RETURN MATCH: 6/25: Sporting Kansas City vs. Vancouver Whitecaps FC, 7:30 p.m. CT (TSN)

Coaches record: Teitur Thordarson v KC: First game … Peter Vermes vs. VAN: First game VANCOUVER WHITECAPS FC Vancouver Whitecaps FC weren’t able to build on their season-opening victory, falling 1-0 to Philadelphia Union on Saturday afternoon at PPL Park. Whitecaps FC have 3 points from 2 games on the season. LAST MATCH

Whitecaps FC went a man down when Eric Hassli became the first player in club history to be sent off. The French striker picked up two yellow cards – one in the 25th minute, the second in the 58th minute.

Union finally took advantage in the 77th minute. Sebastien Le Toux found himself alone in the box with the ball after a deflection bounced right to him. He slotted it over to a wide-open Carlos Ruiz, who had little trouble finding the back of the net for his first goal with Philadelphia.

Whitecaps FC head coach Teitur Thordarson made three changes to the team that defeated Toronto FC 4-2 at Empire Field. Greg Janicki and Blake Wagner came into the back four for Jay DeMerit and Michael Boxall, both on international duty, and Nizar Khalfan came in for the injured Davide Chiumiento.

VANCOUVER WHITECAPS FC (4-4-2): Joe Cannon - Jonathan Leathers, Greg Janicki, Alain Rochat, Blake Wagner - Nizar Khalfan (Long Tan 88), Terry Dunfield, Gershon Koffie, Russell Teibert (Wes Knight 64) - Eric Hassli (sent off 57), Atiba Harris (Camilo 83).

TEAM NEWS After scoring two goals in his MLS debut in Whitecaps FC’s 4-2 season-opening win, Vancouver Designated

Player Eric Hassli was sent off in the 57th minute of the loss at Philadelphia after receiving a second caution. "What happened today was totally unnecessary," said Whitecaps' coach Teitur Thordarson. "This is our own

stupidity. We should have been professional enough to stay controlled. I told Eric straight away I wasn't happy." Missing both starting center backs from the season opener, Thordarson gave a start to Greg Janicki while also

moving Alain Rochet into central defense. Blake Wagner made his 2011 debut at left back. “As a team, we played pretty well defensively,” said Janicki. “It was kind of a defensive battle the whole game.

Neither side was really creating many chances.” Said Rochet to The Province: "We lost the balance from the first game."

Joe Cannon made his first MLS start in more than seven months, after breaking an ankle last summer while playing for the San Jose Earthquakes. Jay Nolly, who backstopped Whitecaps FC in the opening win over Toronto last week, injured his shoulder in training and could not play.

“Now that I’ve been out there, everything is a go. You can’t look back. You work and look forward,” Cannon said.

In addition to needing to replace Hassli, Thordarson could also be forced into a change for strike partner Atiba Harris.

MLS GAME INFORMATION

“Atiba has been recovering from the weekend. Hopefully he will be in training on Thursday,” said Thordarson. “But who will partner him? I need these days coming up to find out. … It will most probably be Long Tan or Camilo.”

Thordarson will also need to find a replacement for Russell Teibert, who will be away on international duty with the Canadian U-20 national team.

Omar Salgado, the No. 1 overall selection by Vancouver in the 2011 MLS SuperDraft, is now available for selection after his international transfer certificate was received. Salgado, however, will likely miss the next three Whitecaps FC matches while with the U.S. U-20 national team.

SPORTING KANSAS CITY Sporting Kansas City went down to defeat for the first time in 2011, falling a 3-2 to the Chicago Fire on Saturday afternoon at Toyota Park. Sporting have 3 points from 2 games on the season. LAST MATCH

Chicago went up a goal and up a man in the 34th minute, when Kansas City Designated Player Omar Bravo was sent off after pulling down Gaston Puerari as he raced into the area on a solo run. Fire forward Diego Cháves promptly buried the resulting penalty kick.

The Fire doubled their advantage in the 40th. Chicago midfielder Mike Videira played Puerari into the left side of the box, and the Uruguayan forward took one touch towards the middle before curling a 15-yard shot past KC goalkeeper Jimmy Nielsen.

Kansas City defender Matt Besler put Sporting on the board just after the break. Fire 'keeper Sean Johnson fumbled a low cross from midfielder Davy Arnaud and Besler jumped on the ball at the back post, tapping in from a few yards out.

But Pappa restored the 2-goal margin with an absolutely fantastic goal in the 59th minute. The Guatemalan midfielder collected the ball in the middle of Kansas City’s half and improbably wove through four Sporting defenders before firing a low right-footed toe-poke inside the left post from the top of the box.

Kansas City pulled a goal back in the 72nd minute. Halftime substitute Teal Bunbury collected an errant pass from Fire left back Gonzalo Segares in the middle of Chicago’s half and coolly slotted a shot inside the left post.

SKC boss Peter Vermes made three changes to the team that recorded a 3-2 victory against Chivas USA at The Home Depot Center. Scott Lorenz and Chance Myers came into the back four and Stephane Auvray into the midfield, in place of Luke Sassano, Julio Cesar and Kei Kamara.

SPORTING KANSAS CITY (4-1-2-3): Jimmy Nielsen - Scott Lorenz (Birahim Diop 84), Matt Besler, Roger Espinoza, Chance Myers - Stephane Auvray (Graham Zusi 69) - Davy Arnaud, Craig Rocastle (Teal Bunbury 46)- Milos Stojcev, C.J. Sapong, Omar Bravo (sent off 30)

TEAM NEWS The match turned late in the first half with the two Fire goals that quickly followed Omar Bravo’s red card. Bravo

will not be available for the Vancouver match. “The positive is they were playing in their home opener and we played two-thirds of a game a man down, and

we still came back to score two goals on them,” Vermes said to the Kansas City Star. “If that doesn’t tell you something about the fight this team has, nothing will.”

The Fire had 12 attempts at goal to Sporting’s 7, and put 7 on target to 5 for KC. “Not once was there anything in our favor throughout the course of the 90-minute match,” Vermes said.

“Everything was against us. It’s hard when you are playing 10 against 11, and you’re just fighting all day long against everything. It got to the point where it was just absolutely ridiculous.”

With 5 goals scored through 2 games, Sporting KC is tied atop the offensive table along with Real Salt Lake. But SKC has also allowed a league-high 5 goals, along with LA Galaxy and Portland.

"We had to take advantage of those chances and when the first goal came, maybe they got a little nervous," Sporting captain Davy Arnaud said to the Chicago Tribune. "We didn't get our heads down and feel sorry for ourselves. The game wasn't over. In the end they were hanging on a little bit."

With center back Júlio César ruled out late in the week after suffering a laceration to his foot that required 18 stitches, Roger Espinoza moved into central defense and Scott Lorenz made his MLS debut at right back.

“I think they did a serviceable job,” Vermes said. “Giving up goals the way we did, it was just a lack of cohesiveness at times for them.”

Teal Bunbury made his season debut after missing First Kick with a dislocated elbow, and scored his first goal of the season. Bunbury scored 5 goals in his rookie season of 2010.

WHITECAPS FC MATCH NOTES

MATCH NOTES• This is the first ever match between Whitecaps FC and a team from Kansas (however, in the 1968 NASL, the short-lived

Vancouver Royals played Kansas City Spurs three times, with a record of 1-1-1. The final meeting was June 26, 1968 at Empire Stadium, and ended a 2-0 Vancouver win).

• Both these teams have a 1-1-0 record so far this season.• Whitecaps FC's next encounter with Sporting Kansas City is on the road on Saturday, June 25, at LIVESTRONG Sporting Park.• Vancouver have a record of 8W-13L-6T against MLS opposition in all competitions and friendlies dating back to 1998. • The Pacific National Exhibition’s Empire Field is a temporary stadium with 21,000-seats in its soccer configuration. It is located

on the site of the old Empire Stadium, which from 1974 to 1983 served as the original home of the Whitecaps when they played in the North American Soccer League. The Empire Field temporary stadium was constructed in just 111 days by Nussli Special Events (Canada) using a modular design developed in Switzerland and it officially opened on June 15, 2010. Its artificial playing surface is FIFA-approved 2-Star FieldTurf.

WHITECAPS FC NOTES• Vancouver Whitecaps FC are the 17th team admitted to MLS. This is the league's 16th season, having begun play in 1996.

MLS now has 18 teams. In comparison, when Vancouver joined the NASL in 1974, that league was only starting its seventh season, and had 15 teams.

• Whitecaps FC are only the third MLS expansion team to win their inaugural league match. The others were Chicago in 1998 (finished 20-12 en route to an MLS Cup title) and Seattle in 2009 (12-7-11).

• Designated Player signing and leading scorer, forward Eric Hassli is suspended for this game after receiving two yellow cards in Whitecaps FC's 0-1 loss away to Philadelphia Union last Saturday.

• Defender #4 Alain Rochat made the MLSsoccer.com Team of the Week for week two for his strong play in the 1-0 loss in Philadelphia.

• Forward #9 Atiba Harris netted the game-winning goal and two assists in his 'Caps debut against Toronto FC two weeks ago. • Defender and captain #6 Jay DeMerit is back from international duty with the US national team where he played in a 1-1 draw

against Argentina in East Rutherford, New Jersey and a 0-1 loss to Paraguay in Nashville, Tennessee this past Tuesday. DeMerit came out of the game in the 41st minute against Paraguay with a slight strained groin..

• Defender #2 Michael Boxall is also back from international duty, having earned his first call-up to the full New Zealand squad for a 1-1 draw away to China in a friendly.

• Winger Russell Teibert is away with Canada's U-20 squad at the 2011 CONCACAF U-20 Championship in Guatemala. Teibert set up both of Canada's goals in a 2-1 win over Guadeloupe on Monday to open the competition.

• Forward Omar Salgado is with the USA U-20 squad for the 2011 CONCACAF U-20 Championship in Guatemala. The 17-year-old is the youngest player on the US team by more than six months. Salgado played 20 minutes as a sub in the USA's 4-0 win over Suriname on Tuesday. He is one of eight MLS players on the US team. Salgado was recently cleared by FIFA to play for Whitecaps FC this season without having to wait until he turns 18.

• Forward #23 Tan Long turned 23 on Friday. He became the first Chinese-born player to appear in MLS history last Saturday in Philadelphia when he subbed in at 88'.

• In 11 preseason matches this year, Whitecaps FC had a record of 4W-5L-2D. Vancouver's final preseason match was a 1-0 loss to defending MLS champion Colorado Rapids at Vancouver's Empire Field in a closed-door friendly.

• Last season in the United States Soccer Federation Division-2, Vancouver finished with a record of 10W-5L-15T, good for fifth place. The Whitecaps lost in the playoff semi-finals to Puerto Rico Islanders 2-0 on aggregate in extra time.

• This is Vancouver's 36th season of professional soccer, and 25th consecutive season. The Whitecaps are the longest running pro soccer club in US and Canadian history.

• Head coach Teitur Thordarson is a former Iceland international and has 20 years of pro European coaching experience, including eleven in Norway's top flight, and was head coach of Estonia's National Team (1996-99).

KANSAS CITY NOTES• Formerly known as Kansas City Wizards, the team was renamed Sporting Kansas City last November, in recognition of the

sporting culture of the Kansas City area. European clubs often have the word sporting, athletic, or equivalent at the start of their name, with soccer just one facet of a multi-sport organisation (eg Sporting Lisbon, Sporting Gijon, SC Braga, Athletic Bilbao, Atletico Madrid, SS Lazio).

• Kansas City are an original member of MLS, having started in 1996. This is their 16th season.• Designated player Omar Bravo is suspended for this game after the Mexican striker was sent off in last weekend's 3-2 defeat

in Chicago.• Goalkeeper Eric Kronberg has unpleasant memories of playing against Whitecaps FC in 2006 when he was on loan with

Miami FC in the USL First Division. In an August 6, 2006, encounter in Miami, Kronberg left the game on a stretcher at 32' after a collision with Vancouver's David Testo, who scored on the play to give Vancouver a 2-1 lead. Whitecaps FC went on to win the game 3-2. Kronberg and Miami then faced Vancouver in the first round playoffs, and was beaten for six goals over two games in Whitecaps FC's 6-1 aggregate win (4-1 in Vancouver and 2-0 in Miami).

• Defender #24 Scott Lorenz was with NSC Minnesota Stars of USSF Division-2 last season, playing twice against Whitecaps FC in Minnesota, and watching from the bench in a game at Burnaby's Swangard Stadium.

• Forward #9 Teal Bunbury is the son of former Canadian international star striker Alex Bunbury. Though born in Hamilton, ON, Teal Bunbury has lived most of his life in the US and plays for the US national team.

When LAST TheY MeT... KAMArA reAdY To reTurn | Sporting Kansas City striker Kei Kamara will be available for selection by Manager Peter Vermes after representing Sierra Leone on Sunday in an African Cup of Nations qualifier in Niger. Kamara earned his seventh international appearance, playing 15 minutes as a second-half substitute in the team’s 3-1 loss.

Kamara is coming off a career year, scoring a team-high 10 goals and six assists in 2010. Both marks were personal career-highs for Kamara, now in his sixth year in MLS.

ThoMAS CAPTAinS jAMAiCA | Sporting Kansas City veteran defender Shavar Thomas is also returning from international duty after captaining Jamaica in a pair of friendlies. Jamaica fell 2-0 to Venezuela last Friday but rebounded with a 3-2 away victory over El Salvador on Tuesday. Thomas, in his ninth MLS season, played the full 90 in both matches and has now made more than 30 ap-pearances for Jamaica, ranked No. 48 in the latest FIFA rankings.

BunBurY reTurnS WiTh A BAnG | Sporting Kansas City strik-er Teal Bunbury scored on his 2011 debut last Saturday in his re-turn from a dislocated elbow suffered during pre-season.

Bunbury intercepted a pass from Chicago Fire defender Gonzalo Segares and slotted his shot past goalkeeper Sean Johnson for the game’s final goal.

The fourth overall draft pick in the 2010 SuperDraft out of Akron, Bunbury enjoyed a standout rookie season with five goals and two assists in 26 appearances. He also became the youngest player in Kansas City history to record an assist at 20 years, 77 days in Kansas City’s 2-1 loss at D.C. United on May 5. His five goals last season were the most by a KC rookie since Scott Sealy scored nine times in 2005.

During the offseason, Bunbury made his international debut for the U.S. Men’s National Team in a friendly against South Africa in November and scored in his second appearance on a penalty kick against Chile at The Home Depot Center in January.

SAPonG ShoWS ProMiSe | Sporting Kansas City striker C.J. Sapong scored in the second minute of his first ever professional match in week one, powering a shot past Chivas USA goalkeeper Zach Thornton under 1 minute, 45 seconds into the season opener. It goes into the MLS record books as the fastest goal ever scored by a rookie who started in their debut, besting the mark set by teammate Michael Harrington who scored in the third minute of his debut in 2007.
