KC NWSL will be without defender Kristen Edmonds for the next two games. First, the one at the Chicago Red Stars on Wednesday, and then the home match versus Houston Dash on Monday at Legends Field.
Initially, Edmonds received a red card in the closing minutes of the game versus the Portland Thorns on Friday, April 9 for unsportsmanlike conduct. The NWSL Displinary Committe later reviewed the incident and determined Edmonds was in violation of Section 12.3.6, “Major Game Misconduct” of the League Operations Manual. An automatic fine and one-game suspension was also issued, and the committee sanctioned an additional one-game suspension to Edmonds.
