ICYMI: #RSL Asst GM Tony Beltran talking long & winding road to overnight success for Academy products Gozo / Hezarkhani / Glad / Moisa / Booth / Dillon and college picks Solans / Caliskan / et al as #DaleReal off to best start since 2011

Zooming out

2 straight weeks VAR thought #RSL deserved a penalty + opponent sent off- neither was given.

On the other hand, also in SD, VAR wanted a pen against Glad, ref stuck with no call.

Add in Sabbi’s retroactive red via DISCO week 1 (doesn't help RSL)-

You can see where frustration builds.

PRO’s “Inside Video Review” look at a potential DOGSO red + PK for #RSL

VAR recommended on-field review for DOGSO red.
Ref stayed with original decision.

PRO calls it “subjective.” Review starts at 8:45

Worth a watch 👇

3-1 defeat to RSL leaves Sporting KC feeling salty Sporting Kansas City traveled to Sandy, Utah looking to end their one game losing streak against Real Salt Lake. Rafa Wicky set his team up in a 3-4-3 formation with Ian James and Jansen Miller return...

#SportingKC fail to bounce back after the international break and perhaps show signs of regression.
