of opportunities because they are almost afraid to miss.

The ball he hit to Seth [Sinovic] when he turned and hit it over the top - little situations like that - he was doing the little extra things to help the team as well.”

A native of Santiago, Chile, Rubio has netted 40 goals and added 16 assists since turning professional in 2011 at age 17. After rising from the youth ranks to the senior team at hometown club Colo-Colo, Rubio moved overseas to Sporting Clube de Portugal, where he scored 22 times for Sporting B from 2011-2015. The striker made 20 first-team appearances for Sporting while also going on loan to Romanian side Pandurii Targu Jiu in 2013 and Norwegian outfit Sandnes Ulf in 2014.

Rubio earned three caps for the Chile Men’s National Team in 2011 at age 18 before playing eight matches at the U-20 level from 2012-2013.

Sporting KC Game Notes | April 15, 2017 at Portland Timbers | SportingKC.com/Game-Notes 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 is in his ninth season as Sporting Kansas City Manager in 2017. He is the team’s longest-serving manager and his 130 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 – and finished atop the Eastern Conference regular-season standings in 2011 and 2012. He is the first coach in club history to lead Sporting KC to six 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 105 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 has coached 299 total games during his Kansas City coaching career, most in club history.

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, the Swope Park Rangers (USL) 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.

Assistant Coach | Zoran Savic

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 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 209 MLS matches (including playoffs) and playing more than 18,000 minutes. 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.
