Forward Madison FC kicked off professional soccer in Madison Saturday night, drawing 0-0 with Greenville Triumph SC in front of a sold-out, standing-room-only crowd at Breese Stevens Field. Forward’s fans partied through a snowstorm, singing, chanting and cheering on the team despite adverse weather, as 4,462 people and 260 plastic flamingos looked on at a historic night for soccer in Wisconsin.
Forward Madison will be back at home next Saturday, playing host to Toronto FC II in a game that promises, if nothing else, to be warmer than the previous one. Tickets are available here.
