If Saturday’s game in Miami will indeed go down as FC Edmonton’s final NASL match, or, gulp, last contest ever no matter the league, it was at least nice to see that the club’s all-time leading scorer added to his tally. Daryl Fordyce roofed a penalty kick in the 56th minute after he was brought down in the penalty area …

But Saturday’s game felt different than any other home-season-ender. We don’t know what the future holds. Heck, we don’t know in what league FC Edmonton will play in 2018, or if the team will play at all. Instead of “see you next year,” the handshakes with the broadcast crew and the stadium regulars had a feel of “we’ll see you… sometime?”

He said that the fans would “need to cut the players some slack.” He said it was difficult for Edmonton, who have been training outside in temperatures around the freezing mark, to come to Miami and then adjust to steamy conditions.

Ubiparipovic’s 63rd-minute shot from the top of the box found the top corner of the Eddies’ goal, giving the Indy Eleven a 1-0 home win in the first of two NASL Championship seminfinals played in Saturday.

Fisk, who came on as a second-half sub, took a pass from fullback Shawn Nicklaw and then fired the ball across Eleven keeper Jon Busch and into the corner of the goal.

It was only the Eddies second loss in 10 games. But, you might have figured that this one was gonna be a problem for FCE.

The analysis of FC Edmonton’s spring-season finale — a 3-0 loss on the road to the Indy Eleven — has to begin by looking at the decision to yank keeper John Smits at halftime.
