Stoke City are denied a win against Sporting Kansas City by a last-minute freak goal at Livestrong Sporting Park.

A freak goal in stoppage time from Kyle Miller has denied Stoke City victory against Sporting Kansas City at Livestrong Sporting Park.

Soony Saad almost put the MLS side ahead in spectacular fashion on 28 minutes, however his 30-yard strike cannoned back off the crossbar.

Peter Crouch should have put the visitors ahead early in the second half, but the England international twice spurred good chances to score.

Teal Bunbury, who previously had an unsuccessful trial at the Britannia Stadium, was then inches away from connecting with a dangerous in-swinging free kick on 69 minutes.

Michael Tonge replaced Jonathan Walters with 13 minutes remaining and made an instant impact.

Within six minutes of his arrival, the former Sheffield United man won and converted a penalty kick to put his side on course for victory.

However, with literally seconds remaining, Asmir Begovic's clearance clattered Miller on the head and the ball looped back over the Bosnian and into the net.
