SPORTING KC FELL AGAINST FC DALLAS AT HOME

The visitors found a light in the shadows, since a few minutes before the home team had equalized the score and the offensive pressure was incessant.

For the Texas side, Franco Jara became the figure, scoring a double and reaching five goals on the season. The first came to 41 ' when John Nelson sent a serve that the Argentine finished off with a head inside the small area and that beat the goalkeeper.

Later, two minutes after starting the second half, a series of rebounds from a corner kick left the ball at the feet of the former Pachuca player, who initially fired and scored the 2-0 on the counter.

Those commanded by Peter Vermes did not stop in their attack and were close to getting the comeback. Johnny Russel was the best footballer for Sporting KC after scoring twice.

The Scotsman scored at 52 ' with a whip from the girl's area after a series of rebounds and that hit the post before entering the goal. 30 minutes later, Russell tied his team on a free-kick play, where he headed off the air service, enough to beat goalkeeper Jimmy Maurer and score his fifth goal of the tournament.

With this defeat, the ‘blues’ tied four games in a row that did not beat Luis “luchi” Gonzalez's pupils. Their last home win was in August 2017. In addition, ‘Sporting’ stayed in second place in the Western Conference.

For their next matches, Kansas City will host Orlando City, at Wednesday night’s game. Dallas will travel to Mercedez Benz Stadium to face the current champion, Atlanta United.
