The Western Conference match-up, originally scheduled for 7:30 p.m. CT at Q2 Stadium, has been moved one hour later and is now scheduled for 8:30 p.m. CT due to forecasted high temperatures in Austin, Texas.
Saturday’s match will be free to watch on MLS Season Pass on Apple TV in English and Spanish. In addition, local radio coverage will air in Kansas City on Sports Radio 810 WHB and La Grande 1340 AM with streams available in the Sporting KC app. All of the action will also be shown by pub partners in the Sporting Pub Network, including an enhanced watch party at The Brooksider Sportsbar and Grill (6330 Brookside Plaza).
