The Portland Thorns take on the Orlando Pride to open the 2017 NWSL Season. To find out more about the Pride as we enter a new season, I reached out to Michael Citro of The Mane Land
What is the buzz around the Pride as they enter their second season?
Obviously the biggest buzz is the Marta signing. Adding a player of that caliber, even if she’s perhaps lost a step, has fans excited about the season. The new additions in general are cause for celebration among the supporters. Ali Krieger and Alanna Kennedy should help to plug up what was a leaky defense.
