Stefan Cleveland blocks a PK in stoppage time to preserve Sporting KC's 1-1
draw with FC Dallas
KANSAS CITY, Kan. (AP) --- Jansen Miller scored a tying goal just before
halftime, Stefan Cleveland blocked a penalty kick in second-half stoppage time,
and Sporting Kansas City played FC Dallas to a 1-1 draw on Saturday.
Cleveland dove to his right to get a left hand on a penalty kick by Petar Musa,
who was 5 for 5 from the spot this season.
Kansas City (6-22-5) had its winless run extended to seven games. SKC joined
this year's Toronto FC side as the only teams in MLS history to finish a season
without a clean sheet at home.
Dallas (15-8-10) entered in second place in the Western Conference -- four
points back of Vancouver. With the result, the Whitecaps clinched the No. 1
seed and a spot in the Concacaf Champions Cup.
Miller headed in Owen Wolff's free kick in first-half stoppage time.
Dallas defender Herman Johansson scored his first MLS goal in the 19th minute.
Ran Binyamin ran past the defense for a through ball and found an unmarked
Johansson for a one-touch finish. It was Binyamin's first assist since May.
Sporting finished the season with only three home wins this year --- an
all-time low for the team.
Up next
Dallas: Returns home to play Colorado next Saturday.
Kansas City: Plays at San Diego next Saturday.
