Closing the weekend with a Soccer Sunday doubleheader on FS1, Sporting Kansas City’s rock-solid defense featuring 2017 MLS Defender of the Year Ike Opara and Allstate Goalkeeper of the Year Tim Melia will welcome New York City FC and one of the league’s most prolific goal scorers David Villa to the always raucous Children’s Mercy Park on Sunday, March 4 (7:30 p.m. ET, FS1 / TSN). Melia, who held opponents to a league-low 26 goals in 34 regular games, and Opara, an influential factor in all 11 of the club’s shutouts last season, could have their hands full with Villa’s world-class finishing that includes 63 goals in the last three seasons, including at least 22 in each of his last two campaigns.
