MATCH NOTES: Fury FC Injury/Suspension Report: Philippe Davies: 6-8 weeks – Arm (March 28) Points of Interest: The captain of the Canadian Men’s National team, Julian De Guzman, is expected to make his home debut Saturday. Fury FC Fanatics program now includes 24 partner clubs from Ottawa/Gatineau and the surrounding region. NASL Team of the Week: After making several clutch saves last Saturday in Atlanta to secure the club’s first point of the season, goalkeeper Romuald Peiser was named to the NASL Team of the Week. Scouting Minnesota United: They finished the 2014 season as the NASL Regular Season Champions, but were unable to repeat that success in the postseason. An already strong team, made themselves a lot stronger in the off-season with the additions of Ibson, Kalif Alhassan and Jonny Steele. The Loons played to a 0-0 draw in their season opener last Saturday in Tampa Bay. Head-to-Head: Perhaps Ottawa’s biggest rival from their inaugural season, Minnesota took three 1-goal victories over Fury FC with both wins in Ottawa coming in stoppage time. These matches were entertaining, feisty and full of goals. Coach Quote: “We don’t need to motivate our players for a game like this one. Everyone is aware of the determination and commitment that is required if we want to succeed in front of our fans. Minnesota are the 2014 Regular Season champions, so we know that we will have to be at our best on Saturday afternoon. The support of our fans will be crucial and definitely a difference maker.” – Marc Dos Santos.

MATCH NOTES:

Fury FC Injury/Suspension Report: Philippe Davies: 6-8 weeks – Arm (March 28)

Points of Interest: The captain of the Canadian Men’s National team, Julian De

Guzman, is expected to make his home debut Saturday. Fury FC Fanatics program

Scouting Minnesota United: They finished the 2014 season as the NASL Regular

Season Champions, but were unable to repeat that success in the postseason. An

additions of Ibson, Kalif Alhassan and Jonny Steele. The Loons played to a 0-0 draw in

their season opener last Saturday in Tampa Bay.

Head-to-Head: Perhaps Ottawa’s biggest rival from their inaugural season,

Minnesota took three 1-goal victories over Fury FC with both wins in Ottawa coming

in stoppage time. These matches were entertaining, feisty and full of goals.

Coach Quote: “We don’t need to motivate our players for a game like this one.

Everyone is aware of the determination and commitment that is required if we want

to succeed in front of our fans. Minnesota are the 2014 Regular Season champions, so

we know that we will have to be at our best on Saturday afternoon. The support of

our fans will be crucial and definitely a difference maker.” – Marc Dos Santos.

MATCH PREVIEW:

It has been almost six months since Fury FC played at TD Place and when they kick-off their 2015 home calendar they will do

so the same way they did the 2014 campaign – against Minnesota United FC.

The two sides played three spirited and entertaining games in 2014 that saw last year’s regular season champs take victory on

all three occasions; twice finding the match winner in stoppage time. Perhaps a rivalry in the making between two of the

League’s more northern clubs that is sure to add another entertaining chapter on Saturday.

“We don’t need to motivate our players for a game like this one,” said Marc Dos Santos ahead of his club’s home opener.

“Everyone is aware of the determination and commitment that is required if we want to succeed in front of our fans.

Minnesota are the 2014 Regular Season champions, so we know that we will have to be at our best on Saturday afternoon. The

support of our fans will be crucial and definitely a difference maker.”

For the first time this season, Marc Dos Santos will have the unenviable task of picking his Starting XI with, at long last, a

healthy squad. The only blemish in his squad is midfielder Phil Davies who is expected to miss the better part of the Spring

Season with a broken arm. Captain Richie Ryan, midfielder Sinisa Ubiparipovic and forward Paulo Junior are all fit to play and

veteran midfielder and Canadian International Julian De Guzman will return from suspension and is expected to make his

home debut.

Nicki Paterson made the most of his season debut scoring the opening goal in Atlanta and goalkeeper Romuald Peiser made a

handful of timely saves to help Fury FC collect their first point of the 2015 season with a 1-1 draw against the Silverbacks. Dos

Santos and his players now look to build on the point and with the squad return to full health, the confidence and excitements

for Saturday’s home opener was evident at training all week.

Minnesota finished the 2014 season as the NASL Regular Season Champions, but were unable to repeat that success in the

postseason. After a bye-week in Week 1 of NASL action, the Loons opened their 2015 season last Saturday in Tampa Bay and

were held to a scoreless draw.

Boasting one of the top back lines in the NASL, Minnesota United focused a lot of their off-season attention on bolstering their

depth in midfield. With US International Miguel Ibarra serving as their midfield engine last season, the Loons added

experienced Brazilian midfielder Ibson, Kalif Alhassan from the Portland Timers and Northern Ireland International Jonny

Steele. With an already impressive attack led by the NASL’s 2014 Golden Boot winner Christian Ramirez and 2012 Golden Boot

winner Pablo Campos, Minnesota’s attacking ability could prove to be just as effective as their impressive defence.

The first leg of the Amway Canadian Championship’s preliminary round kicks off Wednesday night at 7:30pm (April 22) at TD

Place as Fury FC tackle FC Edmonton. Ottawa returns to NASL action April 25 hosting the Fort Lauderdale Strikers at 3:00pm.

About Ottawa Fury FC

Ottawa became the 9th club in the modern era of the North American Soccer

League on June 20, 2011 when the NASL awarded an expansion franchise

granted to the Ottawa Sports and Entertainment Group (OSEG). On February

26, 2013 it was announced that Ottawa's newest pro sports team would bear

the name Ottawa Fury FC - a named already deeply rooted in the Ottawa

soccer community. Ottawa Fury FC play out of TD Place at the redeveloped

Lansdowne Park.

Prior to being granted an NASL franchise, the organization existed as the

Ottawa Fury Soccer Club - one of the most recognizable names at the

development level across North America. Founded in 2000, current Fury FC

President and OSEG Partner John Pugh purchased the Fury franchise in 2002

and would spend the next decade building one of the most respected youth

academies in North America, a successful PDL program that has seen players

move on to the professional ranks and the W-League's most storied

franchise that captured a North American Championship in 2012. The Club

boasted several successful grassroots, skill development and community

programs that, alongside the Youth Academy, continue under the Fury FC

banner.
