Week 34 MLS results resulted in a three-point tie at the top of the Eastern Conference. Sporting Kansas City lead Seattle and Colorado in the tiebreaker but that is after a 2-1 loss in Minnesota. Khiry Shelton scored in the 8th minute for Sporting. Minnesota equalized in the 20th minute through Franco Fragapane and Emanuel Reynoso converted a penalty in the 39th minute.
“The difference in the game was that they were fighting for their lives and wanted to win,” said Sporting Kansas City manager Peter Vermes. “Unfortunately, I think they wanted it more than we did, especially in the first half. We gave away two bad situations that they capitalized on, so they deserve credit. “
Colorado won 1-0 in Houston. Dominique Badji scored the only goal of the game in the 58th minute and William Yarbrough made six saves to concede. Seattle hosts the LA Galaxy on Monday.
“I thought we weren’t very good at all and to be honest,” said Colorado coach Robin Fraser. “I definitely have to take some of the blame for that because I tried a few different things today and tried to put us in a different shape. It was never cohesive enough, so I certainly have some responsibility for it, but I just thought we didn’t play particularly well overall. “
