Two teams looking to rebound from Week 1 defeats meet at Children's Mercy Park on Sunday afternoon, as Sporting Kansas City host the Philadelphia Union.
Thanks to a stoppage-time goal by Adama Diomande, Sporting Kansas City suffered a 2-1 defeat last weekend at LAFC. The Union saw Marco Fabian score on his debut, but visiting Toronto FC celebrated a 3-1 win as sparked by a Michael Bradley brace.
Philadelphia won the lone meeting between these two teams a year ago, 2-0, courtesy of two late strikes from Jay Simpson.
