The Kansas City Current’s spot in the NWSL Championship Game is an amazing accomplishment in the moment and over the past two seasons.
They had to win both playoff games on the road to reach the final on Saturday in Washington D.C. against the Portland Thorns. And it’s the second year of the team’s existence. The team has been know as the Current only this season. The franchise came together in such a hurry last year that it was known as KC NWSL.
On today’s SportsBeat KC, Coach Matt Potter and star midfielder Lo’eau LaBonta share their thoughts on the team and this season.
Also, Star columnist Vahe Gregorian and beat writer Daniel Sperry discuss what has made this organization such a success on and off the field.
Kickoff Saturday is 7 p.m., and the game will be televised by CBS (Ch. 5)
