Damiani takes Meyer down from behind.

The same Damiani who went into the SKC bench and got into a dust up with Mosquera off the ball. How he's avoided a yellow is beyond me. #SportingKC #SKCvPHI

Lasse Berg Johnsen clearly wins the ball and then the Philly player runs through his leg (not the guy who had the ball). And they give Lasse a yellow.

Koroleva is having an awful night. #SportingKC #SKCvPHI

She's over compensating now #sportingkc

Lasse goes into the book after a late lunge at the ball. #SKCvPHI #SportingKC

Andre called for a foul but Jacques stuck his leg out. Another Philly player got the ball first, but Jacques absolutely trips Andre, not the other way around. #SportingKC #SKCvPHI

Afrifa just suffered a foul exactly like the one Vassilev took in the first half and it's not even a foul. Let alone a yellow.

Koroleva is having herself a night as the ref... #SportingKC #SKCvPHI

Philly blasts it off the post from WAY outside the box. Quinn Sullivan with the shot and Cleveland may have got a touch. #SportingKC #SKCvPHI

Bartlett has in fact replaced Kwaku. #SportingKC #SKCvPHI

Jesus Bueno is the player who got the yellow on Philly. #SportingKC #SKCvPHI

We have finally scored our 1st set piece or corner goal of the season, but we're still -2.5 on my set piece charting for the year because we've conceded 4 goals from our own goal kicks. But hopefully the negatives are all behind us. This game is a stake for only positives from here on. #SportingKC

First time since 2022 #SportingKC have scored 3+ goals in 3 straight games.

Perhaps coming in for Kwaku since he picked up that yellow. #SportingKC #SKCvPHI

My timing was excellent. I did that this week. Wins is the first tiebreaker. #SportingKC #SKCvPHI

Halftime whistle blows and the teams get into it again.

Damiani came into the SKC bench players it looked like. One of the Philadelphia players got a yellow from the bench as he's heading to the tunnel after the fracas. #SportingKC #SKCvPHI

Bit of a fracas going into the locker rooms at halftime. Yellow given to a Union player. Kai Wagner went out of his way to have a go at the ref, and he wasn't the one who showed the yellow card. His leash has been mighty long. #SportingKC

That was the most enjoyable half of football since we beat City in the playoffs #SportingKC

Agyabeng goes into the book for the first yellow card of the game. Replay shows he hardly touched the player. Given all that's been yellow-cardable in this game, for that to be one is just poor. #SportingKC #SKCvPHI

Agyabeng is the first in the book. Yellow card.

He seemed to clearly get the ball, but maybe he got Vassilev on the follow through? #SportingKC #SKCvPHI

Sporting has an absolute star in the making. Covered a lot of good and a lot of bad. It's been quite a bit since #SportingKC had someone this special on the wings.

Off the ball Damiani and Mosquera get into it.

Mosquera was holding Damiani and he starts flinging his arms around.

The ref gives another talking to. Katja Koroleva is gonna have to start giving cards to calm these teams down. #SportingKC #SKCvPHI
