RSL and Sporting KC started out with nervousness but things calmed down after 10 minutes. Chris Schuler had a decent look off a corner but headed it a bit high. Later on, Yura had a decent look after a chaotic play in the box but the Sporting defenders got there just in time to clear. The crowd got animated when in the 39th minute Don Dwyer was chasing down a ball and ended up colliding with Nick Rimando who let Dwyer know he didn't like it. The last play of the first half saw Schuler with another chance to score but he couldn't connect with the ball the way he wanted and the ball went wide.
RSL tie again at home, 0-0
