In Summary:
Revenge, for all of its cliche, felt pretty good on Saturday night for Kansas City. After a controversial red card and a tight finish left the Wizards a goal short of the playoffs during last season’s season finale in New York, many have waited for the day when RBNY would get a taste [...]
