Philadelphia Union drops first preseason match 1-0 to Orlando City

A Philadelphia Union attack missing Sergio Santos and Cory Burke fell 1-0 to Orlando City to open their preseason slate on Monday in Clearwater, Florida.

Jack de Vries earned the start up top with Kacper Przybylko in the only surprise in head coach Jim Curtin’s first starting XI of 2021. The 18-year-old, who logged 12 minutes in his rookie season last year, nearly gave the Union a lead when he hit woodwork and was mentioned in a number of attacks on the live game blog.

Sergio Santos is out for a couple weeks with a torn ligament in his big toe.
