Sporting Kansas City Finally Stumbles

After getting 7 wins out of 7 matches, to start the season, Sporting Kansas City finally lost one.

But it's surprising that they lost to the bottom team in the Western Conference, Portland Timbers. What in the world is that about?

And how did they lose, you ask?
An own goal.
A spectacular own goal. But being spectacular is nothing. Check out the goal! The defender who scored in his own net either got (stupidly) scared by his own teammate, or he does not belong on a football pitch. This is blooper stuff!

Wow! Chance Myers... What the hell, man?

And Kansas City could not come back after this.

They had the second best start in MLS history, but that's all done now.

American Derby

Sporting Kansas City beat Real Salt Lake in the biggest MLS derby of the season so far.

That's because Sporting KC was top of the eastern division, without having dropped a single point, while Real SL was leading the west with only one defeat in six matches.

But the Kansas City team was to remain the only team with an unblemished record.

Collin scored, after 63 minutes, to lift the hosts to their sixth win in six matches.

And they also had a goal called off in the first half...

Impressive! But it's still very early. And MLS also has play-offs.
