Union, Sporting KC play to scoreless draw

CHESTER, Pa. (AP) — Philadelphia Union goalkeeper Andre Blake and Sporting Kansas City’s Tim Melia both finished four saves in a scoreless draw on Saturday night.

Melia held Philadelphia’s Dániel Gazdag in check. Gazdag entered play with a league-best 28 goal contributions since the beginning of July with 13 of his 17 goals coming at home.

Sporting KC (0-3-3) hasn’t beaten the Union (2-3-1) on the road since 2013.

The Union had a 17-13 advantage in shots with both teams taking four shots on goal.

Philadelphia hits the road to play FC Cincinnati on Saturday. Sporting KC returns home to host the Colorado Rapids on Saturday.
