Sporting KC clinches home playoff game, vaults to first place with 3-0 win at FC Dallas

The Audi MLS Cup Playoffs are coming back to Children’s Mercy Park.

Sporting Kansas City earned a resounding 3-0 road win over FC Dallas on Sunday at Toyota Stadium, receiving goals from Daniel Salloi, Roger Espinoza and Johnny Russell to leapfrog their opponents for first place in the Western Conference.

The victory ensures that Sporting KC can finish no worse than fourth place in the West heading into next Sunday’s all-important Decision Day duel with LAFC at Children’s Mercy Park. As a result, Sporting KC is guaranteed to host at least one game in the Audi 2018 MLS Cup Playoffs, marking the first time the club has hosted a postseason match since winning MLS Cup on Dec.
