Sporting KC will have 11 games broadcast on national television through NBCSN, ESPN and ESPN2.
Nervy game on the field. Lots of elbows and yellows. Sinovic and the ref had a running conversation that I think eventually led to a very quick yellow for time wasting on a throw-in.AllThingsKC wrote:Sporting KC wins the first leg over Cruz Azul 1-0. They will play @ Cruz Azul next Wednesday.
Oak Park High School's Kevin Ellis scored the only goal.

I was wondering what they were saying. It was hard to tell who was saying what half the time.chaglang wrote:The Azul fans were there in considerable numbers and represented well. Much classier than, say, Fire fans. My inner 15 year old enjoyed them yelling "Aaaaaaaaaaaah... puto!!!" on SKC goal kicks.

RE: Stadium expansionsite selection should be done in the next 30 days, construction beginning next spring. HOF is interesting to us, but we haven't really been approached to do it.
i'd guess the 28k includes SRO since they already average about 20k now...no timetable necessarily....demand in 2015 will probably dictate
probably around 8,000 more seats....
mostly [in the] east [section]. we do have an additional plan that would add a couple thousand above the cauldron
28k is max expansion capacity
While training with Sporting have you found anything similar to your time at Real Madrid?
VM: Yes, the way they understand soccer here in Kansas is very similar to the way we do in Spain. We try to control the game, try to keep the ball away, move the other team and find spaces. I like it here a lot. It’s easier for me to play in this kind of team than a team that's more direct. It's easier for me to play with these guys.
How did Peter Vermes reach out to you to train with the team? What was the process like after you left DC United?
VM: I was training there in DC and I didn’t like it that much because it was very direct. Since they have a difficult situation right now they don’t rely that much on younger guys and they didn’t give us many chances to play. Kansas offered for me to come here and as soon as I heard that I said "Let’s go, like, tomorrow morning."
