Let’s start with a very disappointing-yet-important detail: Saturday’s match between the Chicago Fire and Orlando City (10:30 a.m. CT, Exploria Stadium) will be played behind closed doors. Unlike all the Fire’s other preseason matches, this one will not be streamed live.
Some coaches get very secretive when it comes to scrimmages and preseason matches. Fire head coach Raphael Wicky isn’t one of them. Stream or no stream, the Fire play the same way.
“Look, if anyone wants to find our games or get our games, they will get our games,” Wicky said this week.
