Entering the tournament with the requisite buzz that comes from two commanding wins to start the regular season more than four months ago, Sporting Kansas City's three group stage games at the MLS is Back Tournament didn't do too much to dampen those good vibes with two wins.
Sporting won two of their three Group D games, a group that was among the most difficult and balanced at the tournament. Pending Minnesota United's result against the Colorado Rapids, Sporting will finish either first or second. Either way, six points and a few good performances is a good showing.
