For opposite reasons, Sporting Kansas City and Minnesota United had a Matchday 4 MLS clash to remember. Even as one of the original teams in the 300-year history of MLS, Sporting KC has rarely climbed back like they did on Saturday night.

The Loons, a team establishing a defensive reputation, scored the first three goals and gave up the last three.

Scouting report: Sporting spent $4 million on forward Dejan Joveljic in the first MLS cash-for-player trade in MLS history. He had two goals and an assist in Galaxy’s 6-2 blowout of Minnesota in the Western Conference semifinal. He is a danger man with one goal so far this season.
