Sporting KC is making Kansas City notice them
Kansas City is starved for a winner. It’s why we pine for hockey and basketball teams. It’s why we couldn’t stop talking about the possibility of Peyton Manning suiting up for the Chiefs. It’s why each and every year, Joe Posnanski managed to come up with the sportswriter equivalent of a Rube Goldberg theory as to how the Royals might just piece it together.
But Kansas City has a winner right now on the kind of streak that is the envy of soccer fans across the nation. With Sporting KC’s 1-0 victory over Real Salt Lake at Livestrong Sporting Park Saturday, the team improved to 6-0-0 on the season – one of only two teams in the history of Major League Soccer to start a campaign with six straight victories.
