The 1999 New England Revolution season was the fourth season for the New England Revolution both as a club and in Major League Soccer (MLS). As the club did not participate in the 1999 U.S. Open Cup, and did not qualify for the MLS Cup Playoffs, they participated only in the MLS regular season.2024 Media Guide New England Revolution https://revolution.1rmg.com/season/2024/media-guide/ 22 March 2024 March 22, 2024 https://web.archive.org/web/20240322013528/https://revolution.1rmg.com/season/2024/media-guide/ bot: unknown
Summary
At the end of the 1998 season, Walter Zenga made history by becoming the league's fist-ever player-manager.https://www.southcoasttoday.com/story/sports/1998/10/29/revs-name-zenga-player-coach/50537272007/ Revs name Zenga player-coach Szostak, Mike September 19, 2024 October 29, 1998 Zenga's Revolution showed their intent to return to the playoffs for the first time since 1997 by signing former United States men's national soccer team captain John Harkes, and 1996 MLS All-Stars Giovanni Savarese and Dan Calichman prior to the 1999 Major League Soccer season.https://newengland-mp7static.mlsdigital.net/elfinderimages/media/ClubHistory_CoachandPlayerRegistry.pdf Club History Coach and Player Registry https://web.archive.org/web/20180612135826/https://newengland-mp7static.mlsdigital.net/elfinderimages/media/ClubHistory_CoachandPlayerRegistry.pdf June 12, 2018 September 18, 2024 dead Zenga's Revolution got its first win on April 3. The team made several acquisitions in mid-season, including then-highest-paid MLS player of all time Ariel Graziani, two-time MLS Cup champion Mario Gori, two-time MLS All-Star Leonel Alvarez, and Jeff Baicher, but were unable to make a run, going on a ten-game winless streak from early July to early September, then winning only two of their final six matches to round out the season. On September 30, following a loss to the Dallas Burn, the Revolution made a late-season coaching change (for the second year in a row) as Zenga was relieved of his playing and coaching duties and replaced by Steve Nicol for the team's final two matches.https://web.archive.org/web/20160214205431/http://archive.revolutionsoccer.net/history/ http://archive.revolutionsoccer.net/history/ February 14, 2016 September 6, 2024 New England Revolution History - 1996-2007
Despite poor on-field performance, fan support remained strong for the Revolution. The club's average home attendance of 16,735 was fourth-highest in the league.1999 Full Season Stats http://www.mlssoccer.com/1999-full-season-stats dead https://web.archive.org/web/20140108232933/http://www.mlssoccer.com/1999-full-season-stats January 8, 2014 September 23, 2024 Major League Soccer Joe-Max Moore's 15 goals tied him for fourth-highest total in the league with San Jose's Ronald Cerritos. Moore, Harkes, and Zenga were all named to the 1999 MLS All-Star Game. Despite these accolades, the Revolution would miss the playoffs for the second season in a row, recording a record of 7 wins and 20 losses, placing fifth in the Eastern Conference and 10th in the overall MLS table.https://mlssoccer.app.box.com/s/xvks2sfia70gsowb4qyh61c7ytqpbnht 2024 MLS Fact & Record Book September 23, 2024
