New edition of Behind the Shield presented by Audi provides all-access look at SKCvSTL rivalry rematch

New in 2024, Behind the Shield presented by Audi will be available after every match this season with the video series - produced by Sporting Kansas City's full-time digital storytellers - providing fans with an immersive viewing experience highlighted by exclusive interviews and all-access footage from Sporting Kansas City players, trainings and matchdays.

This week's BTS captures the sights and sounds from the club's rivalry rematch with St. Louis CITY SC last Saturday, highlighted by a special spotlight on the KC Cauldron's production of an impressive pre-match tifo.

"The last two weeks, we have painted 5,000 square feet of material to show St. Louis truly how much better we are than them," said KC Cauldron President Meghan Keller. "Our people in the stands, they love tifos. They absolutely love tifos."

Fans can also hear from Sporting KC defender Andreu Fontas and forward Daniel Salloi during the 12-minute episode, which can be seen on SportingKC.com, Sporting Kansas City's YouTube channel and MLS Season Pass on Apple TV.

After a three-match homestand, Sporting Kansas City is now set to play three straight away matches beginning this Saturday against Minnesota United FC. Kick off is set for 7:30 p.m. CT at Allianz Field in St. Paul and the Western Conference match-up will stream live on Apple TV for MLS Season Pass subscribers. Pub partners in the Sporting Pub Network will also show all of the action -- including an official watch party at Jefferson's in Lenexa, Kansas -- and radio coverage will air locally on Sports Radio 810 WHB and La Grande 1340 AM.
