Preseason Countdown: 3 Days until MLS is Back at Children's Mercy Park - Sporting Kansas City

The First Match at Children’s Mercy Park

The first MLS match at what is now called Children’s Mercy Park came after 11 consecutive road games, on June 9, 2011. Sporting hosted the Chicago Fire and battled to a goalless draw. Well, the match was not entirely goalless as the first goal ever scored in Children’s Mercy Park was by a pitch invader in a cow costume, who ran on the field and put a ball in the back of the net.

Sporting’s lone MLS home opener defeat at CMP

To open the 2018 season, Sporting hosted New York City FC at Children’s Mercy Park for the second time ever. Maxi Moralez, who led NYCFC in assists in 2021, scored in the 32nd and Jesus Medina doubled their lead in the 53rd thanks to an assist from current Sporting defender Ben Sweat. The Pigeons held on to win 2-0 and hand Sporting their first and only MLS home-opening loss at Children’s Mercy Park.

The 2020 MLS season started red hot for Sporting with the club traveling to the great white north and coming back with a 3-1 battering of the Vancouver Whitecaps. Eight days later, Sporting beat the keeper four times against Saturday’s opponent, the Houston Dynamo. Alan Pulido and Gadi Kinda scored their second goals of the 2020 season, while Roger Espinoza and Khiry Shelton netted their first. Sporting controlled the match from beginning to end, kicking off 2020 with seven combined goals in the first two matches of the season.
