Orlando City hits the road for the first time in 2018 this weekend to take on New York City FC in Yankee Stadium. While the Lions haven’t started the year as well as they might have liked, some of Head Coach Jason Kreis’s new pieces are finally coming into the fold. We’ll finally see the mustachioed maestro, Sacha Kljestan, in purple on Saturday.
The home side also has some new faces in light blue for Patrick Vieira, so we touched base with Christian Smith, managing editor of SB Nation’s NYCFC blog, Hudson River Blue, to learn more about this year’s version of the Pigeons.
