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 road trip to Real Salt Lake last Saturday, taking viewers along for the ride as the team traveled to Utah to take on the Western Conference leaders.
Fans can also hear from Sporting KC assistant coach Ash Wallace during the six-minute episode, which can be seen on SportingKC.com, Sporting Kansas City's YouTube channel and MLS Season Pass on Apple TV.
"Whenever we have gone to Salt Lake, I don't remember many games that have not gone the full distance, whistle to whistle, with the game being in the balance," said Wallace.
After wrapping up a three-game road trip with a dramatic 2-1 win at Union Omaha on Wednesday in the U.S. Open Cup, Sporting Kansas City now returns home to host the Houston Dynamo this Saturday. Kick off is set for 7:40 p.m. CT at Children's Mercy Park and tickets for the Western Conference clash are available online via SeatGeek, including the Sporting U Pass offering $15 Supporters' Stand ticket for college students.
