Kerry Zavagnin, interim head coach of Sporting Kansas City, expressed pride in his team's unwavering commitment amidst a streak of poor performances, including a recent 4-2 loss to FC Dallas. The team has only one win in their last seven matches and sits 13th in the Western Conference. Zavagnin acknowledged that while improvement in game control is necessary, the team's intensity and effort remain commendable. Defender Khiry Shelton echoed the sentiment, stressing the importance of focusing on controllable aspects and learning from past mistakes as they prepare for their upcoming match against Charlotte FC.
The mentality of the group, since day one, has been outstanding. It's the one piece that I'm not sure we can really improve upon because the intensity and the commitment that they give to each and every day, and each and every game, I can't ask for more.
When you have a group like that that will play to the final whistle regardless of what the conditions are, that's something that every coach should be proud of.
I talked to the guys on a regular basis about, let's control the things that we can control and understand the things that we can't control.
We did go straight to that, that there are some things out of our control and those things can be very frustrating but we have to let those things go and focus on what we did right and what we did wrong.
