All games will be aired lived on YES except for the away game at Philly on April 23 which will start on a 1 hour tape delay. Though you can watch it live on Fox Sports Go.

Same thing as last year, as it so has it.

"— NYCFC will close its exhibition schedule on Saturday against Reykjavic FC. The probable lineup for the scrimmage and the opener in Chicago features Tony Taylor, Villa and Khiry Shelton up front with Tommy McNamara, Mix Diskerud and Pirlo in the midfield. At the back, Ronald Matarrita, Ethan White, Frederic Brilliant and Andoni Iraola. Josh Saunders will be in goal."

Nice and informative article here by Glen Crooks, who spent time in Florida to interview Viera and hang out with the team.

Edit: this is the same article linked by The Toe. It's got a lot of good stuff in there.

So all of the starters playing except for Lurch with Saunders getting a bone?
