The win was Sporting’s first vs. Vancouver since 2012. Whitecaps FC won the lone meeting between the teams last year, a 2-0 win at BC Place on Aug. 10 that is their only win in six matches in the all-time series.

Coaches record: Carl Robinson vs. KC: P2 W1 L1 D0 … Peter Vermes vs. VAN: P6 W3 L1 D2 LAST MEETING (MLS): 7/12: VAN 0, KC 1 (Ellis 52)

The game's lone goal came in the 52nd minute. Whitecaps FC failed to clear a spell of pressure, and defender Kevin Ellis was able to rise between defenders to head home a Krisztian Nemeth cross from the right flank.

SKC goalkeeper Tim Melia was credited with six saves in keeping the clean sheet, also helped with clearances off the line by defenders in each half. Whitecaps FC goalkeeper David Ousted was credited with four saves.

SPORTING KANSAS CITY Sporting Kansas City put an end to their brief two-game winless run, defeating Toronto FC 3-1 on Saturday afternoon at BMO Field. Sporting are in fourth place in the Western Conference with 37 points from 21 matches. LAST MATCH

The visitors took the after they were awarded a penalty kick in the 20th minute when TFC center back Ahmed Kantari was adjudged to have felled SKC defender Kevin Ellis in the area and referee Mark Geiger pointed to the spot. Benny Feilhaber calmly converted the penalty with a low shot down the middle.

TFC responded mere seconds later when a wonderful passing move swept through the middle of the park. Michael Bradley picked up the ball streaking through the center of the field, then slipped it wide to Sebastian Giovinco, who returned the favor, laying a ball into the area for Bradley to slot past KC goalkeeper Tim Melia.

But Sporting nosed back in front in the 29th minute when Krizstian Nemeth got on the end of a Feilhaber free kick, meeting the delivery at the top of the TFC box and looping a header over goalkeeper Joe Bendik and into the net.

SKC sealed the victory in the 87th minute when Jacob Peterson was played down the left side of the area by Amobi Okugo before slipping the ball under the sliding Bendik.


SKC manager Peter Vermes made four changes to the team that played to a 1-1 draw with the Houston Dynamo at Sporting Park. Jimmy Medranda came into the back four for Amadou Dia, Paulo Nagamura started in midfield for the injured Roger Espinoza, and Connor Hallisey and Jacob Peterson started up top in place of Graham Zusi and Dom Dwyer.

SPORTING KANSAS CITY (4-1-2-3): Tim Melia - Chance Myers (Amadou Dia 88), Kevin Ellis, Matt Besler, Jimmy Medranda - Paulo Nagamura (Amobi Okugo 57) - Soni Mustivar, Benny Feilhaber - Connor Hallisey, Jacob Peterson, Krisztian Nemeth (Saad Abdul-Salaam 76).

TEAM NEWS Sporting returned to their winning ways after a defeat and a draw, the club’s first winless run since April 11-25.

They have still lost just two games over their last 17 in all competitions. “It was a really difficult game because they are a good team and we realize that going forward, these are the

types of teams that we are going to be seeing more and more, and we got to have a way to play them and get a result,” said SKC manager Peter Vermes.

Benny Feilhaber scored a goal and adding an assist, the third time this season he’s had at least one goal and one assist in a league game. Feilhaber moved into a tie for the MLS lead with his 12th assist of the season; he has eight goals and eight assists over the last 14 league games, dating back to April 25.

“I'm playing well because of the guys around me. It's about our team for us, and without the guys around me I can't do the things I do,” said Feilhaber. “[Sebastian] Giovinco, you can probably put him on any team and he is going to be a superstar, he is a great player. But our team won out because we all took our responsibilities and we did that effectively. I am very proud of that.”

Krisztian Nemeth scored his eighth goal of the season, his first since June 27. He has two goals and two assists over his last six league games; five goals and three assists in his last eight matches in all competitions.

Jimmy Medranda made his first start since May 20, making his professional debut at left back, playing the full 90 minutes.

Jacob Peterson scored his first goal of the season, his first since last July 26, when he also hit the back of the net against Toronto FC.

“We had to make a few changes even before the game in regards to [Graham Zusi] having to come out. A couple of guys that started the game – Jimmy Medranda's first time playing left back and he had a tremendous performance, so I am very happy for a few guys that played really, really well. Jacob Peterson playing up top and scoring a goal, getting the insurance goal,” said Vermes.

Making his Sporting KC debut, coming on for the final 33 minutes as a substitute, Amobi Okugo collected his first assist for the club, his first since the final game of last season.

On Wednesday, Sporting reached the U.S. Open Cup Final for a third time, coming from behind to defeat Real Salt Lake 3-1 at Sporting Park. After Olmes Garcia gave the visitors the lead, Soni Mustivar leveled terms just before halftime. Benny Feilhaber and Krisztian Nemeth then scored goals five minutes apart in the final 10 minutes to secure SKC’s passage. They will play Philadelphia Union on Sept. 30 at PPL Park in the final.

Here’s the SKC team: Tim Melia, Saad Abdul-Salaam (Marcel de Jong 90), Kevin Ellis, Matt Besler, Amadou Dia, Paulo Nagamura, Soni Mustivar, Benny Feilhaber, Jacob Peterson (Connor Hallisey 63), Dom Dwyer, Krisztian Nemeth (Chance Myers 87).

VANCOUVER WHITECAPS FC Vancouver Whitecaps FC made it three wins in a row and two in a row by shutout, cruising to a 4-0 win against Real Salt Lake on Saturday evening at BC Place. Whitecaps FC are in first place in the Western Conference with 42 points from 24 matches. LAST MATCH

Whitecaps FC were given a glorious opening. Octavio Rivero got caught in a tangle of legs in the box and hit the deck, and referee Chris Penso pointed to the spot. Rivero picked himself up to take his own penalty, slotting home in the seventh minute.

Vancouver found an elusive second goal when Pa-Modou Kah tapped home from close range in the 40th minute after Kekuta Manneh wriggled his way free in the box to play the ball across goal.

Whitecaps FC made it 3-0 just four minutes into the second half when Cristian Techera deftly finished a low Jordan Harvey cross from the left with the outside of his foot at the back post.

The rout was complete in the 68th minute when Techera latched onto a free kick that was headed away from goal, drilling home from just beyond the edge of the box.

The visitors' miserable night was completed two minutes before full time when Abdoulie Mansally saw a straight red cardfor a lunge at Kendall Waston. In the first half, RSL head coach Jeff Cassar had also been dismissed from the proceedings.

Whitecaps FC head coach Carl Robinson made no changes to the team that rolled to a 3-0 win against Seattle Sounders FC at CenturyLink Field.


VANCOUVER WHITECAPS FC (4-2-3-1): David Ousted - Steven Beitashour, Kendall Waston, Pa-Modou Kah, Jordan Harvey - Matias Laba (Russell Teibert 69), Gershon Koffie - Cristian Techera, Nicolas Mezquida (Pedro Morales 63), Kekuta Manneh - Octavio Rivero (Darren Mattocks 76).

TEAM NEWS Whitecaps FC rolled to a third consecutive victory in the win against Real Salt Lake. Whitecaps FC have scored

10 goals in the three victories and won the last two games by shutout; it’s the first time in the club’s MLS history they’ve scored three or more goals in three consecutive games.

The four goals were a season-high for Whitecaps FC; before the two previous matches where they scored three goals, they had hit for that many just once over the course of the season (3-0 vs. Philadelphia, May 9).

“Sometimes it’s your day and other days, it isn’t your day. I think we’ve played a lot better here at BC Place and lost, but that doesn’t matter, does it? But, I would take a 1-0 victory as well,” said Whitecaps FC head coach Carl Robinson.

Said Pa-Modou Kah: “It’s coming together with triple matches with three goals or more. Right now we have to keep on doing it and as long as we finish out chances, we know we can win games. When we have David behind us, with the back four and Koffie and [Matias Laba] – it’s unbelievable to have them in front of us – so for us it’s about finishing our chances when we get them.”

Cristian Techera scored his first two-goal game in MLS, netting the final two goals. All four of Techera’s MLS goals have come over the last 11 games, dating back to May 30.

“Good players play anywhere. He’s a terrific young player. I say he was the best player on the field for me. He really was,” said Robinson. “I’m disappointed that he didn’t get his hat trick, because he turned down an easy opportunity with his left foot. The he went onto his right foot, which shows he’s confident. But he was outstanding. I know he can play across any of the front three positions.”

Octavio Rivero scored his ninth goal of the season, his third consecutive goal from a converted penalty kick, all over the last seven matches.

Pa-Modou Kah made it two consecutive games with a goal, hitting for all three of his MLS career goals in that span. Kah has started three consecutive games after a two-match absence.

Back-to-back is all right, but my thing is defense and whenever we get a goal, it’s a fun thing and it’s a bonus,” said Kah. “To make it two in a row, I might have to do maybe with the shirts off there, selfies are on the jersey backs, so that might help. I hope that we can keep it for the rest of the season.”

On Wednesday, Whitecaps FC got one step to closer to their first major honor while in MLS, reaching a 2-2 draw with the Montréal Impact in the first leg of the Canadian Championship at Stade Saputo. Darren Mattocks (65) and Pedro Morales (72) gave Whitecaps FC a massive 2-0 road lead; Laurent Ciman (84) and Anthony Jackson-Hamel (85) scored a minute apart to leave the tie finely poised for the return match Aug. 26 at BC Place.

Here’s the Whitecaps FC team: Paolo Tornaghi; Tim Parker, Kendall Waston, Diego Rodriguez (Christian Dean 46), Jordan Harvey; Matías Laba (Gershon Koffie 68), Deybi Flores; Russell Teibert, Pedro Morales, Kianz Froese (Kekuta Manneh 88); Darren Mattocks

ABOUT WHITECAPS FC In 1974, Vancouver Whitecaps FC played their inaugural season in the North American Soccer League, and in 1979, the club won the NASL Soccer Bowl championship. Following the demise of the NASL in 1984, Vancouver 86ers were founded in 1986, and from 1987 to 1992, the club won four Canadian Soccer League titles. In 1993, Vancouver joined the North American second division after the disbandment of the CSL. In 2001, the club reverted back to the Whitecaps and the following season added FC to their official name, while creating a full club model that including an extensive youth development and grassroots participation programs, facility development, and community relations to support specific initiatives related to health and wellness through soccer. Whitecaps FC were the 17th club admitted to MLS on March 18, 2009, and on March 19, 2011, Vancouver kicked off their inaugural year in MLS at Empire Field before moving into the renovated BC Place in downtown Vancouver. WFC have improved their point total every year since joining MLS: 2011 - 28 points (6W-18L-10D), 2012 – 43 points (11W-13L-10D), 2013 – 48 points (13W-12L-9D), 2014 – 50 points (12W-8L-14D). In 2012, the Blue & White made history by becoming the first Canadian MLS club to qualify for the MLS Cup Playoffs and returned to the postseason last year. In addition to qualifying for the MLS Cup Playoffs in two of four seasons, the ’Caps have won back-to-back Cascadia Cup titles in 2013 and 2014. 2015 is Vancouver’s 41st season of professional soccer, and 29th consecutive season.

MATCH NOTES HEAD-TO-HEAD Vancouver Whitecaps FC hold an all-time record of 1W-3L-2D against Sporting Kansas City. The ‘Caps have visited Sporting Park twice – a 1-1 draw in July 2013 and a 2-1 loss in June 2011. WFC last defeated Sporting KC in August 2014. The ’Caps benefited from an own goal from SKC and a Darren Mattocks score in the 2-1 win at BC Place. This is the second and final regular season meetings between the two sides this year. LAST MEETING SKC defeated the ’Caps 1-0 in their last meeting on July 12 at BC Place. Kevin Ellis headed in a Krisztian Nemeth cross in the 52nd minute for the eventual match-winner. ’CAPS RECORD WATCH Saturday’s 4-0 win over Real Salt Lake was Vancouver’s 13th of the season, which surpasses their total from 2014 and matches their single-season MLS record.

Cristian Techera’s first goal was also noteworthy, in that it was Whitecaps FC’s 200th goal in MLS (including the MLS Cup Playoffs).
