On Saturday afternoon the North Carolina Courage hosted the Orlando Pride for a friendly preseason match. It was the first preseason scrimmage for the Pride but the fourth for the Courage, and it was obvious which team was in better form. The Courage scored four goals without conceding despite the Pride finding a few good looks early in the match. The 4-0 victory on Saturday followed a 4-0 win at Wake Forest on Tuesday and a 2-0 win over UNC on Wednesday. The Courage will still have two more preseason matches before the start of the regular season on April 13th.
