Tanner Tolbert and Peter Vermes ensure love won't be lost when Sporting Kansas City visits the Portland Timbers for a Major League Soccer game.

Vermes, Sporting KC's head coach, enlisted the help of "The Bachelorette" star Tanner Tolbert in creating a soccer-themed parody video of the popular show. Vermes handed out roses to Benny Feilhaber, Dom Dweyer and a four other players who should expect to play against the Timbers on Wednesday in the "Rose City."

There were no wedding rings or tears shed in this mini-episode, but it did include some killer one-liners.

MLS, you're doing pop culture right.
