Orlando City won’t be moving into their soccer-specific stadium until next season, but they’ve got a pretty good temporary home, and it turned out to be the perfect venue for their first ever game. The team was able to sell 62,000 tickets to pack the newly renovated Citrus Bowl, and the crowd at their debut MLS match against New York City FC is an awesome sea of purple.
