Sporting KC takes first half lead but surrenders late goals to fall 4-3 in Austin

Sporting Kansas City fell 4-3 to Austin FC Saturday night. Sporting KC, desperate for points to keep their slim playoff chances alive came out strong early in the match. Goals from Andreu Fontas, Willy Agada and a successful penalty by captain Johnny Russsel gave SKC the opportunity to go in the locker room with a 3-1 advantage over the home team.

The second half was almost all in Austin’s favor as they kept clawing back goals one-by-one until golden boot leader Sebastion Driussi put what may be the final nail in SKC’s hopes for postseason.

First Half

When Fontas scores a goal, it should lead to a good direction for the game.
