Sporting Kansas City defender Graham Zusi said it best during his weekly appearance on Sports Radio 810 WHB this morning with Border Patrol hosts Nate Bukaty and Steven St. John.
“It seemed like a written script.”
The script Zusi was referring to, of course, was the one that unfolded in storybook fashion Sunday night at Children’s Mercy Park. In one emotion-filled match for the ages against Austin FC, each of the following happened.
For starters, Zusi returned from a long-term foot injury for his first appearance in almost exactly seven months. It was his first match in front of a substantial crowd at Children’s Mercy Park in well over a year.
