Philadelphia Union fans show police not everyone is as bad as NYCFC

The last time Orlando City hosted a soccer match, the traveling fans of New York City FC acted well... like you’d expect fans of New York City FC to act - like idiots. One stole a seat from the stadium, others were involved in a brawl that injured an Orange County Sheriff’s Deputy.

Philadelphia fans also have a bit of a reputation, so it was good to see that after the match some of the away support took the time to pose with members of the Orlando Police Department and take a photo to show that not all traveling soccer fans are complete jackasses and wannabe hooligans.
