Sporting Kansas City News Release


Saturday's regular season match between Sporting Kansas City and the Colorado Rapids, postponed prior to kickoff due to inclement weather, was rescheduled by Major League Soccer on Tuesday and will be played at 7:30 p.m. CT on Oct. 21 at Sporting Park.

All previously purchased tickets will be valid for the rescheduled match per club ticket policies. Sporting KC Season Ticket Members and group ticket holders may call 888-4KC-GOAL with inquiries. Individuals who purchased tickets for the match via Ticketmaster.com may contact Ticketmaster at 800-653-8000 with questions.

Saturday's match was the first in stadium history to be postponed until a later date due to weather and only the team's second MLS match all-time to be rescheduled as a result of unplayable conditions. In 1998, a match between the then Kansas City Wizards and D.C. United at Arrowhead Stadium was suspended in the 53rd minute and replayed in its entirety more than a month later.

Sporting Kansas City has played the Colorado Rapids more than any other opponent (66 times in all competition) dating back to the Major League Soccer's inaugural 1996 season. The Western Conference sides will meet three times during the 2015 regular season:

Saturday, June 27 at Sporting Park

Saturday, Aug. 29 at Dick's Sporting Goods Park

Wednesday, Oct. 21 at Sporting Park

Sporting KC will next host the New England Revolution at 7 p.m. CT on Wednesday at Sporting Park in a nationally televised match against the MLS Cup runners-up on ESPN2. A limited number of tickets are available for the game at Ticketmaster.com.
