Sporting KC U-15s rally to win lightning-delayed 5-3 thriller over FC Dallas

In a wild game punctuated by eight goals and three lightning delays, the Sporting Kansas City Academy U-15s pushed their winning streak to five games with a thrilling 5-3 comeback victory over perennial powerhouse FC Dallas on Saturday morning in Frisco, Texas.

The Sporting KC U-15s (11-2-2, 35 points) kept hold of second place in the Central Conference’s Frontier Division with the gutsy result, but not before overcoming the odds as inclement weather and an early deficit worked against them.

FC Dallas took a 26th-minute lead in Toyota Soccer Center, which was immediately followed by the first lightning delay of the match.
