Change in MLS Water Break Rule Could Affect Play for Orlando City in 2016

For the 2016 season, MLS has implemented a change in the rules regarding water breaks. Orlando City will most likely be the team most affected by the new rule.

Orlando City is etched in the annals of MLS history, but not for what you would think. The Lions are the first team ever to have an official water break in MLS play. Back on June 14 at the Citrus Bowl, Orlando played D.C. United. At the 30-minute mark, just after Kaká scored the only goal of the game, the water break occurred.
