The newest chapter in the youngest rivalry in MLS was written at Children's Mercy Park on Saturday night, and boy did it deliver. The Boys in Red, accompanied by droves of traveling supporters, made the 250+ mile journey across state lines to take on Sporting Kansas at the furniture outlet. CITY looked to gain revenge after dropping both playoff...
The match on Saturday started off strong for St Louis CITY SC, closing the first half with a 2-1 lead and edging Sporting Kansas by most measurables throughout the game. Despite Kansas' season-long tendency to collapse after the 60', the same CITY defense that blanked Austin last week had two significant lapses; a Bürki own-goal off of forward...
Sunday games are not ideal for us amateur part time commentators. There is no next morning in the front room with the dog at my feet, a swiftly cooling cup of coffee teetering on a coaster that likely causes more spills than it saves, and two slices of cinnamon toast (don't judge), and several hours of ahead of me...

From possession percentage to expected goals (xG) to accurate passes, to sheer moxie* St Louis SC CITY dominated all possible measurables against bottom dweller FC Dallas Saturday night. Well, all measurables with the exception of balls in net and the most important of all, a win. Despite the 0-0 result Saturday night, it was an exciting game that...
After a five-match unbeaten run to begin the MLS season, CITY suffered their first loss of the 2024 campaign at the hands of Cristian Arango and Real Salt Lake by a score of 3-1.

Last year, St Louis City SC split games with Real Salt Lake winning away 4-0 at the end of March and RSL returning the favor over the summer. It's not even April and we've burned through our home and away with the salty team from Utah. This could potentially be a burgeoning rivalry but it's tough to build that when...
The family was on vacation and so we all "watched" the St Louis CITY SC vs DC United "match" in a "soccer bar" in East Scottsdale Arizona this last Saturday. By "watched" I mean we set up my iPad at the end of the booth because it turns out that this self professed "soccer bar" didn't have MLS Season...
A frustrating Saturday night for the 22,423 fans who packed CITYPARK for yet another home sellout as the Boys in Red earned only one point in a 2-2 draw against D.C. United. The draw is CITY's fourth of the young MLS season, only one behind their total from the entire 2023 campaign. After getting on the board first in the...
