OFFICIAL GAME DAY PROGRAM

VS JULY 27, 2019 German Heritage Night Presented by Essen Haus

Forward Madison FC returns to Breese Stevens Field from a week off in need of a win against last-place Orlando City B this Saturday at 7 p.m. The Flamingos are still five points off the playoff places, and with time running out on their inaugural USL League One season, moving up the standings is becoming a now-or-never proposition.

According to Head Coach Daryl Shore, the pressure is on and his team needs to respond accordingly.

“There’s 12 games left, the challenge to our group was we have to get points in all 12 games, and most of those games have to be wins,” Shore said. “The playoffs start on Satur- day for us.”

Although Forward Madison looked as if it had hit a good run of form after beating League One’s top two teams in late June and early July, the ‘Mingos have stagnated since, giving up a last-minute goal to lose to Lansing and conceding late again in a 1-1 draw with Chat- tanooga on July 13. FMFC has split the season series with Orlando so far, emerging victori- ous from its first game in the Sunshine State (the club’s first-ever win) and falling by a goal in the rematch.

This time around, the Flamingos will have the added benefit of extra rest; their previous game came last Tuesday in a 2-1 exhibition win over Leones Negros UdeG, while Orlando played this Wednesday and lost 4-1 to South Georgia Tormenta FC.

Forward Madison’s team is nearly at full strength, although midfielder Brandon Eaton re- mains out with a left knee sprain. PREVIEW CONT. JULY 27

Orlando City B, meanwhile, has made wholesale changes. The Young Lions fired manager Fernando Jose De Argila Irurita on Thursday, replacing him with interim coach Roberto Sibaja, who was previously with Orlando City U-19s. Orlando will also be missing midfielder Serginho, who leads the team in both assists (4) and shots (28), due to a suspension for yellow card accumulation.

Even with new faces and key absences, though, Shore warned it would be perilous to un- derestimate Orlando City B.

“If they get ahead, they’re a hard team to break down,” he said. “They’re young, so they get after it. This is a game where we feel we’ve got to come out from the get-go and we’ve got to put ourselves in a position where we’re on the front foot.”

Forward Madison is offering several promotions for Saturday’s game, including a Mystery Fanny Pack, a German Beer Boot pack and a Wiener Dog Race pack. Following its game against Orlando City B, FMFC will go on the road to face Toronto FC II next Wednesday before returning home for a game against FC Tucson on Saturday, Aug. 3.

DARYL SHORE - Head Coach and Technical Director

Forward Madison FC announced that Daryl Shore would be the team’s first head coach and technical director.

Shore, 48, has spent 25 years coaching throughout his career. He served as an assistant coach in Major League Soc- cer for the Chicago Fire and Real Salt Lake, as well as head coach positions in three lower division teams.

Shore coached teams have qualified for the playoffs in 17 of his 23 professional seasons, including nine of his ten seasons in Chicago. In Chicago, Shore and Wilt worked together with Wilt serving as the MLS team’s President and General Manager. With the Fire, Shore earned three US Open Cup Championships, the 2003 MLS Supporters Shield and twice was an MLS Cup finalist.

After leaving RSL, Shore served this past season as an assistant coach of the 2018 NPSL Champion Miami FC 2. He has a long history and deep passion for the game. Attending college at Birmingham-Southern, Shore started on the men’s soccer team from 1989-1993 as the goalkeeper. As a two-time NAIA All-American Shore was inducted into the Birmingham-Southern Athletic Hall of Fame. Following his collegiate career, Shore became an assistant at his alma mater for two years before signing on to play professionally with the Birmingham Grasshoppers. In 1994, he earned recognition for his play by being awarded Goalkeeper of the Year in the USISL.

Following his stint with the Grasshoppers, Shore signed with the New Orleans Riverboat Gamblers where he served as an assistant coach as well as goalkeeper in 1995. By 1998, he became head coach of New Orleans. Shore led both New Orleans and expansion Lehigh Valley Steam to USL playoff runs. He joined Bob Bradley’s staff in Chicago as its goalkeeper coach in 2000. Just one year later Shore was promoted to assistant coach. By 2002, Shore had made a name for himself within the Fire organization and Wilt named him Director of Youth Development and Assistant Coaching Director of the Chicago Fire Juniors in addition to his first team coaching duties.
