Q&A: Sporting Legend Tony Meola on his storybook stint with the Wizards and love of Kansas City

With Major League Soccer’s 25th season temporarily on hold, there is no better time to cast a fond look back at the greatest moments and stories in Sporting Kansas City history. As a proud charter member of MLS and one of the league’s most successful teams, Sporting has been graced by numerous stars whose colossal impacts on the pitch still resonate to this day.

Among Sporting’s longtime heroes is former goalkeeper Tony Meola, who was appropriately part of the inaugural Sporting Legends class in 2013 alongside playmaking maestro Preki and championship-winning coach Bob Gansler.

SportingKC.com caught up with Meola this week for a Q&A that covered his storybook stint with the Wizards and his eternal fondness of Kansas City.
