KANSAS CITY, KAN. — Nashville Soccer Club earned its second consecutive road win on Saturday night in a 2-1 victory over Sporting Kansas City at Children’s Mercy Park. Defender Dave Romney registered his first goal of the season off a set piece in the 51st minute from a service from Randall Leal, with CJ Sapong securing the game-winner in the 68th minute.
