'''MŠK Žilina''' ({{IPA|sk|ˈem ˈeʂ ˈkaː ˈʐilina}}){{fix|text=wrong stress|date=June 2018}} is a Slovak [[association football|football]] club based in the town of [[Žilina]], that is playing in the [[Slovak First Football League]]. Since the league inception in 1993, the club has won 7 titles and comes second in All-time table that makes them one of the most successful teams in the competition.
The club and their supporters alike are nicknamed ''Šošoni'' (after the ''[[Shoshone]]'' Native American tribe) and play their home games in the [[Štadión pod Dubňom]]. Žilina won their most recent title in 2016–17 season.

==History==

===Early years===
The club was founded towards the end of 1908 under the Hungarian name ''Zsolnai Testgyakorlók Köre'', and was officially registered on 20 June 1909. The club won its first Slovak championship (Zväzové majstrovstvá Slovenska) in 1928 followed by another in 1929.{{citation needed|date=June 2017}}

===Czechoslovak League===
In total, Žilina played 30 out of 47 seasons<ref>''[https://www.rsssf.org/tablest/tsjslhist.html Czechoslovakia 1945–1993] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220717201553/https://www.rsssf.org/tablest/tsjslhist.html |date=17 July 2022 }}'', Malcolm Hodgson – Zbynek Pawlas, ''Rec.Sport.Soccer Statistics Foundation RSSSF''</ref> in the [[Czechoslovak First League]] spanning from 1945 to 1993 and come 13th in all-time table.<ref>''[https://www.rsssf.org/tablest/tsjsl-allt.html Czechoslovakia – All-Time Table 1925-2003] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240323143610/https://www.rsssf.org/tablest/tsjsl-allt.html |date=23 March 2024 }}'', Jiřν Slavνk, ''Rec.Sport.Soccer Statistics Foundation RSSSF''</ref> Their most successful was 1946–47 season, when they clinched 4th place.{{citation needed|date=July 2017}}

Many consider 1961 a milestone in club's history. Firstly, the team reached the final of the National Cup, where they lost to [[Dukla Prague]], the eventual Czechoslovak champion. Despite the defeat, for the first time in its history the club, then known as ''Dynamo Žilina'', broke into Europe to contest in the [[UEFA Cup Winners' Cup]]. Notable 3–2 and 1–0 victories over [[Olympiacos F.C.|Olympiacos]] moved them in quarter-finals, however the ambitious Slovak team was ultimately knocked out by the previous year's winner [[ACF Fiorentina|Fiorentina]]. Although Žilina grabbed a promising 3–2 victory at home, Fiorentina went through by winning the second leg 2–0.{{citation needed|date=June 2017}}

''Fiorentina won 4–3 on aggregate.''

In the late 1960s the club was renamed ''TJ ZVL Žilina'' and participated in the [[Intertoto Cup]] for several years, winning the group in 1969 and coming 2nd a year later. In 1973–74 they reached the final of the [[Mitropa Cup]] but they were defeated by [[FC Tatabanya|Tatabányai Bányász]] 5–2 on aggregate. Between 1972 and 1974, they finished 5th in the First Division of the Czechoslovak League for three years running, followed by relegation to the Second Division in the 1978–79 season. The club bounced back four years later and finished second in the [[Mitropa Cup]].{{citation needed|date=June 2017}}

===New era – Slovak League===
Following dissolution of [[Czechoslovakia]] in 1993, MŠK Žilina has been playing in the [[Slovak First Football League]] for the total of 23 seasons with the exception of 1995–96 season after relegation to the Second Division.{{citation needed|date=July 2017}}

In the autumn of 2000, former Czechoslovak defender [[Ladislav Jurkemik]] joined the club as a new manager. After his departure halfway through the 2001–02 season the club appointed Czech coach [[Leoš Kalvoda]]. During his short reign at the club he led them to win their first title. In the [[2002–03 Slovak Superliga|2002–03 season]], now under the management of Milan Lešický, the club succeeded in retaining the title.{{citation needed|date=July 2017}}

[[Ladislav Jurkemik]] was reappointed as a manager during the [[2003–04 Slovak Superliga|2003–04 season]]. He led the defending champions to 10 priceless consecutive victories to clinch the third successive title though narrowly on a goal difference. After [[ŠK Slovan Bratislava|Slovan Bratislava]], MŠK Žilina became only the second club to win three Slovak titles.

The team's performances in next two seasons faded while they lacked the quality they had been famous for during their winning campaigns. In pursuit of silverware numerous players were signed over next two years. In the span of only fourteen months, three managers; the reputable Karol Pecze, his successor Milan Nemec and eventually Marijan Vlak were in charge over the team. Since the results and performances never met the expectations, Vlak ended his reign immediately at the end of 2005–06 season after they failed to reach UEFA Cup spot only to finish fourth.{{citation needed|date=June 2017}}

[[File:Zilina vs Slovan.JPG|thumb|200px|MŠK Žilina take on [[ŠK Slovan Bratislava]] in May 2009]]

They played in the [[2008–09 UEFA Cup]], reaching the group stages where they beat [[Aston Villa F.C.|Aston Villa]] [[UEFA Cup 2008-09 group stage#Aston Villa v .C5.BDilina|2–1]] at [[Villa Park]].{{citation needed|date=June 2017}}

Former Czechoslovakia and later Czech international [[Pavel Hapal]] was appointed new manager before 2009–10 campaign. In his first season, he led the team to win a league title, their fifth in nine years. Arguably the greatest success in their history came by making a debut in [[2010–11 UEFA Champions League group stage]] after eliminating [[AC Sparta Prague|Sparta Prague]] in play-off round. In the following season they completed their first ever double, while the 2012–13 season saw the team finishing 7th – their worst league position since 2000. However, as a defeated finalists of the Slovak Cup the club secured a place to contest in the 1st qualifying round of [[2013–14 UEFA Europa League]].{{citation needed|date=June 2017}}

==Transfers==
MŠK have produced numerous players who have gone on to represent the [[Slovak national football team]]. Over the last period there has been a steady increase of young players leaving Žilina after a few years of first team football and moving on to play football in leagues of a higher standard, with the German [[Bundesliga]] (Double best scorer [[Marek Mintál]] to [[1.
