I arrived at the stadium on Sunday afternoon glued to my phone, waiting rather impatiently for the formation to be released. What many fans had been asking for was finally a reality, the Orlando City Lions were coming out to play the Portland Timbers in a 4-2-3-1. I almost couldn’t believe it.
The fans around me were shocked. My seat mates almost couldn’t believe their eyes. I got proof, though. It happened, the diamond had taken a back seat to a formation that many had hoped the Lions would adopt as the roster got fully fit and healthy.
