Ghanaian player Latif Blessing scored for his club side Sporting Kansas City as they breezed past New York Red Bulls 2-1 in the US Open Cup final on Thursday morning.
In front of a huge home crowd of 21,523 (third-largest in the history of Children’s Mercy Park), Peter Vermes’ SKC were in control from the start.
Latif Blessing rose highest to meet Graham Zusi’s inch-perfect cross from the right to make it 1-0 for the home team in the 25th minute.
