Sporting Kansas City’s 2019 season is not going as anyone expected. The club was early season favorites to be competing for multiple trophies. Things actually started pretty promising too. They crushed Liga MX side Toluca FC over two legs in the CONCACAF Champions League and made it to the semifinals of that competition.
They lost their MLS opener in Los Angeles against LAFC after just two days rest. Not a bad loss at the time, especially seeing how good LAFC are. From there they got going in MLS and picked up a few wins and sat in third in the power rankings.
