Costa Rica sack coach Medford

Quote:



Costa Rica fired coach Hernan Medford on Friday as a result of their long winless streak in the run up to their 2010 FIFA World Cup™ qualifiers, local media reported.

"At last I'm free," Medford said after a meeting with the country's soccer federation chiefs, according to Costa Rican newspaper La Nacion.

Under Medford, Costa Rica went 12 successive games without a victory until they beat Grenada 3-0 on June 21 in the second leg of a FIFA World Cup qualifier. The two sides drew 2-2 in the first leg. He was capped 89 times as a player and had been in charge since October 2006.

The win sent Costa Rica to the next round of qualifying. They have qualified for the FIFA World Cup three times and reached the second round of the 1990 finals in Italy.

Not surprised....they have been wanting to get rid of him for a while...

Him and Hugo Sanchez were the same....talked a bunch of crap to get their respective coaching jobs and didn't do anything once they got it.
