Crew SC tie Sporting Kansas City in preseason opener

Kei Kamara grabs a brace in a 2-2 tie, but much of the focus was on getting everyone playing time.

Crew SC got pretty much exactly what they wanted out of their first game. They had their first taste of live game action against another team in 2016. Much of the roster got a chance to get 45 minutes of action to get some sharpness back. Perhaps most importantly, everyone stayed healthy. The result, a 2–2 tie, doesn’t matter until the games start counting on March 6th.

As promised, Gregg Berhalter when with a mixed squad against Sporting Kansas City with two different lineups getting 45 minutes.
