Edison Flores was left without a coach at DC United shortly after the start of MLS. This Wednesday, April 20, the club decided to fire Hernán Losada after a year and three months in office, where he could not win any important title. They are now looking for a new strategist to take care of the remainder of the season.
The American team is the last in the Eastern Conference with just six points in six matches played in the tournament: two wins, four losses. In his last match of the main tournament he fell 3-2 to Austin FC with 'Orejas' on the substitute bench and unable to enter. However, in the last match played, in the framework of the thirty-second finals of the US Open Cup, he ended up winning 3-0 against Flower City with the former Universitario as the starter and with a great participation in the 90 minutes.
For now and on an interim basis, Chad Ashton will be in charge of directing until the board decides on a new DT. DC United's next match will be this Saturday, April 23 from 06:30pm (Peruvian time) against the New England Revolution, as part of matchday 11 of the United States first division.
Let's remember that Edison Flores is not exactly at his best level in his club and in 2022 he has barely played seven games with his squad. Only in two was the 90 minutes of play and it was in the 1-0 victory against Cincinnati and the duel by the cup. The other five matches he played this year were with the Peruvian national team, where Ricardo Gareca always trusted him.
EDISON FLORES WITH THE PERUVIAN NATIONAL TEAM
The winger appeared when the Peruvian national team needed it most, being key in the penultimate double date of the South American Qualifiers heading to Qatar 2022. He scored two goals, one against Colombia and the other against Ecuador, to get four points and put the 'white-roja' to fifth place in the standings.
Ricardo Gareca was key in this, calling him up and putting him on the list despite the little football in his club, even leaving out players like Gabriel Costa, who comes in a great moment at Colo-Colo. In total, former Monarcas Morelia played in 10 matches in the Conmebol tournament, starting in five and playing the 90 minutes alone in 2-0 against Paraguay in Lima, where the 'white-roja' won the World Cup playoff.
HERNÁN LOSADA CAREER
The Argentine began directing in 2019, when he was appointed as coach of the Under 21 category of the Beerschot of the Belgian Second Division. However, that same year and after a great performance, he was called by the first team to take over as DT in the middle of the season. The strategist was responsible for setting the path for the 2018-19 season and was in charge of leading the club to the Belgian first division of football.
After a few months with the European team and leaving him close to Europa League positions, Hernán Losada was called by DC United of the MLS, where Peruvian Edison Flores was already playing. However, the 27-year-old national footballer was injured most of the Argentine's stay.
