NEW YORK (Thursday, June 4, 2015) – Sporting Kansas City forward Krisztian Nemeth was voted Etihad Airways MLS Player of the Month by fans on MLSsoccer.com for the month of May for the 2015 MLS season.

 

Nemeth led Sporting KC to an unbeaten 3-0-2 record in May, contributing three goals and two assists throughout the month. He brought his goal total on the season to six, good for fourth-best in MLS. Thanks to his exceptional run of form, Nemeth earned a call up from the Hungary Men’s National Team for its upcoming exhibition match versus Lithuania on June 5 and UEFA Euro 2016 qualifier against Finland on June 13. 


The forward’s finest performance came in Sporting KC’s 4-2 win over the New England Revolution on May 20th, when he registered a brace and tacked on an assist. Nemeth assisted Dom Dwyer’s Goal of the Week in the 29th minute, later adding a go-ahead tally and delivering the final dagger in the second half. The Hungarian international put Sporting KC ahead 2-1 in the 39th minute with an impeccably timed run and header off a set piece, and secured both his brace and the club’s win just seconds into the second half by slipping behind New England’s back line and slotting a shot past Bobby Shuttleworth.

 

In last Friday’s 4-0 win against FC Dallas, Nemeth opened the scoring in the 19th minute by knocking home a close-range header off an acrobatic assist from defender Kevin Ellis, following it up with his go-to celebration—the lightning bolt. 

 

Sporting Kansas City returns to MLS action this Saturday, when it takes on Seattle Sounders FC at 8:30 p.m. ET at Sporting Park (MLS LIVE).
