The final test of the preseason came with a failing grade for Orlando City. Although both Marco Pasalic and Eduard Atuesta said after the game that it was perhaps a good thing for the Lions to suffer defeat to stay grounded after getting some positive results throughout the preseason, the team’s 4-1 loss to the Colorado Rapids Saturday night at Inter&Co Stadium wasn’t a lot of fun for Orlando City’s season ticket members to watch, considering the 2026 regular season starts in six days.

Here are some of the takeaways I had from the match.

Orlando Has Little to No Experienced Depth

One look at the bench from Orlando City’s match lineup Saturday was concerning. Of the 10 players on the bench for Saturday’s friendly against Colorado, nine of them — everyone not named Duncan McGuire — had made a combined 17 appearances for just 289 total minutes in MLS play. If you remove Javier Otero from that total, the entire bench had made just 14 MLS appearances for just 48 total minutes. Four of the bench players (Dylan Judelson, Pedro Leao, Nolan Miller, and Tahir Reid-Brown) have combined for zero MLS appearances, while Justin Ellis has just a two-minute runout in one match to his name.

Aside from captain Robin Jansson, the team was missing Designated Player Martin Ojeda, second-year central midfielder Joran Gerbet (knee), rookie Harvey Sarajian (back tightness), right back Zakaria Taifi (tight hamstring), and new MLS U22 Initiative signing Luis Otavio (undisclosed injury, although Head Coach Oscar Pareja said the news on Otavio is positive and he should return soon). That means of the unavailable players not named Jansson, Ojeda, or Gerbet, the club’s players who missed the match have a combined six appearances for 34 minutes in MLS play — all from Taifi, and not all at right back where he is expected to play.

Ricardo Moreira appears to be letting the kids play, but it’s fair to ask if it’s wise to have that many kids as a safety net during rotation, injuries, and suspensions? Going young is one way to look at it; completely lacking depth is another.

Back Line Not Ready for Prime Time

Without Jansson (foot) and the only true right back on the roster, Zakaria Taifi (tight hamstring), Orlando City’s back line did nothing Saturday to discourage feelings that the club did not do enough to address the defense in the off-season. It’s easy to rip on Iago, who had a brutal night, but the young Brazilian has only been with the club for a week, so it’s fair to say he’s still learning his teammates’ names, let alone how they play, Orlando City’s system, and how to play against MLS attacking players.

“We are a young team. We have a lot of young guys,” Atuesta said. “That’s the rhythm of the league, so it was good for them to know, because they are new in the league. They are new in the team. It was good for them to know that’s the rhythm we’re going to play every game this season.”

Aside from Iago’s issues defensively — he got roasted by Rafael Navarro on the second Colorado goal, allowing a point-blank header and got caught too high up the pitch a few times — he looks like a bright young talent. He was a problem for the Rapids in the box on set pieces, nearly getting onto an Atuesta corner kick in the first half despite fighting through traffic.

Ivan Angulo worked his tail off, as usual, but he does not appear to be the answer at right back. He was, perhaps filling in for Taifi, but that shows how thin the back line is after the departures of Alex Freeman, Kyle Smith, Dagur Dan Thorhallsson, Rodrigo Schlegel, and Thomas Williams. The first two Colorado goals were served in from Angulo’s area of defense.

“He’s a winger, and we’re trying to fill in a spot that is empty at the moment,” Pareja said. “We have Taifi there, but Taifi had some difficulties during the week, his hamstring was tight, so couldn’t (play), so we have been trying with Ivan to see if we can have some solutions there. That’s the reality. And the game exposes sometimes the lack of experience in the position, and that’s what happened.”

David Brekalo, presumably the one stalwart who started Saturday, was caught flatfooted in transition multiple times, and taking into account how much he has to cover for a non-defender to his right and a kid who only came to the U.S. a week ago, it’s hard to judge him too harshly.

The lone player who looked OK on the back line was left back Adrian Marin, who appeared more comfortable and sturdy than in his few appearances last season. This team needs Jansson healthy as soon as possible, and it needs more depth.

Strikers Gotta Strike

With an open Designated Player slot, many fans are hoping the club signs a potent striker — one who creates his own chances and finishes them. That was not on display Saturday, although one match does not a season make. The two who took turns in the position were MLS U22 Initiative signing Tiago, who started, and McGuire, who came off the bench early in the second half to replace him.

Tiago was virtually invisible, though he pressed well, looks to have good quickness and speed, and seems to understand what he’s being asked to do. However, Colorado’s defenders spent 54 minutes putting Tiago in their pocket, even when a great ball seemed all but certain to unlock the young Brazilian for a scoring chance. Tiago got no help at times, however, including an overcooked back-post pass from Spicer he couldn’t get to, which would have given him an easy tap-in during the first half.

McGuire was given much better service to work with, but his troubles Saturday were somewhat self-inflicted. Teammates gave him a couple of glorious long balls that should have put the striker in alone on goal. McGuire’s first touch let him down on both, taking him wide to the left on the first. He still got a shot off and put it on target, but the angle made it easy for Zack Steffen to stop. The second heavy touch took him too far to the right on an incredible curling pass from rookie defender Miller, who deputized as a reserve right back. McGuire didn’t even get a shot away on the second, although he did win a corner. Given McGuire’s track record, he’ll likely have better games ahead, and at least he was putting himself in dangerous positions.

A Moment of Magic from Edu

As this column is no doubt seemingly focused on the negative thus far, it’s time to turn things around. I have to mention Atuesta’s superb free kick that accounted for Orlando City’s lone goal on the night. Tyrese Spicer (more on him in a moment) set the play up by winning a free kick just outside the box just left of center, midway between the semicircle and the top corner of the penalty area. Atuesta and Pasalic both stood over the ball, provding both a right-footed and left-footed threat on the set piece.

The two players discussed the set piece while Steffen set up his wall, placing a defender on the ground in case Orlando tried a hard, low shot when the wall jumped. Pasalic told Atuesta to take it because the position of the kick was better for a right-footed player. The two conferred, and Atuesta had to choose between going near post and far post.

“I just asked (Pasalic) if he was seeing the same thing that I was seeing about the first or second post,” Atuesta said. “But when I see one of (Steffen’s) players going to the first post, I know that the keeper was too worried about that post, so he chose for me at that moment. I just tried to put the ball to the second (post), that’s all.”

Atuesta could hardly have delivered a better curling effort around the wall and inside the right post for the only goal the Lions scored in the match.

Spicer the Slicer

Drawing the free kick that led to the only Orlando City goal was far from Spicer’s only involvement in the game. The Trinidad & Tobago international was probably Orlando City’s most active player. Playing his usual left wing spot, Spicer was one of the most creative attackers in the match. Though he lacked accuracy on the night, he led Orlando’s attack in shots in the first half (there were no stats for the game, but anecdotally, he had three shots but none were on frame. He also got down the flank a few times and sent in some dangerous crosses, but just put a bit too much on the aforementioned opportunity to set up Tiago. Colorado played a well-organized defensive game and did well to cut out a few other tries. Although Spicer was a bit impatient at times, sending balls into the area without support or numbers, he learned from it and curled back, allowing his teammates to join the attack more in the second half. Spicer’s combination of speed and power is impressive, and when he gets a bit more locked in, he’s going to be a problem for Orlando City opponents.

Those are the things that stuck out to me watching Orlando’s final preseason match of 2026. It’s fair to say that fans should have concerns with the roster construction and the overall lack of experience. There will be growing pains as the new guys get settled in. However, there were some positives. In addition to those mentioned above, Wilder Cartagena and Braian Ojeda both looked good. Orlando controlled the match between the boxes. The struggles came in transition defending and precision in the quality third — the latter being an area that is commonly the last piece to come together for most MLS teams early in the year.

Additionally, Atuesta, Pasalic, and Pareja all came across as extremely confident that the team has plenty of talent, is getting better every day, and just needs time for the chemistry to build.

“We were not ready to be the champion last week, when we won against Cincinnati, and (Saturday), for sure, we’re not the worst team in the league,” Atuesta said.

There’s also still a Designated Player slot to fill, so at some point — and it may not be until summer — more help is on the way.

Orlando City vs. New York City FC: Preview, How to Watch, TV Info, Live Stream, Lineups, Match Thread, and More

The Lions hit the road for the first time in 2026, hoping to turn things around and get their first win of the season.

Welcome to your match thread and preview for a Saturday matinee matchup between Orlando City (0-2-0, 0 points) and New York City FC (1-0-1, 4 points) at Yankee Stadium (2:30 p.m., Apple TV). This is the first of the two scheduled meetings between the Lions and Pigeons this season with the return leg in Orlando set for Oct. 24.

Here is what you need to know ahead of the match.

History

The Lions are 7-11-8 in 26 meetings with NYCFC in the all-time series in MLS play and 7-11-10 including one playoff match and one U.S. Open Cup meeting (remember, games that go to penalty shootouts in knockout competitions officially count as draws). Orlando is 2-8-2 on the road in regular-season games in the all-time series. Things have trended the Pigeons’ way the last few years, as the Lions are 0-5-2 in the last seven meetings between the teams.

The teams met twice last year and NYCFC swept the season series. In the most recent matchup, Orlando City blew a late 1-0 lead at home on July 16 through Robin Jansson’s goal. But Rodrigo Schlegel smashed a clearance attempt off Kyle Smith and into his own net just a few minutes before the end of normal time, tying the game. Alonso Martinez scored the winner on a counterattack in stoppage time to end the game 2-1 in favor of the visitors.

In Orlando City’s first road game of the 2025 season, the Lions fell 2-1 at Yankee Stadium on March 8. Martinez opened the scoring in the second half, with Luis Muriel equalizing. However, just two minutes after Muriel’s goal, Hannes Wolf scored what turned out to be the game winner.

In Orlando, on July 20, 2024, the two 2015 expansion rivals played to a 1-1 draw. Ramiro Enrique and Wolf traded goals five minutes apart in the second half to account for all the scoring. The Lions and Pigeons met at Yankee Stadium on June 28, 2025, with New York City FC winning 4-2. An early Santiago Rodriguez goal opened the scoring and then things went horribly wrong when an obviously offside Malachi Jones collided hard with Orlando goalkeeper Mason Stajduhar. Both players left the game and both had season-ending surgery to repair broken tibias and fibulas. Javier Otero made his MLS debut in goal off the bench and the Lions allowed two goals in first-half stoppage time to let a close game get out of hand. Orlando pulled two goals back through Dagur Dan Thorhallsson and Duncan McGuire, but Mounsef Bakrar sealed the game late for NYCFC.

The teams met at Citi Field — a different baseball stadium than NYCFC’s usual one — on Sept. 20, 2023. The Pigeons were rude hosts, winning 2-0 on goals by Bakrar and Talles Magno. It snapped Orlando’s five-game unbeaten run but the Lions clinched a playoff spot that day anyway due to other results around the league. These teams also met in Orlando on May 17, and with the Lions poised for a 1-0 win, NYCFC eked out a late 1-1 draw with an 89th-minute Gabriel Segal goal out of nowhere. Ercan Kara scored for Orlando City early.

The teams faced off at Red Bull Arena (one of NYCFC’s many homes away from home) on Oct. 2, 2022, with the Pigeons erasing a 1-0 halftime deficit that Facundo Torres provided. The “hosts” got second-half goals from Alex Callens and Magno to complete the comeback and win, 2-1. Earlier in the year at Exploria Stadium, the Lions got a Tesho Akindele goal at the death, stunning NYCFC as Orlando City won 2-1 on Aug. 28, 2022. Junior Urso and Maxi Moralez had scored early in the first and second half, respectively.

Orlando City had a five-game unbeaten streak in the series (1-0-4) absolutely demolished on July 25, 2021 in a 5-0 OCSC loss at Yankee Stadium. The Lions started a makeshift lineup, and it showed, as the Pigeons got goals from Jesus Medina, Ismael Tajouri-Shradi, Moralez, Malte Amundsen, and Valentin Castellanos. Why the makeshift lineup? That match was sandwiched between home games against Philadelphia and Atlanta, with quick turnarounds for each. The strategy was sound, as Orlando won the other two games in that nine-day span.

The teams met in Orlando on May 8, 2021 and drew 1-1. Nani smashed a golazo in the second half to put the Lions on top, but Joao Moutinho fouled Tajouri-Shradi in the box and Castellanos scored from the spot to equalize.

The last meeting of the 2020 season happened in the postseason and things got weird. Orlando City ultimately prevailed in penalties after a 1-1 postseason draw on Nov. 21, 2020. Nani put Orlando ahead from the penalty spot, only to see Maxime Chanot equalize on a set piece. Extra time couldn’t settle it, so to penalties we went, and the Lions advanced thanks to a save by Schlegel — after goalkeeper Pedro Gallese was sent off with a second yellow for coming off his line early. Benji Michel’s blast was the difference in the shootout. (Seriously, just click the above link in this paragraph and relive that madness.)

The Lions and Pigeons wrapped the 2020 season series on Oct. 14 at Exploria Stadium, playing to a 1-1 draw. Chris Mueller opened the scoring but Keaton Parks equalized just before halftime. The first meeting of 2020 also took place in Central Florida in the MLS is Back Tournament on July 14, when Mueller’s brace and a late Akindele insurance goal led Orlando to a 3-1 win. Medina scored for NYCFC. That win snapped Orlando City’s 0-4-3 streak in the previous seven competitive meetings with the Pigeons. The last match in that winless streak against NYCFC was a 1-1 draw, with the Lions then dispatching NYCFC from the U.S. Open Cup in a penalty shootout on July 10, 2019. That night has been immortalized for the running of The Wall and Adam Grinwis’ heroics in goal.

The teams drew both regular-season meetings in 2019, 1-1 on April 27 at Yankee Stadium, and 2-2 on opening day at Exploria Stadium. NYCFC took all three meetings in a dismal 2018 season series. The Lions went 2-1-0 against New York City FC in 2017, including a win to christen the stadium now known as Exploria with Cyle Larin scoring the only goal in a 1-0 OCSC win. Orlando was 3-1-2 in 2015 and 2016 in the first six meetings with NYCFC.

Overview

Orlando City opened the season with two consecutive losses for the first time in club history. The Lions have played one good half and one bad one in each match but have yet to put a full 90 minutes together. Perhaps getting away from home would be a recipe to change the energy, but in this case, the club travels to one of its least-successful away venues. Orlando has been a decent road team since Oscar Pareja took over, but Yankee Stadium is still a difficult place for the Lions to pull points out of.

New York City FC, meanwhile, has opened the season unbeaten through two games with a win and a draw, and the Pigeons will be at home for the first time. This start is despite Martinez being out of the lineup due to injury. NYCFC opened the season with a road draw against the LA Galaxy and followed with a 2-1 win at Philadelphia. Like Orlando, the Pigeons have had three different goal scorers through two matches.

The Lions must try to keep Wolf at bay, as he’s hurt Orlando before and has one of his team’s goals already this season. Nicolas Fernández Mercau is another attacking player to watch. Moralez is always a dangerous provider and he too has hurt the Lions in the past. Defensive midfielder Keaton Parks has returned after blood clot issues a year ago and has picked up where he left off. In the back, Matt Freese is one of the league’s top goalkeepers, and Orlando will need to be clinical to beat him.

“First, we know in terms of results that we can bounce back. I think our team, in the last game, already gave us signs of improvement, cohesiveness, and doing what we need much more efficiently in order to win,” Orlando City Head Coach Oscar Pareja said ahead of the game. “Now we need to keep doing that but win games. And there’s no doubt that we are urgent to get results, and on a field this weekend that is a challenge, but I think we have a good mentality and that the boys are ready.”

Orlando City will be without Colin Guske (suspension), Joran Gerbet (knee), Wilder Cartagena (thigh), and Jansson (foot), while Adrian Marin (thigh) remains questionable. The good news is that center back Nolan Miller, who left last weekend’s game with a knock, is not on the availability report. NYCFC will be without Martinez (leg), Malachi Jones (leg), and former Lion Andres Perea (leg).

Intelligence Report: Orlando City vs. New York City FC

Get up to speed on this year’s NYCFC team, courtesy of someone who knows them best.

Another weekend brings another opportunity for Orlando City to pick up its first points of the still-young 2026 Major League Soccer season. To do that, OCSC will need to beat a team that is unbeaten through its first two games, as the Lions are heading to Yankee Stadium to take on New York City FC on Saturday.

A trip to the baseball diamond means I took the time to catch up with Matthew Mangam, who is one of the senior writers over at the independent and always excellent Hudson River Blue. He was kind enough to help us refamiliarize ourselves with the Pigeons, and I also answered some of his questions about Orlando City, which you can find over at their place.

Talk me through NYCFC’s off-season transfer business. Who went out the door, and who arrived to replace them?

Matthew Mangam: NYCFC’s biggest loss this off-season was Justin Haak, who joined the LA Galaxy as a free agent. Defensive midfielder and center back Kai Trewin joined the club from Melbourne City, serving as the unofficial replacement for Haak. Alonso Martínez, who tore his ACL, and Andrés Perea, who fractured his lower right leg, aren’t official departures but will spend most of the season recovering from their respective injuries. NYCFC also loaned out Julián Fernández and Mitja Ilenič. 

Of those new arrivals, who has been the most impressive through the first two games of the season?

MM: I’m going to cheat a little bit here and say Keaton Parks — he missed most of last season after undergoing surgery to address blood flow issues in his right leg. Since appearing in the season opener and starting the last game against Philadelphia, Parks looks like he hasn’t missed a beat. He’s contributed on both sides of the ball, bringing great energy and consistency. 

Who is an NYCFC player with the potential to be an X factor in this game, and why?

MM: Hannes Wolf. He scored the opening goal against Philadelphia in true Hannes Wolf fashion: opportunistically pouncing on a deflection in the box and burying it in the back of the net. The only issue is that Wolf struggles with consistency, but in his two seasons at NYCFC, he started each year in good form. I would say Nico Fernández Mercau could also be an X-factor, but he’s playing as the No. 9 — not his natural position — which has clearly affected him a bit.

Will anyone be unavailable due to injury, suspension, etc.? What is your projected starting lineup and score prediction?

MM: Besides Martínez and Perea being out with long-term injuries, NYCFC is healthy. Talles Magno is coming off a calf injury, which happened in preseason, but he will likely play at least 10 minutes off the bench. Jonny Shore is also working back to full fitness, so it’s unclear if he’ll get any time as a substitute on Saturday.

I expect NYCFC to keep its lineup the same from the win over Philadelphia:

Matt Freese; Kevin O’Toole, Raul Gustavo, Thiago Martins, Tayvon Gray; Aiden O’Neill, Keaton Parks; Agustin Ojeda, Maxi Moralez, Hannes Wolf; Nicolas Fernández Mercau.

I think NYCFC wins 2-0, with Wolf and Parks getting on the score sheet.

Thank you to Matthew for the excellent info on NYCFC. Vamos Orlando!

Dan MacDonald, The Mane Land

Happy Friday! It’s been a bit of a hectic week but I’m looking forward to spending the weekend enjoying some soccer and visiting my family for a birthday. Hopefully Orlando City can get a win on the road on Saturday and bring points back to the City Beautiful. Before we get started, we want to give a shout out to “Flip,” the latest subscriber at the TAM Player level in our Buy Me a Coffee membership program. Thanks for your support and welcome to The Mane Land family! Now, let’s jump right into today’s links!

Orlando City’s Leagues Cup Schedule Revealed

The schedule for this summer’s Leagues Cup is out and we now know which Liga MX teams Orlando City will play against. All three of Orlando’s games in the first phase of the tournament will be at Inter&Co Stadium, starting with a match against Monterrey on Aug. 5. The Lions will then take on Club Leon on Aug. 8 before playing San Luis on Aug. 12. Of the 18 MLS clubs taking part in the Leagues Cup, only the top four will advance to the knockout stage. Last year, the Lions went unbeaten across their four matches against Mexican teams before falling in the semifinals and the third-place match.

Orlando Pride Sign Reagan Raabe 

The Orlando Pride signed forward Reagan Raabe to a short-term contract that will last through June of this year. The 24-year-old has been with the club throughout its preseason as a non-roster invitee. Raabe joins the Pride following a collegiate career with the University of Nebraska, recording four goals and six assists in her final season after missing a couple of years due to injury. Hopefully she can continue to impress the coaching staff and make an impact this year.

Analyzing Colombia Ahead of USWNT Match

The United States Women’s National Team will play Colombia on Saturday in the final game of this year’s SheBelieves Cup. Colombia lost 4-1 to Canada in its first match but bounced back with a 1-0 win over Argentina. One of the top nations in South America, Colombia finished second in last year’s Copa America and boasts a versatile attack that does well with possession or in transition. The U.S. will need to limit Real Madrid forward Linda Caicedo as much as possible. The 21-year-old has scored in both of Colombia’s games this tournament and has the talent to create opportunities out of seemingly nothing.

WAFCON Postponed Until July

The Women’s Africa Cup of Nations, which was set to begin on March 17, has been postponed until July 25 and is set to last through Aug. 16. This decision comes amid reports that Morocco wished to withdraw as the tournament’s host and it’s unclear at this time if Morocco will still host it later this year. Many NWSL players are impacted by this change, including Orlando Pride forward Barbra Banda, whose Zambian side will face Nigeria, Malawi, and Egypt in the group stage. The tournament doubles as qualifying for the 2027 Women’s World Cup, with the quarterfinalists directly securing a spot in Brazil next summer.

Free Kicks

  • We have some rumored numbers to put to how much Orlando City was offering to pay Atletico Madrid attacker Antoine Griezmann. Even if the move doesn’t come to pass, I can appreciate the club taking a big swing.
  • Nothing is official yet, but the United States Men’s National Team’s jersey for the upcoming World Cup may have been spotted in the wild. It looks like the Waldo kit with a twist, literally.
  • Toronto FC officially added center back Benjamin Kuscevic on loan from Fortaleza in Brazil’s second division.
  • Walid Regragui stepped down as Morocco’s head coach with only a few months to go before the World Cup. Mohamed Ouahbi will take over for Regragui and it will be his first time coaching a senior team.
  • Relegation is growing into a real possibility for Tottenham, which lost its fifth-straight match after a 3-1 defeat to Crystal Palace.
  • Cristo Fernandez, who plays Dani Rojas on Ted Lasso, made a splash with a pair of goals in an exhibition match while training with Chicago Fire II.

That’s all I have for you this time around. I hope you all have a fantastic Friday and rest of your weekend. Go Orlando!
