Following a month-long road trip that took the club to five different cities, Sporting Kansas City (4-6-7, 19 points) will return to Children’s Mercy Park on Wednesday for a highly anticipated showdown with MLS Supporters’ Shield leaders Los Angeles Football Club (11-2-4, 37 points) at 7:30 p.m. CT.


In conjunction with the LAFC match and the Fourth of July holiday, Sporting has launched a limited-time Americana ticket package and unveiled its new adidas x Sporting KC Men’s Americana Top. The $45 Americana ticket package is available at SeatGeek.com while supplies last, consisting of a South Stand general admission match ticket to #SKCvLAFC, an all-inclusive food and drink pregame tailgate, and postgame access to the Children’s Mercy Park pitch for the premier fireworks show in Kansas City. The Americana Top will be available Wednesday at the stadium in limited quantities and can also be purchased via matchday pre-orders at SportingStyle.com or at MLSstore.com.


General match tickets for Wednesday remain available at SeatGeek.com, with the first 5,000 fans through the stadium gates receiving a Sporting KC fanny pack courtesy of Mainstreet Credit Union. FOX Sports Kansas City Plus, FOX Sports Midwest Plus and FOX Sports GO will provide three hours of live coverage starting at 7 p.m. CT. Listeners can also catch the Western Conference clash on Sports Radio 810 WHB and ESPN Deportes KC 1480 AM, while the Sporting KC App will provide additional in-game updates and exclusive offers.
