Sporting Kansas City Game Notes | August 1st, 2012 vs Stoke City FC | www.SportingKC.com

Sporting Kansas City News, Notes and headlines RESULTS | Sporting Kansas City currently sits in second place of the Eastern Conference with a record of 11-7-4 (37 points). The team had a historic start to 2012, garnering seven straight wins to begin the season. However, Kansas City experienced a slight decrease in their momentum losing three games in a row before earning a draw against Western Conference foe Colorado Rapids at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park.

The momentum was back in Kansas City’s favor as the team won two Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup games against Orlando City SC and Colorado Rapids and added two MLS victories against the San Jose Earthquakes and Toronto FC. Sporting KC then went on the road and earned a tie at CenturyLink Field against Western Conference foe Seattle Sounders.

Sporting KC experienced a second short slump in MLS play, suffering a 4-0 defeat to the Philadelphia Union at PPL Park followed by a 1-0 loss to rival Chicago Fire at LIVESTRONG Sporting Park. However, in between the two MLS matches, Sporting Kansas City hosted the Dayton Dutch Lions in Open Cup competition, in which they earned a 3-0 victory to send them to the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup semi-finals.

Sporting Kansas City got back on track in MLS competition in July when they beat Montreal 3-1 at Saputo Stadium followed by 0-0 home draw with the Houston Dynamo. Sporting KC then went on the road earning a 2-0 victory over the Columbus Crew moving them back up the standings and into sole possession of first place among Eastern Conference rivals before dropping a 2-1 decision against Houston in their first ever match at BBVA Compass Stadium.

Sporting Kansas City returned back to LSP to face the New England Revolution in the first of four consecutive home matches in all-competition. The match resulted in a scoreless draw. Sporting KC then fell to Montpellier Herault SC 3-0 in their first of two international friendlies before losing to Eastern Conference foe Columbus 2-1 despite outshooting the Crew 25-12.

OLYMPIC DREAM | Roger Espinoza and the Honduras Olympic Team have given hope to Honduran soccer fans with their first three results during the group phase of the 2012 Summer Olympics in London. Honduras first tied Morocco 2-2 on July 26 in the Group D opener. Espinoza started and played the full 90 minutes in the first Olympic appearance of his career.

Three days later, Honduras upset a Spain side featuring three players from the team that recently won Euro 2012 to increase their chances of securing a spot in the knockout phase. Espinoza earned the game-winning assist to lift Honduras to the 1-0 victory. Fellow Major League Soccer professional Jerry Bengtson, from the New England Revolution, has scored all three goals for Honduras so far in the tournament. His game-winner against Spain was scored on Manchester United goalkeeper David de Gea following a wellstruck cross from Espinoza.

Espinoza missed the group stage finale due to caution accumulation after acquiring a yellow card in each of the team’s first two games.

Despite Espinoza’s absence, Honduras managed to earn a draw which was enough to qualify Honduras for the quarterfinals against Brazil on Saturday. Espinoza and Bengtson will miss Saturday’s meeting at Gillette Stadium between their two clubs.

LAMAR HUNT U.S. OPEN CUP | Sporting Kansas City advanced to the U.S. Open Cup Final for the first time since 2004 with a 2-0 win over the Philadelphia Union in the semifinal round. Jacob Peterson’s header off a set piece broke the deadlock in the 65th minute, and Graham Zusi’s 60-yard volley into an empty net sealed the victory in stoppage time.

Sporting Kansas City will host Seattle Sounders FC in the final on August 8 at LIVESTRONG Sporting Park. The Sounders have won an unprecedented three straight U.S. Open Cups, and have not lost in the competition since August 12, 2008, when they were still a United Soccer League franchise.

Sporting’s journey to the 2012 final began on May 29 with a 3-2 home victory over USL Pro Division side Orlando City in the Round of 32. A week later, Sporting defeated fellow MLS club Colorado Rapids, 2-0, to advance to the cup quarterfinals for the second straight season. A comprehensive 3-0 win over USL Pro’s Dayton Dutch Lions on June 26 booked Sporting’s spot in the semifinals at Philadelphia on Wednesday.

Seattle reached its fourth consecutive U.S. Open Cup Final with wins over the Atlanta Silverbacks (5-1), Cal FC (5-0), San Jose Earthquakes (1-0) and Chivas USA (4-1). They have now gone 18 matches unbeaten in U.S. Open Cup play.

INTERNATIONAL ATTENTION ON LSP | A pair of international friendlies versus Montpellier Herault SC and Stoke City FC are the latest in a growing list of international events at LIVESTRONG Sporting Park since its opening one year ago. In 2011, LIVESTRONG Sporting Park hosted Newcastle United and CD Guadalajara. Additionally, CONCACAF chose LSP for the 2011 Gold Cup and 2012 Men’s Olympic Qualifying Tournament. The U.S. Women’s National Team played here in September, and the U.S. Men will make their second trip to LSP on October 16th for a FIFA World Cup qualifier.

STOKE CITY FC | Founded in 1863, Stoke City are the oldest club in the Premier League and are led by Manager Tony Pulis and forward Peter Crouch, an England international with 22 goals in 42 appearances.

Since gaining promotion to the Premier League in 2008, Stoke have enjoyed considerable success in England’s top division, advancing all the way to the 2011 FA Cup final against Manchester City. The club also gained entrance to the 2011-12 Europa League, where they progressed to the knockout stages of the tournament before falling in a two-legged series to Spanish powerhouse Valencia CF.
