Coming to a decision on a head coach is David Lee's top priority at the moment. #SportingKC

Lots of talks of modernization and use of data and analytics along the way in making the best decisions for the club coming from Illig.

Win number 19. A 13th clean sheet from Lorena.

The Current just keep on rolling. Cooper's goal all they needed. 1-0 final in LA.

love to have NWSL's broadcast partner CBS running a whole CarMax ad during a player substitution and proceed to miss an entire goal by KC Current

What a save from Lorena and Izzy Rodriguez to keep that out. 1-0 massive.

Izzy Rodriguez absolutely got Giselle Thompson there. Not used to seeing that kind of sauce from her.

Mary Long comes off...tough ask for her tonight. Pfeiffer comes off too. Not enough touches out wide for Alex.

And Michelle Cooper scores on her first touch of the game. Great crashing run. 1-0 to #KCBaby

Welp. No shots for the Current in that first half. It's 0-0.

Daniel Sperry @danielsperrykc.bsky.social · 2d

Scott to RB, Izzy to LB, and throw Hopkins left and Pfeiffer right with Mary Long as the nine.

I retract that the Current don't have Bsky. But we still don't have a lineup about 30 minutes (give or take) from kickoff.

Daniel Sperry @danielsperrykc.bsky.social · 2d

The other site is broken and now that the KC Current don't have Bsky, it's gonna be annoyingly difficult to find their lineup pre-match.

Daniel Sperry @danielsperrykc.bsky.social · 2d

It's back and there is still no lineup

The year is 2076 and Sporting KC fans still won't understand that Jake Reid's function is purely on the business side of things.
