    Bliss gets scapegoated - Shades of Blue
    Jul 1 2024
    It felt good to have fun at Children's Mercy Park again on Saturday night as Sporting KC turned in one of the best performances of the season with a 2-0 win over Austin FC. Johnny Russell was on fire and Stephen Afrifa scored again. How high is the ceiling for Afrifa? Brian Bliss was the sacrificial lamb and the new hire, on the surface, feels underwhelming at best. Is Mike Burns the sweeping change in philosophy fans have been hoping for? Did Tim Weah take the blame, or is Gregg Berhalter's job on the line vs Uruguay? KC Current break another record and have a massive game this weekend. S7:E28 Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

  • Claire Hutton interview - One Shots

    Claire Hutton interview - One Shots
    Jun 20 2024
    The Kansas City Current are on top of the table and are undefeated halfway through the season. There are many reasons the Current made a big turnaround from last season. A new coach, new players, and a new stadium are all reasons but one of the key reasons is Claire Hutton. She is an eighteen-year-old rookie who started the first twelve games for Kansas City and is near the top of the stats for tackles and other categories while adjusting to being a pro and seeking balance in her life. Thad Bell from the KC Soccer Journal sat down for a short chat with the remarkable young star to discuss books, food, and more. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
