Alan Pulido was truly in top form as he made his return to the Starting XI, scoring both goals in Sporting Kansas City’s 2-1 win over the Dynamo on Saturday night.
“He’s the deadliest assassin around the goal,” Vermes said after the match. “He’s a special player, that’s for sure.”
But SKC were playing with several reinforcements that have been missing over this tough stretch. Roger Espinoza was back in the mix and an in-form Ilie Sanchez freed up Busio to be a big part of the attack.
