KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI – Ben McKendry scored his second goal of the season on a penalty kick but it was too little, too late for Whitecaps FC 2 as they fell 3-1 to Swope Park Rangers at Children’s Mercy Victory Field on Friday evening.
Nansel Selbol, Lebo Moloto, and Kharlton Belmar scored in the first half for Swope Park, who improve to 4W-2L-0D and remain undefeated at home. WFC2 fall to 2W-3L-2D with the loss in a rematch of last year’s USL Cup Playoffs Western Conference Final.
WFC2 head coach Rich Fagan made two changes to last week’s lineup against Sacramento Republic FC, reinserting McKendry and Thomas Sanner into the starting XI that included four teenage WFC Residency products.
