FC Dallas vs Sporting KC: Lineup notes BigSoccer.com
We're back after a week off! FC Dallas is in action, as they get ready to take on rivals Sporting Kansas City.
Both teams have their lineups in, so let’s discuss them ahead of tonight’s match.
Quick thoughts
Well, well, well. We have a debut to discuss with tonight’s lineup. Alvaro Augusto will be making his FC Dallas debut in place of the suspended Lalas Abubakar (or really, Osaze Urhoghide). He’ll be lined up next to Sebastien Ibeagha in the middle of the defense with Marco Farfan and Shaq Moore on the wings. Behind them will still be Maarten Paes in goal.
The midfield sees a bit of a shift with Ramiro out and Kaick suspended. Sebastian Lletget returns to the mix next to Patrickson Delgado.
The attacking group may be as strong as we’ve seen in recent weeks with Pedrinho and Anderson Julio on the wings, with the Designated Player duo of Lucho Acosta and Petar Musa in the middle.
Who is on the bench?
After two months away on injury, Leo Chu returns to the bench tonight. Along with him will be Tsiki Ntsableng, Michael Collodi, Logan Farrington, Nolan Norris, Diego Garcia, Anthony Ramirez, and Bernard Kamungo.
Also, FC Dallas has brought up Josh Torquato on a short-term loan from North Texas SC for tonight. Torquato spent a lot of the preseason with FC Dallas. He'll be an option at left back should the club need him.
Who we could see off the bench
After the Philadelphia game two weeks ago, let's hope we see the bench used in its normal function tonight by Eric Quill. I think more than likely we'll see Bernard Kamungo, Logan Farrington, Tsiki Ntsabeleng and maybe a Homegrown player like Nolan Norris or Diego Garcia.
