I’ll be at this one. If anyone else is coming reach out.

Whoa tickets are expensive. I’m guessing because of the Brazilian tourists/residents they think the tickets will sell.
I got tickets to this tournament a few years ago for $35 and I was a few rows behind the bench.

Do we know if they're doing a stream for these games?

 

[ZYanksRule]

Answering my own question, they are streaming it on Facebook in Latin America, so it would seem there is likely to be a stream here, but they don't seem to have been announced yet.

One more edit: I just scrolled back on their Facebook feed, and they had streams last year for this event.

Odds we see a single starter in this one?

I think we'll see the starting XI here. With Rocha, zalelem and a few others on the bench.

NYCFC coach Ronny Deila pleased with young squad's effort in Florida Cup | Pro Soccer USA

ORLANDO, Fla. — New York City FC head coach Ronny Deila sat his starters and deployed a young squad comprised mostly of academy players during his first match leading the club. Despite a 2-1 loss to Brazilian side Corinthians on Wednesday during the opening match of the Florida Cup at Orlando’s...

Deila opted to sit starters Maxi Moralez and Brazilian forward Héber during Wednesday's match, but he said they might see some playing time on Saturday during the final day of the Florida Cup.

"The players had two and a half months without training with the club, so of course it's crazy to put the older ones straight into the game, it's a big risk for injuries," Deila said when asked why he chose not to play his veterans.

In his NYCFC.com preview for the Corinthians game, he said he was basically splitting the squad in two for these games. So odds are the guys that didn't play on Wednesday will play Saturday.

No Heber or ITS listed, hopefully they don't already have injuries.

my thoughts exactly. hope it's just a decision due to match fitness.

and now maxi coming off so early. florida heat and humidity not doing us any favors...

 

[LionNYC]

Maxi subbed out in the 5'...

We'll have to see how having matches so soon after the start of preseason effects competing in CCL and MLS.

Maxi came off in the 6th minute. Hope he heals up quick.

let's hope it doesn't result in injuries....

no heber, its, and now maxi. that's worrisome.

I think the new adidas GK kits look horrendous. We've worn highlighter yellow with blue accents for both of these matches and it looks so ugly.

agree. looks terrible. i thought that the first time i saw it. keeper jerseys can be a chance to be creative, and they went and made it look like crap.


having no maxi to be the general in the midfield is already apparent. parks seems to be rushing things every time he picks up the ball. mitri seems like he's back to his "do it all myself" mentality. we have two youngins and GMS up top.. so it's not unexpected that we're having some trouble getting out of our side of the field.

again, just preseason. now is the time to shake off that rust. CCL is only a month away.
