The Columbus Crew travel to face Sporting Kansas City on Saturday. With both sides entering the contest on three-match losing streaks, both hoped the wind would blow away some of their recent frustrations with a turn of form. While the wind had its hand in the match, neither side overcame the conditions or the opponent in a 0-0 draw.
Saturday’s match started with a potentially scary moment. In the third minute, Crew midfielder James Igbekeme and center back Nicolas Isimat-Mirin both went for a ball in the air. The result was their heads colliding.
