Towards the end of the 2016 campaign, FC Dallas was scrambling to adjust to live without their Magical Little Unicorn, Mauro Diaz. Now armed with the knowledge of not having their midfield maestro for at least another four months, Fernando Clavijo and the club got to work to properly restructure the roster during the offseason. The result was adding more speed on the wings and bringing in a couple of key offensive weapons in Javier Morales and Cristian Colman to reload the roster for the upcoming season.
The fans finally got to see how this newly constructed team would play out on the field on Thursday and the results were glorious.
