Last night Sporting Kansas City went up against the New York Red Bulls in one of the most challenging matches ever.
Sporting Kansas City is plagued with a lot of injuries, making it very hard for Sporting Kansas City to win. However, the team did tie, 1-1. A lot of the fans had hoped that Sporting KC would win, however, due to the injuries that the team is facing, this did not happen.
According to coach Peter Vermes, the injuries are the reason the team did not do as well as expected.
“The game was really grueling, making it really hard for Sporting or either team to win. It was one of the most challenging games ever,” he said.
The first goal was scored by Sporting Kansas City, Antonio Dovale No. 9. The second goal was scored by New York Red Bulls, No. 99 Bradley Phillips.
According to Mike Petke, head coach for the New York Red Bulls, “Sporting Kansas City is a real tough team, they are real hard to beat. I’m glad we did as well as we did.”
Soon Sporting Kansas City will have a break. This will give the team a chance to rebuild, and to bring back those players who were on the injured list.
