A limited number of tickets are available via Ticketmaster.com and the first 10,000 fans inside the stadium will receive Sporting KC sunglasses.
The team then travels to Seattle to take on the reigning Supporters’ Shield and U.S. Open Cup champions Sounders FC (6-3-1, 3rd place) at 9 p.m. on Saturday at CenturyLink Field.
