Settled in Arizona for the second leg of Sporting Kansas City's 2020 preseason, presented by Children's Mercy, assistant coach Kerry Zavagnin joined Sports Sunday host Brad Porter last weekend for a compelling discussion on Sports Radio 810 WHB.
In addition to reflecting on his 20-year tenure with Sporting, as a player from 2000-2008 and an assistant since 2009, Zavagnin also provided an insightful preview of an MLS campaign that begins Feb. 29 with a visit to Vancouver Whitecaps FC.
Having seen his team train for two weeks in the desert sunshine, Zavagnin was prompted to make an interesting comparison between the 2020 Sporting Kansas City team and the 2000 Kansas City Wizards side that went on to win the MLS Cup and Supporters' Shield.
