Sporting Kansas City goes 4-for-4; Next up – the defending champs, LA Galaxy, on ESPN (Sat., 4 p.m. ET) Sporting Kansas City has won all four games to start their season, becoming just the sixth team in league history to do so. The LA Galaxy (1996, 1998, 2010), D.C. United (1997) and Real Salt Lake (2011) are the others to start 4-0. The Galaxy’s 2010 win streak ended in Kansas City with a 0-0 tie. Los Angeles can return the favor on Saturday at LIVESTRONG Sporting Park (ESPN/Deportes, 4 p.m. ET). If Kansas City produces another W in front of their boisterous home crowd, it will be the first time since 1998 (Los Angeles Galaxy started 9-0, first win came by shootout) that a club has earned five wins to start their season. In 1996, the Galaxy earned eight straight wins in regulation to start the season before earning a shootout win over New England and extending that streak to 12-0 to start the season.
