What a tough loss. Minnesota lost a game they could have won, but those of us who watched it could be very proud of how the Loons performed.
Player of the Match
Mitch Hildebrandt was the clear player of the match. He kept the team in the game when they went down to 10 men and Sporting KC smelled blood in the water. A great game by him.
Defender of the Match
Venegas got a lot of love coming back from his broken jaw and performing well both in his overlapping runs and in his defensive acumen. It’ll be great to see Minnesota back to near full strength (no Campos) this fall.
Sub of the Match
Jamie Watson got the nod for Sub of the Match, but I have to disagree. He was directly responsible for the second goal. Granted, he was put into a position at left back that isn’t his usual spot, but still, he probably wasn’t the best sub for the game.
Was it a red card?
The completely impartial fans of Minnesota United FC said no, it should have received a yellow.
Next Match
