Depending what happens in some other games between now and Decision Day, #SportingKC could be playing to avoid the Wooden Spoon. It not mattering for Houston can only help.

Looking at it from the modern scoring vs shootout, the 99 team got 26 points (6-18-8 w/o shootouts) in 32 games, vs #SportingKC's 27 points in 33 games for this year's team. This is the worst KC team of all time.

Zavagnin on avoiding the Wooden Spoon: "As a club we are a proud club. We do want to finish in front of our fans in a strong way, regardless of the situation." #SportingKC

St. Louis City won again. #SportingKC will officially finish behind them all three seasons of their existence.

Full time. Minnesota 3, Kansas City 0. #SportingKC potentially go into Decision Day with the ability to 'win' the Wooden Spoon, depending on other results between now and then.

Thommy playing RWB now. Davis into the middle. Munoz playing the 10. Salloi is a second forward with Dejan. Still a back three. #SportingKC #MINvSKC

St. Aubin: "From my point of view, there isn't anyone that's not working for Sporting KC." We are watching two different games. She was going off on Davis, who was pissed because no one was moving for him to pass to. Everyone was standing still. #SportingKC #MINvSKC

Thommy came on after the 3rd goal. Salloi, Munoz and Leibold are coming on, but that'll be somewhere in the 70s minute-wise. Why wait so long? #SportingKC #MINvSKC

3-0 Minnesota. #SportingKC have them right where they want them. #MINvSKC

Voloder makes a great defensive play, then a silly turnover. Memo stands there and watches. No one really retreats. Pulskamp spills it the only place he can't. Woof. 2-0 MIN. #SportingKC #MINvSKC

I believe when MIN scored that means #SportingKC have allowed more goals this season than they have in any season ever. I'll let @mikedkuhn.bsky.social confirm.

Davis saves it off the line to keep SKC alive! They did come back from being down 3-0 to Minnesota earlier this year. #SportingKC #MINvSKC

Halftime. MIN 1 SKC 0 I'd like to see big changes. Stay in the back 3 is fine, but take Memo and Rado off. Bring on Shelton at RWB, Davis to the midfield. And bring on Santi to play the 10 (or let Memo do it if you prefer). Gotta get more offensive. #SportingKC #MINvSKC

Massive chance for Toye. Huge save by St. Clair! Should be tied... #SportingKC #MINvSKC

Clearly offside on the 2nd Minnesota goal. Their lead remains 1-0. #SportingKC #MINvSKC

With the goal they just allowed, #SportingKC have allowed 11 goals or more in each 15 minute segment of the first half to Minnesota's 11 in the ENTIRE first half all year. 1-15: 13 16-30: 11 31-45: 18 #MINvSKC

Gameplan out the window. Minnesota United score. 1-0. #SportingKC #MINvSKC

#MNUFC with just 11 1st half goals conceded to SKC's 41. #SportingKC have allowed 13 in the first 15 minute of games and 18 in the final 15 minutes of the first half. Eek! #MINvSKC

I think a back 3 for #SportingKC, but this lineup could be some very ugly soccer. Very pragmatic game, trying to get points to avoid finishing dead last. I imagine it's a lot of hit it long and hope in the 1st half. #MINvSKC

Oh man, I think they are finally rocking a back three. It's not my ideal lineup, but perhaps going to be very defensive against a team that wants to counterattack. #SportingKC

A reaction from our old NYCFC sister site about David Lee coming over to #SportingKC

Manu Garcia upgraded, but you gotta think it's not worth the risk. Fernandez and Thommy off the report. Reminder Shapi is suspended for his "red" card against LA. #SportingKC

A funny story behind David Lee's recruitment of Pascal Jansen. A visit to Amsterdam, a home-cooked meal & a deal w/ #NYCFC From our Pregame Show airing tomorrow on the NYCFC Radio Network nycfc.com/radio Lee is departing for a new gig at @sportingkc.com @newyorkcityfc.com #PHIvNYC #DaleNewYork

#SportingKC are pretty horrific when they have a lead or are tied. Yikes!

A new @fortheglorykc.bsky.social is out! Early podcast this week with the new President of Soccer Operations, David Lee, announced by #SportingKC We learn who Lee is, his history, what he'll bring to the team and a whole lot more. 🎧Listen now! 🎙️ kcsoccerjournal.com/10/02/2025/a...

This is of particular note for #SportingKC fans. Just two more games until SKC are 0-0-0 again and hope can return. www.mlssoccer.com/news/mls-ann...

Before the David Lee CSO hire, Doyle was expressing concerns about some #SportingKC candidates. He confirmed Lee isn't someone that had him concerned. BTW, up to 29th. Thank god for DC United 😅

Always good fun chatting with our friend @chadcsmith.bsky.social from @fortheglorykc.bsky.social , even if the #SportingKC topic was not all that fun this time round 😅 Be sure to check it out when it drops next week!

#NYCFC fans, I'd love to know your thoughts on David Lee moving to #SportingKC. Also, anyone have a 'reaction' podcast that's come out from NYCFC folks that I could listen to? I appreciate your recommendations and replies!

I was scrolling through Reddit (always the best) for NYCFC fan takes on David Lee. Apparently they really wanted him gone, though some folks were very grateful. They have the best record of any team in MLS since 2020. I guess one MLS Cup wasn't enough in that time? #SportingKC

Lee is signed through 2032. It's a seven-year deal. Just food for thought, #SportingKC signed Peter Vermes through 2028, so they are paying them both for that top soccer job for the next three years.

The Final Standings of the 22-game 2023 NWSL Regular Season. There was a 13-point gap between first and last. Through 22 games in the 2025 season, there is a 16-point gap between 1st and 2nd.

"This is probably better than what I would have guessed is a best case scenario for #SportingKC."

#SportingKC have their man in charge of soccer. Meet David Lee. The man given a seven-year contract to lead Sporting Kansas City into the future. #MLS kcsoccerjournal.com/09/30/2025/s...

Zorhan Bassong called up for Canada. #SportingKC

Stat from last night, #SportingKC tied the club record for most goals conceded in league play in a season at 67 with the 2019 season.

A new @fortheglorykc.bsky.social is out! This week: - A switched up #SportingKC lineup continues to stumble in LA - Wooden Spoon race update - #KCBaby just keep winning, even with the kids - and the Digital Crawl (y'all!) kcsoccerjournal.com/09/28/2025/s...

Zamir Loyo Reynaga makes his pro debut at 14 years old! He's the youngest every SKC II player, passing Ian James. He's the 6th youngest in MLS Next Pro history. #SportingKC

@fortheglorykc.bsky.social Thought y’all might like to see The Current getting down the road and spreading some soccer cheer in Wichita! Here at Stryker, and word is that they will be back with a youth clinic soon too! #kccurrent #stepyourgameupSporting #americanoutlaws #kcbaby

Kansas City Current’s 11th goal of the 2024 season was scored against them in their 6th match. It took 22 matches this year!

Vlatko said he isn't concerned about the goal KC gave up, because he know Lorena saves that most of the time. He's more worried about the throw-in that led to the goal and they'll work on that. #KCBaby #KCvCHI

Vlatko on Alex Pfeiffer and Mary Long playing against the KC starters in practice: "When you see success then, you fear no one." He was very proud of them both. Pfeiffer drew a PK and Long got her first NWSL assist. #KCBaby #KCvCHI

Vlatko: "I challenged them to maintain the standard. I wasn't worried about the result, or winning and losing." He said, they never talk about winning and losing, only ahead of the last game against Seattle for the #NWSL Shield. #KCBaby #KCvCHI

This is Lo LaBonta's 14th penalty kick goal. That ties Megan Rapinoe for the most all-time in #NWSL history. #KCBaby #KCvCHI

Alex Pfeiffer, who is 17, is having her way with Ava Cook. She draws the PK! #KCBaby #KCvCHI

How in the world does Temwa do it?!?! There was no space! 14th goal of the season, she extends her Golden Boot lead. #KCBaby #KCvCHI

Triple sub. Mary Long, Regan Steigleder and Alex Pfeiffer in. Bia, Robinson and Cooper off. The door is open for Chicago as very few "starters" remain on the field. #KCBaby #KCvCHI

The shutout streak ends. Turnover in the midfield and Chicago make Kansas City pay. #KCBaby #KCvCHI

Great finish by Bia. She needed that after having her last few would have been goals saved off the line. #KCBaby #KCvCHI

Katie Scott subbed off at half. She was on a yellow and Ludmila is a handful. Izzy Rodriguez replaces her and Ellie Wheeler flips to RB. #KCBaby #KCvCHI
