The last-place San Jose Earthquakes fired head coach Luchi Gonzalez.
SAN JOSE — The San Jose Earthquakes have fired head coach Luchi Gonzalez, the team announced on Monday.
“We want to thank Luchi for his hard work, commitment to the club and professionalism,” said general manager Chris Leitch in a statement. “Luchi and his staff have worked extremely hard the past year and a half, but we have not met expectations this year as a club. We felt that we needed to make a change, and it was in the best interests of the club to move in a different direction.”
“I want to thank ownership, leadership and our fans for the opportunity and the support they gave me during my time managing the Earthquakes,” Gonzalez said in a statement. “I am very grateful to all the staff and players that worked hard every day to improve our situation and wish them the very best moving forward.”San Jose Earthquakes suffer 5-1 loss to New York City FC at Yankee Stadium
