Two Western Conference foes will square off – with a twist – as Sporting Kansas City and the Houston Dynamo meet twice in the 2019 Mobile Mini Sun Cup as part of Preseason presented by Advocare at Kino North Stadium in Tucson Wednesday evening. The match will serve as a Concacaf Champions League Round of 16 tuneup for both sides, who will actually be playing two concurrent, split-squad games. One of the games will be streamed, while fans can follow updates from the other on team social media.
Sporting Kansas City
Is there any stock to be taken from an undefeated preseason? That's where SKC is right now, a perfect 4W-0L-0T following a 3-2 win over Phoenix Rising last week.
Expect Peter Vermes, who recently talked roster building and recruiting in an extensive interview, to field a first-choice starting XI in one of the contests.
Houston Dynamo
The Dynamo rallied from a two-goal deficit after 18 minutes to defeat the Seattle Sounders FC, 3-2, at the Mobile Mini Sun Cup despite ending with 10 men Saturday night.
The winning goal was scored two minutes from full time by Marlon Hairston, who is enjoying his new digs.
