Shorthanded Orlando City kicks off road swing with match against NYCFC

Orlando City coach Jason Kreis remembers how the Lions’ last match against NYCFC went.

A depleted squad traveled to Yankee Stadium and – after some odd circumstances – actually played pretty well for about 60 minutes.

Orlando City got to the match late due to traffic. Despite a rushed warm-up period, the Lions kept the Pigeons from scoring for a while.

Then things fell apart. The Lions gift-wrapped goals and lost 2-0 to NYCFC.

Now Orlando City (6-5-1, 19 points) is looking to stop a three-match losing skid during Saturday’s road game against NYCFC (7-3-3, 24 points).
