@DesaiDevang should be noted Montverde is more collegw than high school

Not sure why I am replying because I don't really care, but although they do offer post grad studies the soccer team certainly appears to include high school students. Either way, it is a preseason runaround with no real significance other than for the players to get a feel for each other...

Thought they looked sort of collegiate. Big kids for high schoolers; I remember the difference (going to school in Quebec) when my high school team of mostly grade 11 and 10 students played Crescent's grade 13 kids. They shaved, we didn't. We only lost 1-0 but it was brutal.

We need to take the full three points from this one, boys.

Orlando currently beating FC Dallas 3-0 at half time. Kaka has a penalty goal and an assist.

I think Dallas has a weaker lineup out though; Orlando playing the first team.

Started the game, played the first half with mostly youth players, draftees and trialists. They had no cohesion but had never really played together before and were pretty easily overrun. Then again, personal opinion is that anytime they start Bekker in the mid, they're going to get pretty easily overrun.

Video proof....about 24 seconds in so you don't have to sit through the Borg rants for long.
