MNUFC looks to right the ship against struggling D.C.Minnesota United welcomes D.C. United for a Saturday night matchup at TCF Bank Stadium. Both clubs have been fighting to climb out of their respective conference’s cellar and rejoin the fight for the playoffs, but have struggled in recent matches. The Black-and-Red have not won in their past five matches and have been missing starting goalkeeper Bill Hamid, who has been with the U.S. national team in the Gold Cup. With a mostly full complement of players for the first time in weeks, Minnesota will be looking for a much-needed three points against D.C. and an end to its scoring drought. With a full week to prepare, the mix of new and returning players for Minnesota will be itching to put together a complete match on Saturday.

Loons drop result to Red Bulls in front of 20,022 fansFans showed up in droves to support Minnesota United in its afternoon tilt with New York Red Bulls at TCF Bank Stadium. Unfortunately, the home side came out on the wrong end of the scoring, as the Loons fell 3-0. Goals from top scorers Daniel Royer and Bradley Wright-Phillips were capped off with a strike from Alex Muyl in the final minute. Minnesota was left wanting after missing a few golden chances throughout the match. A diving header from Miguel Ibarra in the first half and an open shot from Kevin Molino in the second period could have changed the game for MNUFC, but the Loons were unable to get on the scoresheet for a third consecutive match.

2015 MINNESOTA UNITED FC GOAL MAPM I N N E S O TA U N I T E D N E W S A N D N O T E S

MNUFC announces Allianz as stadium naming rights partnerMinnesota United FC and Allianz Life Insurance Company of North America (Allianz), a leading provider of retirement and protection solutions, announced a multi-year naming rights sponsorship agreement for the team’s new soccer stadium in St. Paul, Minn., which will be known as Allianz Field. The new stadium, which is being privately paid for by a partnership composed of Minnesota-based families and business leaders, is the first stadium in Minnesota without a direct public subsidy.

Scheduled to complete construction in time for the start of the 2019 Major League Soccer season, Allianz Field joins seven other Allianz-sponsored stadiums located in some of the most dynamic cities around the world. As the newest landmark in the greater Minneapolis/St. Paul area, Allianz Field will be among the most state-of-the-art soccer stadiums in North America, and a place where members of the Twin Cities community can gather for a variety of events, ranging from MLS and global exhibition matches to youth soccer and community celebrations.

Allianz Field will feature 19,400 seats at opening with the ability to expand to nearly 25,000 in capacity in the future. The stadium will have a translucent PTFE laminate mesh skin and features LED lighting technology similar to Allianz Arena in Munich, which allows the stadium to change colors in response to different events and activities. It will feature modern amenities and advanced technology, and is specifically designed to positively address sustainability while minimizing environmental impact and energy usage. Allianz Field is designed by Kansas City-based Populous, a world leader in stadium architecture, with construction by Minneapolis-based Mortenson Construction, one of the leading construction firms in the United States. The club’s ownership group will finance the estimated $200 million stadium, which will be given to the city of St. Paul once construction is complete.

The stadium will feature a FIFA-compliant, natural grass, heated playing surface measuring 120 yards (110m) long by 75 yards (69m) wide and a standing supporters section of 2,800 with a sharp rake that creates the most imposing wall of support in MLS.

The stadium is a fitting complement to the great venues throughout the world that carry the Allianz name — iconic stadiums in Munich, Germany; Turin, Italy; Nice, France; London, England; Vienna, Austria; Sao Paulo, Brazil; and Sydney, Australia. Allianz also partners with a diverse array of sports teams, including two of the most successful clubs in global soccer — FC Bayern München (since 2000) and FC Barcelona (since 2010). These partnerships are focused on community and business relevance as Allianz strives to forge relationships with partners who share common values and commitments.

MNUFC declines loan option on goalkeeper John Alvbage Minnesota United announced it has declined the loan option on goalkeeper John Alvbage. Alvbage joined MNUFC on loan from IFK Goteborg on Jan. 29, 2017. He started the club’s first two matches in Major League Soccer, at the Portland Timbers and against Atlanta United FC, and made his third appearance as a second-half substitute in the 2-2 draw at Houston Dynamo on April 15.

The goalkeeper’s loan expired on July 23, 2017.

Itasca Society is now fullMinnesota United announced that it has now sold out of memberships in its Itasca Society, the exclusive club for season ticket holders joining in the team’s inaugural MLS season. Named for the lake and state park at the headwaters of the Mississippi and limited to 11,842 members — one for each lake in Minnesota — the Itasca Society is now full, with membership granting permanent recognition in and priority seating choice at the new Allianz Field in Saint Paul.

Renewals for season tickets for 2018 are currently open and season ticket holders will need to renew to guarantee their seats and recognition in the new stadium. The average attendance for matches at TCF Bank Stadium this season has already surpassed the total capacity of the new stadium, which will open at 19,400.

Deposits for new 2018 season tickets are now live and total season tickets for next season will be capped at 14,000 — only about 2,000 more spots than are currently occupied by Itasca Society members. After those 14,000 spots are filled, a waiting list will start. Being a part of that 14,000 is the only guarantee fans will have of getting seats in the new stadium for 2019.

Calvo and Taylor return from Gold Cup dutyFrancisco Calvo and Jermaine Taylor returned to MNUFC after representing Costa Rica and Jamaica, respectively, in the CONCACAF Gold Cup this month. Calvo played every minute for Los Ticos, scoring the tying goal against Canada in the group stage. His squad reached the semifinals before being eliminated by the U.S. Taylor also played every minute of the tournament, helping the Reggae Boyz repeat a historic run to the final, knocking off Mexico in the semifinals. Jamaica would go on to lose 2-1 to the U.S., who claimed the Gold Cup title.

Adrian Heath discusses what he expects from D.C. “Whatever team that Ben Olsen has, they’re not going to come here and lie down. They’re going to come in and be competitive. It’s strange, because they had the disappointment of the defeat at home. I watched them against Seattle and they were the better team for long periods of the game. And you know, that was a bit of a kick in the teeth for them to lose the game. So they’re a bit like us, probably playing better than their results. So I’ll have a look at this moment in time, but it’s a big game for us and one that we’re going to have to be prepared for because they’re going to certainly be pre-pared.“

Sam Nicholson on making his MLS debut“It was good. I enjoyed it, being on the pitch. I think in terms of fitness, like for myself because I have not played in over two months, it’s going to be a process where I may not be at my best for another few weeks. So it’s just stuff that I’m going to need to do extra with [Heath], Jarryd [Phillips] to try and get myself to that level of fitness. But apart from that, I loved it. I loved playing in MLS. It was a great experience and hopefully I’ll have many more.”

Minnesota United FC plays in North America’s top professional soccer league, Major League Soccer (MLS). The league features 22 teams from across the United States and Canada.

After a successful bid to host the World Cup in 1994, the United States Soccer Federation (USSF) founded MLS to bring a top-level soccer league back to the country for the first time since 1984, when the original NASL folded. The league was set to begin play in 1996 with 10 teams: Colorado Rapids, Columbus Crew (SC), D.C. United, Dallas Burn (FC Dallas), Kansas City Wiz (Sporting Kansas City), Los Angeles Galaxy, New England Revolution, NY/NJ MetroStars (New York Red Bulls), San Jose Clash (Earthquakes) and Tampa Bay Mutiny.

The league’s first match was played on April 6, 1996 as the San Jose Clash played D.C. United if front of 31,000 fans at Spartan Stadium. The league drew large crowds in its opening season, pulling star power from around North America and building on the excitement of the 1994 FIFA World Cup.

As MLS has continued to grow, clubs have begun moving out of shared American football venues and into soccer-specific stadium, led by the Columbus Crew (SC), who moved into the soccer-specific MAPFRE Stadium in 1999. Currently, 14 teams play in soccer-specific venues.

The league is split into the Eastern and Western Conferences. Each team plays 34 matches during the season. Teams play all conference opponents twice, once at home and once on the road, and each team in the other conference once, with an even balance of home and away matches. The remainder of the schedule is filled with matches against conference opponents. The top six teams in each conference at the end of the year qualify for the MLS Cup Playoffs.

The postseason begins with the third through sixth seeds in each conference playing in a knockout round. The winners advance to the conference semifinals to play the first and second seeds in the conference. In this round, the format switches to a two-match aggregate series, with the team scoring the most goals over the series moving on. The same format is used for the conference finals. The winner of the conference final moves on to face the other conference champion in the MLS Cup Final. The final is a single match, hosted by the team with the best record in the regular season, with the winner being declared MLS Cup Champion.

Añor signed with Minnesota ahead of its inaugural MLS season after joining the club on loan in 2016. The Venezuela-born midfielder arrived to the Loons from Sporting Kansas City and has played five total seasons in MLS (with Columbus Crew, Sporting KC and now MNUFC). He has unfortunately seen a number of injuries since a promising start to his original loan spell, sidelining him for much of the past few seasons.

Allen arrived on loan from New York Red Bulls on July 15. Before signing a Homegrown Player contract with New York in Dec. 2015, he was a three-time All-American, three-time All-Big East first-team member and MAC Hermann Trophy nominee at Georgetown, where he holds the record for highest-scoring player in school history (50 goals). Most recently, Allen led Red Bulls II to an Eastern Conference title in 2016, scoring 21 goals in 32 matches for the team.

At just 25 years old, Calvo has the potential to be a familiar name in Minnesota for years to come. Whether playing at center back or left back, the MNUFC captain does well to stretch the pitch and create imbalances in the attack. He’s a standout for club and country in defense and on set pieces, scoring for the Loons in a 2-2 comeback draw with Vancouver Whitecaps FC on June 24 and for Costa Rica in a 1-1 result against Canada at the Gold Cup on July 11.

# 8 M A R C B U R C H | D E F E N D E RHeight: 6’1” Weight: 180 Birthdate: 5/7/1984 (33) Hometown: Cincinnati, OhioPrevious Club: Colorado Rapids Acquired: Trade 3/31/2017

Burch is a 12-year MLS veteran with over 200 regular-season appearances. In 2016, he set career highs with Colorado Rapids in games started (27) and minutes played (2,443). He was named to the MLS Team of the Week in Week 3 of the 2017 season after tallying an assist in Colorado’s 2-2 draw with MNUFC. He is currently recovering from successful bi-lateral sports hernia surgery, which took place on June 20. The defender’s timetable for return is 8-12 weeks.

New Zealand international Boxall joined MNUFC on July 12 after representing his country at the FIFA Confederations Cup in Russia. He brings added MLS experience to Minnesota, having been selected first overall in the 2011 MLS Supplemental Draft by Vancouver Whitecaps FC ahead of their inaugural MLS campaign. Boxall then played for Wellington Phoenix in the A-League before joining SuperSport United in South Africa. He made his MNUFC debut in the 3-0 loss to NYRB on July 22.

# 1 9 S A M C R O N I N | M I D F I E L D E RHeight: 5’10” Weight: 165 Birthdate: 12/12/1986 (30) Hometown: Atlanta, GeorgiaPrevious Club: Colorado Rapids Acquired: Trade 3/31/2017

Cronin brings eight years of MLS experience to MNUFC from his holding-midfield role. He was selected second overall by Toronto FC in the 2009 MLS SuperDraft, won the Supporters’ Shield with San Jose Earthquakes in 2012 and made his first MLS All-Star appearance as a member of Colorado Rapids in 2015. His addition to Adrian Heath’s starting XI has helped to solidify the defense; he has featured as a starter in 14 of 14 league matches with the club this season.

At 6’2”, 24-year-old Greenspan is a towering, young presence in the Loons’ back line. Selected 26th overall in the 2015 MLS SuperDraft by Colorado Rapids, he arrived to MNUFC via a trade with his former club. The center back was loaned out to the USL’s Pittsburgh Riverhounds from April 10 until the end of May, where he played every minute of eight matches, making the Team of the Week twice and leading his side to four clean sheets. Greenspan made his MLS debut in a 1-0 loss to Crew SC.

# 1 3 T H O M A S D E V I L L A R D I | M I D F I E L D E RHeight: 6’1” Weight: 175 Birthdate: 3/27/1994 (23) Hometown: Vincennes, FrancePrevious Club: University of Delaware Acquired: SuperDraft (#42 Pick) 1/13/2017

De Villardi was selected No. 42 overall by MNUFC in the 2017 MLS SuperDraft. The France native had four goals and 16 assists in his college career, split evenly between Duquesne University and the University of Delaware. He was named to the All-CAA First Team during his junior year, with nine assists and two goals. De Villardi suffered a season-ending Achilles injury in March 2017, but is recovering excellently since successful surgery on March 29.

# 2 J U S T I N D A V I S | D E F E N D E RHeight: 6’0” Weight: 175 Birthdate: 5/6/1988 (29) Hometown: Novi, MichiganPrevious Club: Minnesota United FC Acquired: Signed 12/1/2016

Davis has spent his entire professional career with the Loons since joining in 2011. He was one of the club’s first two signings in MLS alongside his long-time defensive partner Kevin Venegas, both of whom shone in NASL competition. The left back helped Minnesota to an NASL Soccer Bowl Championship in 2011 and has numerous NASL Best XI selections to his name. Recently, he played a full 90 in a 1-0 loss to Columbus Crew SC on July 4 and a 0-0 draw with Houston Dynamo on July 19.

# 5 V A D I M D E M I D O V | D E F E N D E RHeight: 6’1” Weight: 176 Birthdate: 10/10/1986 (30) Hometown: Riga, LatviaPrevious Club: SK Brann Acquired: Signed 1/10/2017

Norway international Demidov has had a successful career playing in Europe’s top leagues and on the international stage. The 30-year-old is a strong option at central defense and isn’t afraid to throw his weight around to disrupt opponents. He’s also an aerial threat off set pieces, using his height to soar above defenders. Demidov has seen the field 16 times for Norway, including minutes in European Championship qualifying.

# 9 A B U D A N L A D I | F O R W A R DHeight: 5’10” Weight: 170 Birthdate: 10/18/1995 (21) Hometown: Takoradi, GhanaPrevious Club: UCLA Acquired: SuperDraft (#1 Pick) 1/13/2017

Danladi was selected No. 1 overall by MNUFC in the 2017 MLS SuperDraft following a highly successful career at UCLA. While there, the forward racked up a handful of Freshman of the Year awards and Pac-12 All-Conference teams, and was in the running for the MAC Hermann Trophy. He’s been bright in limited appearances for the Loons so far, most notably scoring the decisive winner in a 3-2 victory over Portland Timbers on June 21.

# 1 0 M I G U E L I B A R R A | M I D F I E L D E RHeight: 5’4” Weight: 145 Birthdate: 3/15/1990 (27) Hometown: Lancaster, CaliforniaPrevious Club: Club Leon Acquired: Transfer 1/7/2017

Ibarra returned to Minnesota after a year and a half with Club Leon in Liga MX. During his earlier tenure with MNUFC (2012-2015), he earned a pair of NASL Best XI appearances, a Golden Ball Award (MVP) and was the first U.S. lower-division player to be called up to the U.S. national team since 2005. The midfielder has featured in 19 MLS games for the Loons, starting 15 times and scoring the winner against Colorado Rapids on April 23. He is quick and creative down the wing.

Kallman has spent his entire professional career with Minnesota United after first joining the club in 2013. He was an unused substitute in the Loons’ first two MLS games, but has since featuring in the starting lineup for 17 of 17 matches, taking on a tremendous amount of leadership and earning high praise from Heath, who described the center back’s performances this season as “excellent” on July 18, adding that “there’s not many [players]” he would swap out for Kallman in MLS.

# 1 7 C O L L I N M A R T I N | M I D F I E L D E RHeight: 5’11” Weight: 150 Birthdate: 11/9/1994 (22) Hometown: Chevy Chase, MarylandPrevious Club: D.C United Acquired: Trade 1/3/2017

A young, creative midfielder, Martin has featured off the bench and in U.S. Open Cup and friendly action for the Loons since joining via a trade with D.C. United in January. He has represented the United States at U14, U15 and U17 levels and was the only high-school junior to train with the U20 squad in January 2012. Martin made his first MLS start with Minnesota in the 3-0 loss to New York Red Bulls on July 22.

# 1 6 B A S H K I M K A D R I I | M I D F I E L D E RHeight: 5’10” Weight: 175 Birthdate: 7/9/1991 (26) Hometown: Copenhagen, DenmarkPrevious Club: FC Copenhagen Acquired: Signed 2/8/2017

A Denmark international of Albanian descent, Kadrii came up in the youth system of B.93 in Copenhagen, for whom he made his professional debut in 2008. He grew into a formidable scorer for the club, netting 18 goals in 30 appearances. Kadrii has made 11 league appearances with MNUFC, starting five times, and has yet to score an MLS goal. He did, however, score a lovely left-footed volley in the 1-1 friendly draw with Atlas FC on July 15 – his first goal for the club.

# 1 5 I S M A I L A J O M E | M I D F I E L D E RHeight: 6’1” Weight: 160 Birthdate: 11/4/1994 (22) Hometown: Brooklyn Park, MinnesotaPrevious Club: Minnesota United FC Acquired: Signed 2/24/2017

Minnesota native Jome first joined the Loons in 2016, making nine appearances and scoring on his professional debut. A former Minnesota Mr. Soccer, he’s primarily played as a winger and, most recently, wing back for MNUFC, using his rapid acceleration and footwork to create spaces down the flanks. After beginning the season as an unused substitute, Jome made three substitute appearances before getting his first MLS start in the 1-0 win over Orlando City SC on May 27.

# 7 I B S O N | M I D F I E L D E RHeight: 5’10” Weight: 168 Birthdate: 11/7/1983 (33) Hometown: Sao Goncalo, BrazilPrevious Club: Minnesota United FC Acquired: Signed 1/23/2017

Ibson first signed with the Loons in 2015. He’s proven a quietly exceptional possession player with excellent control in tight spaces. Not only this, his ability to beat defenders and technical footwork help to open up space for teammates and create chances further down the pitch. The Brazilian has started 16 of 18 games for MNUFC so far this season and is among the players with the most average touches per 90 minutes in MLS.

# 2 4 P AT R I C K M C L A I N | G O A L K E E P E RHeight: 6’3” Weight: 205 Birthdate: 8/22/1988 (28) Hometown: Eau Claire, WisconsinPrevious Club: Orlando City SC Acquired: Trade 1/26/2017

McLain has been a bit of a journeyman in his career, getting the majority of his playing time in USL. The Eau Claire native played his college soccer for Cal Poly, where he earned All-Big West honors and set a school record with his 0.835 save percentage. He has yet to feature in MLS play for Minnesota, but saw minutes in the U.S. Open Cup defeat to Sporting Kansas City on June 14 and kept Atlas FC scoreless after being subbed on for the second half of the 1-1 friendly draw.

# 2 0 R A S M U S S C H U L L E R | M I D F I E L D E RHeight: 5’10” Weight: 148 Birthdate: 6/18/1991 (26) Hometown: Espoo, FinlandPrevious Club: BK Hacken Acquired: Signed 1/24/2017

Schuller is an active member of the Finland national team and joined the Loons after playing in the top leagues of his home country and Sweden. He has a deft touch from defensive midfield and is not afraid to make forays forward, but has been limited to seven league appearances (four starts) due to injuries over the first half of the 2017 campaign.

# 3 3 B O B B Y S H U T T L E W O R T H | G O A L K E E P E RHeight: 6’2” Weight: 205 Birthdate: 5/13/1987 (30) Hometown: Tonawanda, New YorkPrevious Club: New England Revolution Acquired: Trade 2/15/2017

Shuttleworth spent eight seasons with the New England Revolution from 2009-2016, totaling 127 appearances, 124 starts, 34 shutouts, 344 saves and a 46-53-28 regular-season record. He anchored the squad during its run to the 2014 MLS Cup, tying the club record with 16 wins. Since joining Minnesota on February 15, Shuttleworth has made the MLS Team of the Week three times (Week 8, 10 and 16). He is also No. 3 in the league for saves, with a tally of 70.

# 2 1 C H R I S T I A N R A M I R E Z | F O R W A R DHeight: 6’2” Weight: 187 Birthdate: 4/4/1991 (26) Hometown: Garden Grove, CaliforniaPrevious Club: Minnesota United FC Acquired: Signed 1/5/2017

Ramirez was one of the Loons most valuable players during his NASL career and his debut MLS campaign has been no different. The forward has 10 goals in 21 MLS appearances, scoring the winner against Orlando City SC on May 27 and a second-half brace in the 4-2 victory over Real Salt Lake on April 1 among other impressive performances. “Superman,” as he is fondly nicknamed, has been one of the revelations of the MLS season so far and carries Minnesota’s goalscoring load.

# 1 8 K E V I N M O L I N O | M I D F I E L D E RHeight: 5’8” Weight: 155 Birthdate: 6/17/1990 (27) Hometown: Carenage, Trinidad and TobagoPrevious Club: Orlando City SC Acquired: Trade 1/26/2017

Molino was Orlando City SC’s first MLS signing and rejoined forces with former coach Heath when he moved to MNUFC in a major inter-league trade on Jan. 26. He’s a strong, technical player through the midfield and can dribble past defenders to create opportunities in front of goal. Molino has started 19 of 19 league matches for Minnesota, with a tally of five goals and five assists. Most notably, the Trinidad and Tobago international scored a brace in a 3-2 loss to Toronto FC on May 13.

# 2 8 S A M N I C H O L S O N | M I D F I E L D E RHeight: 5’9” Weight: 157 Birthdate: 1/20/1995 (22) Hometown: Edinburgh, ScotlandPrevious Club: Heart of Midlothian Acquired: Signed 7/10/2017

Nicholson became MNUFC’s first signing of the summer on June 28. The 22-year-old joined the Loons from Hearts after playing a major role in the club’s promotion to the Scottish Premiership, scoring a career-high five goals and adding six assists. He played nearly every match in Hearts’ return to the top flight, guiding them to a spot in the Europe League. Nicholson now has his eyes set on success stateside after making his MLS debut vs. New York Red Bulls on July 22.

# 4 J E R M A I N E TA Y L O R | D E F E N D E RHeight: 5’10” Weight: 195 Birthdate: 1/14/1985 (32) Hometown: Portland, JamaicaPrevious Club: Portland Timbers Acquired: Signed 1/24/2017

Jamaica international Taylor had six years of MLS experience prior to joining MNUFC, featuring for Houston Dynamo (2011-15) and most recently Portland Timbers (2016), where he started 21 of 23 matches. He is a strong and experienced defender who is not afraid to lay into his opponents despite standing at just 5’10”. Taylor has made over 80 appearances for Jamaica, including six starts (three clean sheets) during the Gold Cup in July.

# 2 6 C O L L E N W A R N E R | M I D F I E L D E RHeight: 5’10” Weight: 178 Birthdate: 6/24/1988 (28) Hometown: Denver, ColoradoPrevious Club: Houston Dynamo Acquired: Expansion Draft (#4 pick) 12/13/2016

Warner is a box-to-box midfielder who can cover ground and protect his attacking players. He brings great MLS experience to MNUFC; Drafted 15th overall by Real Salt Lake in the 2010 MLS SuperDraft, Warner appeared off and on with RSL before being taken by Montreal in the 2011 expansion draft. He played the 2016 season with the Houston Dynamo. Appearing as a starter and substitute this year, Warner has one goal to his name, in the 5-2 loss to New England Revolution on March 25.

# 2 2 K E V I N V E N E G A S | D E F E N D E RHeight: 5’10” Weight: 165 Birthdate: 7/29/1989 (27) Hometown: Lakewood, CaliforniaPrevious Club: Minnesota United FC Acquired: Signed 12/1/2016

Venegas has starred for Minnesota over his five years with the club as both a midfielder and a defender. He’s one of the most physically fit players in the squad and brings a special flair to the field, with a knack for beating defenders with his footwork when going forward. His box-to-box play as a right back earned him a spot in the 2015 NASL Best XI. This season, he’s slotted into the starting XI seamlessly on six occasions.

# 1 1 J O H A N V E N E G A S | M I D F I E L D E RHeight: 6’0” Weight: 168 Birthdate: 11/27/1988 (28) Hometown: Puerto Limón, Costa RicaPrevious Club: Montreal Impact Acquired: Trade 1/13/2016

Venegas often featured on the wing for Montreal Impact, showing pace, flair and technique as one of the club’s most dangerous attacking players off the bench. With MNUFC, the Costa Rica international has started 11 of 14 MLS matches, scoring in the 4-2 victory over Real Salt Lake and the equalizer at Houston Dynamo. He’s been in and out of the side due to his participation in the Gold Cup with Los Ticos, where he went off injured in the first half of a group-stage win vs. Honduras.

# 3 J E R O M E T H I E S S O N | D E F E N D E RHeight: 5’9” Weight: 155 Birthdate: 8/6/1987 (29) Hometown: Zurich, SwitzerlandPrevious Club: FC Luzern Acquired: Signed 2/21/2017

Thiesson spent the past six seasons in the Swiss Super League, where he started 204 of 222 matches in league play, scoring two goals. Since joining MNUFC, the Swiss native has been a mainstay in the back line, proving pivotal with his ability to play at left or right back. In addition to his defensive contributions, Thiesson has scored one goal for the Loons this season: the equalizer in the 2-2 draw with Vancouver Whitecaps FC on June 24.

Heath was appointed head coach in Nov. 2016. After playing over 18 years in Europe, Heath spent the next 11 years coaching in England for clubs such as Burnley, Sheffield United and Coventry City before coming to the United States in 2008. The Englishman was named head coach of the USL expansion side Austin Aztex. The team spent two years in Austin before relocating to Orlando in 2010, to become Orlando City. In just four years under Heath, Orlando City won two USL Pro championships and three Commissioner’s Cups. The club joined MLS in 2015, and Heath’s influence helped build the team for a very successful inaugural season, narrowly missing out on the playoffs.

U.S.A. CAPTURE SIXTH GOLD CUP TITLE ALL-TIME REGULAR SEASON RESULTS V. MIN

2017 PLAYER STATS

The U.S. Men’s National Team utilized goals from Jozy Altidore and Jordan Morris to defeat Jamaica 2-1

and claim the 2017 CONCACAF Gold Cup in front of 63,032 fans at Levi’s Stadium. The victory marks the

USA’s sixth all-time confederation championship and makes Bruce Arena the first head coach to win the

competition on three occasions.

In another match where the U.S. managed most of the possession, the game’s first chance also served

as a pivotal moment. In the 19th minute, Altidore picked up a loose ball and blasted an effort from dis-

tance that saw Jamaica ‘keeper Andre Blake sprawl out to make the save. Kellyn Acosta followed up the

rebound, but Blake got enough of a touch to slow his effort down before Damion Lowe cleared it off the

line. While the danger subsided, Jamaica suffered a serious blow as Blake injured his hand on the play

and was replaced by Dwayne Miller in the 23rd minute.

Just before halftime, captain Michael Bradley was fouled 30 yards from goal following a nice build-up

through midfield. On the ensuing free kick, Altidore stepped up and curled a brilliant effort over the

Jamaica wall before it squeezed past Miller and inside the upper left corner to send the U.S. into the

locker room with a 1-0 lead.

While the goal could have been back-breaking, Jamaica came out of the locker room still inspired and

pulled level in the 50th minute when Kemar Lawrence’s corner kick from the right picked out Je-Vaughn

Watson in stride before the midfielder volleyed home his effort at the back post.

The match opened up after Jamaica’s leveler with both teams carving out goal-scoring opportunities

only to be denied by excellent goalkeeping at both ends. However, the USA’s relentless pressure finally

told in the 88th minute when substitute Gyasi Zardes sent a cross into the Reggae Boyz’ six-yard box.

The resulting clearance was knocked down by Clint Dempsey into the path of Morris, who rifled a shot

into the top right corner for the game winner.


On the start of the game…

“We were not ready to start the the game. When that happens, I have to look at myself and maybe take some blame on that. We’re in

Seattle three days ago, and that probably had something to do with the start…but it’s no excuse. We had a poor start, went down 3-0,

and then the game’s very difficult at that point.”

On subbing in Nick DeLeon…

“We wanted Nick to get back into the fold and it was the first game he was really available to get significant minutes. He’s fearless

and he doesn’t blink no matter who he plays against or what position he’s in. He just comes onto the field and brings what he’s

brought ever since he got to this club. And we need that right now. We need guys like Nicky.”

On regrouping from two tough results this week…

“We’ll be ok. Next week we’ll have a full starting lineup, and we’ll compete in training this week. We’ll put together, probably, our

best lineup of the year next week and we’ll be rested. Our inability to still find ways to make plays in the defensive end right now has

been very poor. We've given up very soft goals…if we can fix that, we can get back to being a sound defensive team.”

On belief in the team…

“I know you guys don’t believe it when I say it, but I do have a lot of belief in this group. I do.”

D.C. United defender Bobby Boswell

On what went wrong defensively...

“A team like Houston, they counter attack. That’s their whole game plan, we already knew they were going to sit back and try to

counter attack. When you give them a free goal to start that off, I think we got a little out of our element and started trying to go

chase the goal right back and they score another one. Then one, two, three: It’s pretty much game over at that point. For me, it

comes down to the first goal. You know, you can’t give up a set piece goal. … I think the players need to look in the mirror, myself

included, and realize that no one has a spot on this team. You gotta earn it every day. If we do that, we give ourselves more of a

chance.”

On holding players accountable…

“They say on good teams, coaches hold the players accountable. On great teams, players hold the players accountable. We gotta do

a better job, I think...fighting for each other. We gotta figure it out as a group or we’ll die individually.”

D.C. United defender Nick DeLeon

On Ben Olsen’s message before going in...

“He just told me to find a spark and flash, so just to go in and bring some high energy to help to turn the game around and my men-

tality was that when I got the ball to just try and make something happen—go forward, I definitely went back a little bit too much. My

mentality was just to push and bring energy to the game.”

On bringing high energy…

“Whether my touch is on, whether my touch is bad whether my shot is on or my passes are on, you can always bring high energy and

you can always play with that spark—you can always play with that fire and that’s what I try and do.”

DEFENDER NICK DELEON QUOTES

DEFENDER BOBBY BOSWELL QUOTES

HEAD COACH BEN OLSEN QUOTES


On the first half of the game...

"We gave up three goals in the first half, that’s not good enough. First fifteen minutes really."

On the losing stretch...

"We’re just trying to push through and it’s been tough, it’s just one of those stretches … something’s just not clicking right now."

D.C. United forward Deshorn Brown

On the scrambles and chances in front of the net...

"It was pretty difficult, we came in here at halftime talking about what we want to do and trying to get back in the game. Like you

said, there were a lot of chances in the second half in front of the goal and I guess it just wasn’t our day today, nothing was going our

way, it’s just one of those games."

On staying focused...

"It’s pretty rough to be honest, but it’s just a part of football. I’ve seen worse happen and you just can’t let these two games get in

your head. I don’t like to lose, nobody does, so you just have to tell yourself next time to be better."
