In their first game of the 2017 season, DC United and Sporting Kansas City played to the second scoreless draw of the day. Here are three important take aways from the game:
1. Gerso Fernandes is bringing a new spark to Sporting Kansas City’s Offense.
Brought in over the winter as a Designated Player, Fernandes was a proven winger from Belenenses, a team in the top league of Portugal. In his debut with Sporting Kansas City, he showed his value as he terrorized his side of the field, frustrating newly transitioned right-back Nick DeLeon.
