NEW YORK RED BULLS vs SPORTING KANSAS CITY RED BULL ARENA, Harrison, N.J.

Sept. 6, 2014 (WEEK 26, MLS Game #246) 7:30 p.m. ET (NBCSN) A huge match in the Eastern Conference playoff race is ahead when the New York Red Bulls meet Sporting Kansas City on Saturday evening at Red Bull Arena before an NBC Sports Network audience. The Red Bulls return home having fallen outside of the top five in the conference and the playoff positions, after their 2-0 loss at D.C. United last weekend. Sporting started a three-game road swing with a third consecutive heavy defeat, dropping a 3-1 decision at the New England Revolution at midweek. REFEREE: Hilario Grajeda.

The teams are meeting for the second time this season. Antonio Dovale scored early in the first half to put SKC ahead, but Bradley Wright-Phillips equalized early in the second half to leave the teams in a 1-1 draw, May 27 at Sporting Park.

Sporting have come away with points on their last three visits to Red Bull Arena, including a 1-0 victory last April 17. The Red Bulls have come away with points on their last three visits to Sporting Park.

After Sporting saw a couple of shots cleared off the line in the early exchanges, they took the lead after just nine minutes. Antonio Dovale took Benny Feilhaber's through ball in traffic, worked his way to a spot just outside the top of the restraining arc and unleashed a left-footed shot that curled into the lower left corner of Luis Robles' goal.

The Red Bulls pulled even five minutes after the break. Bradley Wright-Phillips made a run to take Thierry Henry's through ball, drove on goal and placed his shot from right on the edge of the box just under SKC 'keeper Eric Kronberg.

NEW YORK RED BULLS The New York Red Bulls had their road winless streak extended with a second consecutive loss away from Red Bull Arena, falling 2-0 to D.C. United on Sunday afternoon at RFK Stadium. The Red Bulls are in seventh place in the Eastern Conference with 31 points from 25 matches on the season. LAST MATCH


United finally broke the deadlock in the 52nd minute. A long goal kick from Bill Hamid was nodded on by Fabian Espindola into the path of Luis Silva. He raced into the Red Bulls area, took a touch around goalkeeper Luis Robles and easily slotted it home.

The game was put away in stoppage time when substitute Eddie Johnson raced onto a long ball from midfielder Perry Kitchen and deftly chipped his shot past Robles, who got a hand to the ball but couldn't stop it from continuing over the line.

Hamid made five saves for the clean sheet in the United goal, several of world-class caliber. Red Bulls boss Mike Petke made one change to the team that rolled to a 4-2 win against the Montréal Impact

at Red Bull Arena. Ambroise Oyongo came back into the side in place of Eric Alexander. NEW YORK RED BULLS (4-4-2): Luis Robles - Chris Duvall (Eric Alexander 63), Jamison Olave, Ibrahim

Sekagya (Saer Sene 81), Roy Miller - Lloyd Sam, Dax McCarty, Tim Cahill (Peguy Luyindula 90), Ambroise Oyongo - Thierry Henry, Bradley Wright-Phillips.

TEAM NEWS The Red Bulls saw their league road winless streak extended to five games with the loss at D.C. United. The

visit by Sporting begins a run of six of the Red Bulls’ next eight games to be played in Harrison. “Are they games that will bury us? No. Are they games that will put is in the playoffs? No,” said Red Bulls head

coach Mike Petke. “That’ll be decided once we lock it up, but obviously every game is an important game from now on and we realize that, the players realize that, so we’re taking them as such.”

It was also their second consecutive shutout away from Red Bull Arena, their first shutouts since May 17 and just their fourth shutout of the season overall.

“They took their two opportunities that we pretty much gave them and we had a number of opportunities to put the ball in the back of the net and we just weren’t able to today,” said Petke. “The first half, we hit the post, two open headers in the [six-yard box], two shots from inside the [18-yard box] right to the goalie, then a miscommunication on the first goal and the second goal is garbage time stuff.”

Ambroise Oyongo returned to the lineup, coming in on the left side of midfield. He shifted back to fullback when Eric Alexander came on when right back Chris Duvall was injured.

“I think frustration more than anything,” said Petke. “I can’t put words in players’ mouths or tell you what they’re thinking, but I would imagine some frustration and bewilderment at times, but at the end of the day we have a strong team and we have to step up and prove that. Again, it’s tough to put words in their mouth, but I would expect that they’re determined, that they’re on board, and I’m pretty certain they are. They know what we’re capable of as well as I do, and it’s about no more talking and just getting out and doing it.”

The Sporting match is the first of back-to-back home games against the top two teams in the Eastern Conference, with the return match against D.C. United coming next week at Red Bull Arena. The Red Bulls then travel to Philadelphia – who also sit above them in the conference table.

“It’s now. We have to pick up points,” said Petke. “If not, we have to what no one ever wants to do and that’s rely on other teams to keep losing. We’re not in the mindset to do something like that. We want to take care of our own situation. Do I think this team is capable of making a run? Absolutely, 100 percent. Are we going to? I have confidence we will. I have confidence that we’ll make the playoffs, but at the end of the day, we have nine games to prove that.”

SPORTING KANSAS CITY Sporting Kansas City suffered their third consecutive loss, opening their road trip with a 3-1 loss to the New England Revolution on Wednesday evening at Gillette Stadium. Sporting are in second place in the Eastern Conference with 42 points from 27 games. LAST MATCH

Sporting took the lead after just nine minutes. Center back Matt Besler unloaded a long throw-in from just above the left corner. Revolution midfielder Jermaine Jones got his head to it at the near post, only to deflect it straight back where Sonny Saad nodded it home at the far post.

But the home side drew level just before halftime. Jones unleashed a beautiful diagonal pass from midfield to the feet of Teal Bunbury, who worked a defender in the area before taking a shot that deflected off Besler and past goalkeeper Andy Gruenebaum.

The Revs took the lead three minutes after the halftime restart. Kelyn Rowe, after patiently holding up along the left side, found Lee Nguyen streaking in, and at the top of the box he calmly collected and fired, curling a beauty into the top right corner of the goal.

The home side put away the game in stoppage time as Nguyen collected a second. After creating a turnover on his own and playing a one-two with Patrick Mullins, he took the return pass in the right of the area and shot low inside the far post.

Sporting manager Peter Vermes made six changes to the team that dropped a 3-1 decision to the Houston Dynamo at Sporting Park. Andy Gruenebaum returned between the posts for Jon Kempin, and Igor Juliao,


Jorge Claros, Mikey Lopez, Soony Saad and Claudio Bieler all came into the team, in place of Kevin Ellis, Aurelien Collin, Martin Steuble, and the suspended Benny Feilhaber and Dom Dwyer.

SPORTING KANSAS CITY (4-2-3-1): Andy Gruenebaum - Igor Juliao, Lawrence Olum, Matt Besler, Seth Sinovic - Jorge Claros (Martin Steuble 88), Mikey Lopez - C.J. Sapong, Graham Zusi, Soony Saad (Sal Zizzo 66) - Claudio Bieler.

TEAM NEWS Sporting have lost three league games on the trot for the first time since April 21-May 12, 2012. They have also

lost back-to-back road games, with the New England trip starting a string of three consecutive away games. “I thought we played well. I thought we did well in getting behind them quite a bit – especially with their high line.

Obviously we scored a goal off a set piece, which doesn’t hurt especially because we did it early in the [ninth minute],” said SKC manager Peter Vermes. “The biggest thing I would say is that again, when you give up three goals that are soft, as we did, there’s no chance of winning.”

They have allowed three goals in each of the losses, the first time they have allowed three or more goals in three successive games since the 2001 season, when they allowed 12 goals over three losses to Miami (6/9, 1-5), Los Angeles (6/13, 0-4), and D.C. United (6/19, 0-3).

“When you give up the goals like we did, late in the half, and then start the second half, what you do is give confidence to the other team to push forward a little bit more and now they’re anticipating stuff,” Vermes said. “I thought we found some stuff over the top, but we never really broke through. We actually never really gave anything away except for a few silly mistakes and credit to them, they capitalized on them.”

Said Sal Zizzo: “Right now we are struggling as a group defending. We’ve let up way too many goals in the last three, four, five games, whatever it’s been. We were in a good position before, but teams are starting to catch up on us now. We are aware of this and as a group need to gain confidence in ourselves. If we give up a goal, we can’t be one of that team that fall into that trap, of giving up and are done for the game. I think we need to be the type of team that response and gets a result.”

Soony Saad scored his third goal of the season, his second in the last four matches. Saad has two goals and an assist in those four games, where he’s made three starts.

“We’re just going to keep playing the way we’ve been playing all season. We’re not going to change the way that we played just because of the last couple results. We’re ready to get the taste out of our mouths,” Saad said.

Andy Gruenebaum made his first appearance in four games, since being forced off with a shoulder injury at halftime of the 2-0 loss at Vancouver on Aug. 10.

Aurelien Collin was dropped from the starting lineup, his first league match he’s missed since being forced off May 31 at D.C. United with an injury and missing the following match. “He hasn't been in form,” Vermes said. “It's better sometimes for guys to sit on the sideline and see what's going on, maybe make some decisions from there.”

With Benny Feilhaber serving a one-match ban because of caution accumulation, Jorge Claros returned to the lineup for his first start since Aug. 10. “We'll have to assess who's healthy and ready to go,” Vermes said. “That'll be the first piece, and then I'll make decisions from there.”

RED BULLS FALL 2-0 IN D.C. The New York Red Bulls dropped a 2-0 decision to Eastern Conference-leading D.C. United Sunday afternoon at RFK Stadium. Red Bulls goalkeeper Luis Robles prevented the hosts from getting an early lead in the third minute, going to his left to parry a Fabian Espindola shot away. Later, Espindola fired from outside the box and Robles was able to collect. On the other end in the 19th minute, Thierry Henry slid a through ball to Bradley Wright-Phillips, who pulled one past goalkeeper Bill Hamid and just by the left post. Soon after, Hamid made a terrific save on Wright-Phillips to keep the game scoreless, diving to block the Red Bull forward's header. New York controlled the latter stages of the opening interval and Tim Cahill was able to beat Hamid three minutes from the break as his right footed shot rolled past the United goalkeeper and pinged off the post. United took the lead in the 57th minute. A long ball played into New York's defensive end bounced freely and Luis Silva got to it first, as he rounded


Robles and put it home. With the Red Bulls pressed forward trying find an equalizer, United sealed the three points in second half stoppage time, as Eddie Johnson was able to chip Robles, who got a piece of the attempt, and the ball bounced into the net.

An Overland Park native, Besler became the first player from the state of Kansas to play in a FIFA World Cup when he started all four matches for the United States in Brazil this summer.

The 28-year-old has earned 27 career international appearances with three goals and six assists in a U.S. Men’s National Team jersey.

Taken in the second round of the 2009 MLS SuperDraft as a two-time national champion at the University of Maryland, Zusi has recorded 20 goals and 41 assists in 152 MLS matches (including postseason) over six professional seasons with Sporting KC.

The teams last met in the regular season on May 27, 2014 at Sporting Park. Antonio Dovale scored his first career MLS goal in the 9th minute, curling a left-footed shot past Luis Robles from 25 yards out. Bradley Wright-Phillips equalized five minutes into the second half for his League-leading 11th goal of the season.

Sporting KC was dominant early as Igor Juliao, Sal Zizzo and Benny Feilhaber nearly scored before Dovale’s breakthrough strike put the hosts ahead.

After notching just a single shot in the first half, New York was level with their first shot on target in the 50th minute. Thierry Henry slotted a through ball to Wright-Phillips, who beat goalkeeper Eric Kronberg one-on-one.

Saturday is the second of three meetings between the sides this season. Sporting KC hosts New York in the regular season finale on Oct. 26 at Sporting Park.

Injuries and international duty test Sporting KC’s depth

Through 27 games in the 2014 MLS regular season, Sporting KC has featured 26 different starting lineups. Peter Vermes’ lineup selection has been complicated by several factors throughout the year. In March, the club had to balance multiple competitions during the CONCACAF Champions League quarterfinals. In May, schedule congestion came to the forefront with seven MLS games during the month. More recently, goalkeepers Eric Kronberg and Andy Gruenebaum suffered injuries, giving Jon Kempin his first career MLS start.

To complicate matters, Chance Myers and Ike Opara have suffered season-ending injuries; Matt Besler, Graham Zusi and Lawrence Olum have seen extended international action; and Erik Palmer-Brown, Aurelien Collin, Dom Dwyer and Benny Feilhaber have served one-game suspensions.

As a result, 30 different players have started an MLS match for the club this season, a team record and most in the League. Of those 30 players, 12 were 23 years of age or younger at the start of the season. The club’s defense has been stretched most of all, with eight different players featuring in the centerback position during the 2014 campaign. Overall, 30 players have appeared for the club in an MLS match this year, tied for most in 2014 with Chivas USA.

Success at Red Bull Arena

Since moving into Red Bull arena in 2010, New York has posted a 45-12-20 regular season home record. Only two teams -- Sporting KC and the Chicago Fire -- have registered multiple League victories at the 25,000-seat venue.

Sporting KC is undefeated in their last three contests at New York, including a 2-0 triumph on Sept. 19, 2012 and a 1-0 win on April 17, 2013. The defending MLS champions have notched three straight clean sheets at Red Bull Arena and currently hold a 338-minute shutout streak at the stadium.

Paying the penalty

Sporting KC has earned and conceded six penalty kicks each through 27 matches this year, both tied for second most in the club’s single season history. This follows a League-wide trend, as referees have frequently pointed to the spot in 2014. As of Sept. 4, 106 penalty kicks have been awarded through 243 games (0.44 per game). The whole 2013 regular season had 81 penalties (0.25 per game), while the 2012 campaign had 72 penalties (0.22 per game).

Jimmy Medranda rejoins Sporting KC from USL PRO affiliate

Sporting KC announced on Monday that the club has recalled midfielder Jimmy Medranda from his loan to OKC Energy FC. The 20-year-old will be available for Saturday’s match at the New York Red Bulls.

Medranda joined OKC Energy FC on July 9 and made nine appearances during their inaugural season in USL PRO. He has made five career MLS appearances since joining Sporting KC from Deportivo Pereira (Colombia) in August 2013.

Medranda became the youngest player to appear in a match for the club during the 2013 MLS Cup championship campaign upon his MLS debut last September and started the team’s 2014 home opener for the first of four MLS matches played this season. He most recently appeared for the club in an international friendly against English Premier League champions Manchester City on July 23.

Sporting Park sellout streak

Sporting Park has sold out 50 straight MLS matches, including four playoff games. The last time Sporting KC didn’t play in front of a sellout was March 25, 2012. Since opening in June 2011, the venue has sold out 63 of 71 MLS games and averaged 19,334 spectators, 104.7 percent of its 18,467 capacity.

Through 14 MLS matches of the 2014 home campaign, Sporting Park’s average attendance is 20,172. The stadium’s 109.2 percent capacity this season ranks first in the League (excluding CenturyLink Field in Seattle, where official capacity is 38,500 but expands to 67,000 for select matches).

Dwyer chasing club’s single season scoring record

Forward Dom Dwyer is second in MLS with 17 goals and has climbed into second place on the club’s all-time single season scoring chart. With seven League matches remaining, he needs two more goals to surpass Preki’s single season record of 18 set in 1996.

Both of Dwyer’s goals against Toronto FC on Aug. 16 came from the penalty spot, where he is now six-for-six on the season after becoming the first player in club history to successfully convert two penalty kicks in an MLS match. Dwyer’s six successful penalties are now second most in team history and fourth most in a single-season by an MLS player all-time.

The brace against Toronto was Dwyer’s fifth of the season, most in MLS this year and third on the club’s career charts. Remarkably, all five of those multi-goal games have come against Canadian opposition (three vs. Montreal, two vs. Toronto). Only six MLS players have recorded more multi-goal games in a season over the League’s 19-year history.

In a victory at Montreal on July 12, Dwyer became one of only 10 players in MLS history to score six or more regular season goals against the same opponent in a single year and the first to do so in the League’s expansion era (2005-present).

Spot on for Sporting KC

Dom Dwyer’s six consecutive penalty kick conversions in 2014 continues a recent trend for the MLS champions from the penalty spot. The club has now scored on 13 straight attempts dating back to 2012 -- the longest active streak in MLS -- and has proven successful on 26 of their last 27 penalty kicks dating back to 2007. In addition, the club secured the 2012 U.S. Open Cup and 2013 MLS Cup in penalty shootout wins.

Sporting KC kicks off 2014-15 CONCACAF Champions League campaign

Sporting KC battled to a 1-1 draw against Real Esteli FC on Aug. 19 in their opening game of the 2014-15 CONCACAF Champions League at Estadio Independencia in Esteli, Nicaragua.

The defending MLS Cup champions will now return home for back-to-back CCL matches at Sporting Park, hosting Saprissa on Thursday, Sept. 18 and Esteli on Tuesday, Sept. 23. Both matches will kick off at 7 p.m. CT. Sporting KC will conclude the group stage on Thursday, Oct. 23 at Saprissa.

Esteli and Saprissa kicked off Group 2 action on Aug. 6, battling to a 1-1 draw in Nicaragua. Saprissa then defeated Esteli 3-0 in the return fixture on Aug. 26. The team with the most points at the conclusion of the CCL group stage will advance to the quarterfinal round in early 2015. Sporting KC advanced to the 2013-14 quarterfinals in March against Mexican club and eventual champion Cruz Azul, losing 5-2 on aggregate.

Deportivo Saprissa has won three CONCACAF Champions Cup titles (1993, 1995 and 2005) and won their 30th league title in May to become the most successful club in the history of the Costa Rican Primera Division. Real Esteli, the defending Clausura and Apertura champions in their domestic league, are the only Nicaraguan side to have participated in the competition and have qualified every year since the 2008-09 edition.

Kempin steps between the posts during the month of August

Since the beginning of August, homegrown goalkeeper Jon Kempin has earned MVP honors of the inaugural MLS Homegrown Game, made his League debut, become Sporting KC’s youngest ever starting keeper and posted two Save of the Week nominations.

Kempin, the club’s first Homegrown player upon signing in 2010 at age 17, made his MLS debut in the second half of Sporting KC’s 2-0 loss at the Vancouver Whitecaps on Aug. 10. Replacing the injured Andy Gruenebaum at halftime, he marked his first League appearance with a penalty kick save – and MLS Save of the Week winner – against Darren Mattocks in the 84th minute. The Leawood, Kansas native followed up with another Save of the Week nominee in a 4-1 win over Toronto FC on Aug. 16, denying Gilberto in the 51st minute with Sporting KC up a goal. In his CONCACAF Champions League debut on Tuesday, Kempin made a pivotal save in the 81st minute to keep his team level with Real Esteli as the match ended 1-1.

With Gruenebaum’s status day-to-day (shoulder muscle strain) and first-string keeper Eric Kronberg still out (hand fracture), Kempin assumed the role of Sporting KC’s No. 1 keeper for four matches in all competitions from Aug. 16-29. The fifth-year professional most recently joined the United States U-21 Men’s National Team in April and has also trained with the U.S. U-23 National Team.

Gruenebaum makes history as Sporting KC’s starting goalkeeper

Goalkeeper Andy Gruenebaum became just the second goalkeeper in MLS history (Jorge Campos, 1996 LA Galaxy) to earn regulation wins in each of his first four regulation appearances for a new club. He has a 4-1-1 record since replacing injured Eric Kronberg on July 12. He missed three MLS matches from Aug. 16-29 with a shoulder muscle strain but returned to the lineup on Sept. 3.

Gruenebaum began his 2014 MLS campaign with a 2-1 win at Montreal, then notched three more 2-1 victories against the Columbus Crew (July 16), LA Galaxy (July 19) and Toronto FC (July 26) as Sporting KC surged atop the Eastern Conference standings. The Overland Park, Kansas native previously made 82 MLS appearances for the Crew (including postseason) from 2006-2013.
