MLS GAME INFORMATION

SPORTING KANSAS CITY vs SAN JOSE EARTHQUAKES SPORTING PARK, Kansas City, Kan.

March 22, 2014 (WEEK 3, MLS Game #23) 7:30 p.m. CT (KMCI-38; CSN-CA+) A pair of clubs looking for their first victories of the season meet at Sporting Park when Sporting Kansas City and the San Jose Earthquakes clash on Saturday evening. Sporting are winless in two games to start defense of their title, coming off a late 1-1 home draw with FC Dallas, while the Quakes hit the road after a last-gasp 3-3 draw with Real Salt Lake to start their league season. Both teams come off midweek elimination in the CONCACAF Champions League in clashes against Mexican foes. REFEREE: Ricardo Salazar. SAR (bench): Peter Manikowski; JAR (opposite): Chris Strickland; 4th: Sorin Stoica MLS Career: 181 games; FC/gm: 26.7; Y/gm: 3.4; R: 51; pens: 62 SUSPENDED: none DISABLED LIST: none INTERNATIONAL ABSENCES: none HEAD-TO-HEAD ALL-TIME (48 meetings): Sporting 20 wins (4 shootout), 58 goals…Earthquakes 21 wins (3 shootout), 58 goals…Ties 7 AT KANSAS CITY (24 meetings): Sporting 16 wins (2 shootout), 39 goals … Earthquakes 7 wins (2 shootout), 23 goals … Ties 1 LAST YEAR (MLS): 8/18: SJ 1, KC 0 (Wondolowski 55)

This is the only league meeting between the teams this season. The last time a road team won in the series came all the way back in 2004, when San Jose won at Arrowhead

Stadium. Last year, the Quakes won 1-0 on Aug. 18 at Buck Shaw Stadium. Kansas City has not won in San Jose since Aug. 16, 2000. The Quakes have won nine of the 14 meetings

since in northern California, with five draws. Sporting have a seven-game home winning streak alive vs. the Quakes.

Coaches record: Peter Vermes vs. SJ: P7 W3 L3 D1 … Mark Watson vs. KC: P1 W1 L0 D0 SPORTING KANSAS CITY Sporting Kansas City weren’t able to record their first win in 2014 in their home opener, FC Dallas hitting for a late goal to leave the teams in a 1-1 draw Saturday evening at Sporting Park. Sporting sit in a tie for fifth place in the Eastern Conference with 1 point from 2 games. LAST MATCH

Sporting took the lead in the 81st minute. After a Chris Seitz save on a Jacob Peterson led to a corner kick, center back Aurelien Collin headed home Benny Feilhaber's offering for the opener.

But in the 90th minute, from Michel's free kick six yards outside Sporting's penalty area, Matt Hedges snapped a header of his own past SKC 'keeper Eric Kronberg to force the draw.

Sporting manager Peter Vermes made five changes to the team that suffered a 1-0 loss to Seattle Sounders FC at CenturyLink Field. Mechack Jerome and Seth Sinovic came into the back four for Kevin Ellis and Josh Gardner, Oriol Rosell and Jimmy Medranda started in midfield for Lawrence Olum and Graham Zusi, and Sal Zizzo came into the front line for Jacob Peterson.

SPORTING KANSAS CITY (4-1-2-3: Eric Kronberg - Mechack Jerome, Aurelien Collin, Matt Besler, Seth Sinovic - Oriol Rosell - Jimmy Medranda (Alex Martinez 75), Benny Feilhaber - Sal Zizzo, Dom Dwyer (Claudio Bieler 77), C.J. Sapong (Jacob Peterson 46).

TEAM NEWS For a second consecutive match, a goal in the 90th minute or later cost Sporting points, after they conceded a

stoppage-time winner in the season-opening loss to Seattle. “It's unacceptable and it's not who we are. I'm not happy and the guys know it,” said SKC manager Peter

Vermes. “It's not who we are. We have been very good the first five minutes of every game, the last five minutes of each half, the first five minutes of the second half ... we've been very good. So it's not something that is going to continue, I can tell you that.”

Said defender Matt Besler: “We are frustrated that we have given up the late goal. Anytime plays happen like that you can look at it, dissect it and there are a number of reasons why they happen. But for us as a team, we have to be able to lock a game down.”


Jimmy Medranda was given his first career MLS start; he had played 15 minutes as a substitute in his lone appearance in 2013. Alex Martinez came on for Medranda with a quarter-hour to play for his professional debut.

“For Jimmy's first start in an MLS game, I thought he had a decent game. I thought there were times when he got caught up, but I think that will come with a little more time. With young players it is always that way,” Vermes said. “I thought when Alex entered the field, the first couple minutes you could tell he was nervous, but then he calmed down he started to play. I think both of them have a good future with us and with MLS.”

The Sporting goal from Aurelien Collin ended a 170-minute scoreless streak to open the season. “I actually thought we were patient because we had to be. When a team drops off on you, it's very difficult.

They got numbers behind the ball and we are not a team that is going to whack it up the field, we don't play that way,” said Vermes. “So it's not the easiest of situations. We did break them a few times and get on the counter. When we did, I thought we went to goal very well.”

On Wednesday, Sporting were dumped out of the CONCACAF Champions League, falling 5-1 to CSDC Cruz Azul of Mexico, losing their quarterfinal series 5-2 on aggregate. Benny Feilhaber scored the SKC goal.

Here’s the Sporting team: Eric Kronberg; Kevin Ellis, Ike Opara, Matt Besler©, Josh Gardner (Mechack Jerome 43); Oriol Rosell, Paulo Nagamura (C.J. Sapong 72), Benny Feilhaber; Jacob Peterson, Claudio Bieler (Dom Dwyer 67), Graham Zusi

“We obviously gave up two goals very early which we didn't want to do. Benny does a great job to get us back in the game and we are tied but in the second half I thought they were the better team. We gave four goals from the outside wing channels and that was the difference in the game,” said Vermes.

SAN JOSE EARTHQUAKES The San Jose Earthquakes opened their 2014 MLS season with yet more late dramatics, coming back with two goals for a 3-3 draw against Real Salt Lake on Saturday evening at Buck Shaw Stadium. The Quakes are in a tie for seventh place in the Western Conference with 1 point from 1 game. LAST MATCH

The Earthquakes took the lead in the sixth minute when Chris Wondolowski scored from point-blank range, using his right thigh to redirect Victor Bernardez’s flick header off a long free kick by Shea Salinas.

But Real Salt Lake equalized just five minutes later. Joao Plata laid off a ball into space for Kyle Beckerman to strike with his left foot from 27 yards, putting the ball in off the inside of the right post.

RSL made it 2-0 in the 32nd minute. Plata beat two defenders from the left wing, traded give-and-go passes with Luis Gil and deked a Quakes defender before pulling a 12-yard strike just inside the near post.

Luke Mulholland put RSL up 3-1 in first-half stoppage time, racing past a scrambled San Jose defense to pick up the rebound of Ned Grabavoy’s shot and slot home from 8 yards.

San Jose was given life in the 75th minute when Bernardez connected with a Salinas corner on a near-post run and skimmed his header inside the open back post.

Then there yet again late magic from the Quakes. From a last-ditch cross from Shaun Francis, RSL goalkeeper Nick Rimando tried to punch clear, but the ball barely made it out of the visitors’ goal area, where Bernardez hammered it home with almost the final kick of the game some 5 minutes into stoppage time.

Quakes boss Mark Watson included newcomers Shaun Francis at fullback and Jean-Baptiste Pierazzi in the midfield in his first team of the season.

SAN JOSE EARTHQUAKES (4-4-2): Jon Busch - Cordell Cato, Jason Hernandez (Khari Stephenson 67), Victor Bernardez, Shaun Francis - Atiba Harris (Alan Gordon 63), Jean-Baptiste Pierazzi (JJ Koval 63), Sam Cronin, Shea Salinas - Chris Wondolowski, Steven Lenhart.

TEAM NEWS It was yet more late magic from the Earthquakes. They set a record with nine goals in stoppage time in 2012;

since the start of that season, they’ve scored 17 goals in the 90th minute or later, 15 of those securing points as either late equalizers or game-winners.

“That’s kind of standard stuff around here, isn’t it?,” said Watson. “Once again, we had a great start. It was disappointing to see the game seemingly slip away from us. We got a bit sloppy and dug ourselves a big hole, but once again, our guys found a way to push to the end and get a point out of the game.”

It was the first two-goal game for Victor Bernardez in his MLS career, who was making his 50th league appearance in the RSL game.

“He’s someone that’s very good in the attacking phase of the game, whether it’s free kicks from distance or whether it’s attacking corners,” Watson said. “He’s a big, powerful guy and gets his head on the ball. He was instrumental in getting us back in the game and ultimately getting points out of the game.”

Said Bernardez: “We struggled mightily in the first half surrendering those three goals, but I can’t blame those on our injuries. Instead, we tightened up as a team and you saw a stingy defensive effort in the back line. I can’t say enough about the men who stepped up on defense.”

For the MLS season opener, Watson was forced to run out a makeshift back four, with nominal winger Cordell Cato in at right back, and Jason Hernandez partnering Bernardez centrally with Shaun Francis on the left. Left


back Jordan Stewart, center back Clarence Goodson and right back options Brandon Barklage and Andreas Görlitz were all out due to injury.

“We played with a makeshift backline for most of the game. When Jason [Hernandez] went out, we played with only three in the back; Khari [Stephenson] and I were sitting in the midfield with one in the back and the other in front,” said midfielder Sam Cronin. “They continued to sit off of the ball to preserve their lead, which gave us more time on the ball to shift it wide or play it in the box.”

On Wednesday, the Quakes were eliminated from the CONCACAF Champions League in heartbreaking fashion, losing their quarterfinal series to CD Toluca of Mexico on penalty kicks. After the teams played to a second 1-1 draw at Estadio Nemesio Diaz, the game went into the post-match shootout, which Toluca won 5-4 after an extra round of kicks.

Here’s the Quakes team: Jon Busch, Cordell Cato, JJ Koval, Ty Harden, Shaun Francis, Atiba Harris (Chris Wondolowski 67), Sam Cronin, Khari Stephenson (Jean-Baptiste Pierazzi 102), Shea Salinas, Billy Schuler, Steven Lenhart (Alan Gordon 89).

“We are disappointed to lose. Anytime you get to penalties, it’s anyone’s game at that point. We played very well with a lineup that had not played together at all,” Watson said. “ We stayed disciplined and I am very proud of our performance tonight.

SPORTING KC NEWS & NOTES

Summer in the Soccer Capital series of events announced

Sporting Kansas City announced this week the team’s Summer in the Soc-cer Capital series of events, presented by Sprint, featuring an international friendly against English Premier League club Manchester City on July 23 at Sporting Park and official World Cup watch parties at KC Live! in the Power & Light District.

Sporting KC falls to Cruz Azul in CCL Quarterfinals

Sporting Kansas City’s run in the 2013-14 CONCACAF Champions League ended on Wednesday evening after a 5-1 loss at Estadio Azul. Cruz Azul’s Mariano Pavone had a hat trick as the Mexico side won 5-2 on aggregate and advanced to the semifinals. Sporting KC will participate in the upcom-ing 2014-15 CONCACAF Champions League after clinching a berth by winning MLS Cup 2013. The group stage begins in August 2014.

Sporting KC loans three players to USL PRO affiliates

Sporting Kansas City announced this week that the club has agreed to loan three players to the team’s official USL PRO affiliates. Midfielder Mikey Lopez will join reigning USL PRO champions Orlando City SC. Goal-keeper Jon Kempin and midfielder Christian Duke will be added to OKC Energy FC’s roster for their inaugural season.

Duke, 22, returns to the USL PRO after a successful first professional season with Orlando City SC in 2013. The Overland Park, Kan. native and Sporting KC Academy alum was named the team’s top rookie, contribut-ing one goal and one assist in 22 games and starting in the USL PRO championship.

Kempin will also spend a second straight season in the USL PRO after making 34 saves in nine games for the Lions last year. Sporting Kansas City’s first homegrown player, the 20-year-old Kempin is now in his fifth professional season and will continue his development under OKC Energy FC head coach and former MLS Goalkeeper of the Year Jimmy Nielsen. Kempin, a Leawood, Kan. native, has extensive experience for the United States at the Youth National Team level and most recently joined the U.S. Under-20 Men’s National Team in 2013.

Selected in the first round of the 2013 MLS SuperDraft out of North Carolina as a Generation adidas signing, Lopez enters his second profes-sional season in 2014. The 21-year-old midfielder made his professional debut for Sporting Kansas City in the 2013 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup and his rookie season was highlighted by his participation in the 2013 FIFA Under-20 World Cup. He appeared in all three matches for the U.S. in the tournament after helping to lead the United States to a runner-up finish at the U-20 CONCACAF Championship.

Injury Report Out: Tommy Muller (low back spasms), Tommy Thompson (R knee arthroscopy), Jordan Stewart (R hamstring strain); Questionable: Brandon Barklage (L hip tightness), Clarence Goodson (R calf strain). Last Game Earthquakes 1 (4), Deportivo Toluca FC 1 (5); March 19, 2013; Nemesio Diez Stadium in Toluca, Mexico The Earthquakes pushed Toluca FC to the limit, but fell 5-4 on penalty kicks, following 120 minutes in the CONCACAF Champions League quarterfinals. Ty Harden put the Quakes up 1-0 early the second half to take the lead 2-1 on aggregate in the series. But Isaac Brizuela struck back for Toluca to send the game to overtime. After 30 minutes of scoreless overtime, including a called back Quakes’ goal, Toluca edged San Jose in penalties to advance to the semifinals. In the penalty kick shootout, both goalkeepers came up with saves on the first shooters. The next four players for each team all scored to make it 4-4. In the sixth round, Quakes goalkeeper Jon Busch got a hand on Wilson Tiago’s shot, but it just bounced in. The Quakes final attempt rang off the crossbar.

The Earthquakes stayed in the MLS Cup Playoff race with a key 1-0 win against Sporting Kansas City on in front of a sold out crowd at Buck Shaw Stadium. Chris Wondolowski supplied the firepower on his own bobblehead night, heading home his eighth goal of the season in the 55th minute. That tally moved Wondolowski into a tie with current Real Salt Lake head coach Jason Kreis for No. 4 on Major League Soccer’s all-time game-winning goals list with 31. After a scoreless first half, the Earthquakes didn’t wait long to find the scoreboard. Sam Cronin tried to send a ball into the mix, but it was deflected wide to Steve Beitashour. The 2012 MLS All-Star volleyed in a cross that Wondolowski headed into the corner for his eighth goal of the season.

MISCELLANEOUS NOTES Earthquakes Eliminated from CONCACAF Champions League The Earthquakes nearly pulled off a monumental upset against Deportivo Toluca FC in their midweek road-clash at nearly 9,000 feet above sea level. However, after 120 minutes at Nemesio Diez Stadium on Wednesday and with the aggregate tied at 2-2, Toluca FC advanced with a 5-4 advantage during a penalty-kick shootout. Ty Harden gave San Jose a 2-1 lead in the aggregate in the 56th minute with a header off a Shea Salinas free kick. Toluca FC equalized moments later with Isaac Brizuela finding the net with a volley from outside the area. The Earthquakes appeared to take the lead in the 96th minute when Alan Gordon pounced on a blocked shot and finished from close range, but the linesman’s flag was raised for offsides. Both goalkeepers blocked the first shots they faced during the penalty-kick shootout, but the crossbar denied Shea Salinas in the sixth round to give the hosts a win. Goonie Magic After scoring 95th-minute equalizers in each of their games last week, the Earthquakes boosted their second-half stoppage-time haul to 17 goals in all competitions over the last two years. Fifteen of those goals produced a win or a tie. Stoppage-Time Superlatives Here’s a bit more detail about the Earthquakes’ second-half stoppage-time goals since 2012: -Nine second-half stoppage-time goals during the 2012 regular season, an MLS record, and added one more during the first leg of their Western Conference Semifinal against the LA Galaxy at the StubHub Center on Nov. 4 -6-0-3 in 2012 when they scored in second-half stoppage time -5 goals in second-half stoppage-time in 2013 -2-0-2 in 2013 when they scored in second-half stoppage time -Scored in the 95th minute in each of their first two games of 2014, the first to equalize 1-1 against Toluca FC in CONCACAF Champions League Quarterfinal action and the next to draw Real Salt Lake 3-3 in their MLS opener -8-0-7 in all competitions since the beginning of 2012 when they score in second-half stoppage-time -34 goals during MLS play in the 76th minute or later since the beginning of 2012 -15-0-10 since the start of 2012 when scoring in the 76th minute or later No Place Like Home The Earthquakes are on a 21-game unbeaten streak in all competitions at home dating back to opening day of 2013, a 2-0 loss against Real Salt Lake on March 3. The club is 24-2-14 in all competitions at Buck Shaw Stadium since 2012 and 27-4-14 including matches played at other Bay Area venues. Earthquakes Unbeaten in 11 Games The Earthquakes are unbeaten in their last 11 games dating back to last year.

Their last loss was Aug. 31, 2013 against the LA Galaxy at the StubHub Center. Honduran Golazos Victor Bernardez had his first-career multi-goal game in a 3-3 tie against Real Salt Lake in San Jose’s MLS opener on March 15. The Honduran national teamer scored in the 75th and 95th minutes to rally the Earthquakes from a 3-1 deficit. He also had an assist on the club’s first goal. The pair of goals matches his career high for a single season while with San Jose, a mark he set in 2012. Salinas Notches First Assists of 2014 Shea Salinas recorded his first two assists of 2014 in a 3-3 tie with Real Salt Lake in San Jose’s home opener on March 15. His first came on a free kick, whipping a ball into the mix where Victor Bernardez redirected to Chris Wondolowski for the goal. The next came on a corner kick, this time finding Bernardez for the finish at the near post. Salinas led the Earthquakes with a career-high eight assists in 2013. The multi-assist game was Salinas’ fifth of his career. Salinas Moves Up All-Time Assists List Shea Salinas’ pair of assists in the Earthquakes’ 3-3 draw against Real Salt Lake on opening day moved him into sole possession of No. 10 on the club’s all-time list with 22. He was previously tied with current assistant coach Ian Russell. Salinas trails Brian Mullan by one assist for No. 9 on the list.
