GAME INFORMATION


Orlando City SC vs Colorado Rapids
Saturday, April 6 - 5:30 PM MT
Orlando City Stadium - Orlando, Florida

The Rapids spent the week training at DICK'S Sporting Goods Park ahead of their fifth-ever MLS meeting with Orlando City SC.


The players had three full sessions before catching a flight to Florida where they will get their final rest before Saturday's game at Orlando City Stadium. 


"We’ve had some good trainings this week," midfielder Benny Feilhaber said. "We’ve tried to focus on things we haven’t been doing correctly whether it be pure energy stand point, tactical, technical all kinds of things."


"A big thing this week we’re focusing on is the final third, just being a bit more dynamic," midfielder Dillon Serna added. "We have some quality players in the final third that can score some goals, but we have to get them the ball, get them service."


The trip will mark the Rapids second time competing at Orlando's new stadium. The two sides only prior meeting at Orlando City Stadium occurred on April 29, 2017, which saw the Rapids fall 2-0 to the Lions. 


"It’s a great stadium," Feilhaber said. "I love playing there, the fans are usually really good there. It should be a good environment for us to hopefully start turning the season around."


Hear the full interviews with Hudson, Feilhaber and Serna below as they spoke about their trip to Orlando and creating more chances in the attack.




WHAT THEY SAID


Head Coach Anthony Hudson



"Both teams will go into this game in the same boat. I think we both feel that we’ve had good performances and not good performances and I think it’s a massive game for both of us.  "


Midfielder Benny Feilhaber



"We’ve had a really good week of training, a really good week of preparation so I would expect to have a really good reaction from not only the last game but the first two games of the year where things haven’t gone right and hopefully we can get our first three points of the season."


Midfielder Dillon Serna



"I think we need to work on being a bit more dynamic in the final third and obviously being a bit more focused on the defensive side because we know all of these teams have guys up front that can hurt you. "
