I got to two of those games. I can still hear Clint Mathis swearing up and down the field....and then kicking the ball out of the stadium and on to Lexington Avenue.

Multiple sources tell @MLSist and I that a Sporting Kansas City player has been confirmed as positive for COVID-19. Club arrived in Orlando on Sunday, tested negative upon entry, has been training. First game scheduled for this coming Sunday against Minnesota.— Sam Stejskal (@samstejskal) July 10, 2020
#MNUFC coach Adrian Heath said #Loons have had all negative #COVIDー19 tests in Orlando for #MLSisBack Tournament, adding he's aware Sporting Kansas City situation (positive test for a player, per @samstejskal).Heath said they'll wait for #MLS response on playing Sunday's game.— Andy Greder (@andygreder) July 10, 2020
#MNUFC has sent out its usual day-before-match notes to media. Still no indication that this game might be postponed.Again — playing this while waiting to see if it has spread among #SportingKC is a massive risk. This is the biggest test of MLS's caution yet. https://t.co/Pdv3zpunzI— Jeff Rueter (@jeffrueter) July 11, 2020 This game not being postponed is MLS dumb.
News: #MNUFC starting striker Luis Amarilla pulled his groin during warmups before #SportingKC match, the club said. He will be replaced by Mason Toye. #Loons were loving what Amarilla was doing in March, so this will be a big chance for Toye to push his way up depth chart.— Andy Greder (@andygreder) July 12, 2020 No Ike, no Ozzie and now no Amarilla.

Each injured at some point in Sunday’s @MLS is Back opener, Luis Amarilla and Mason Toye both participated fully in @MNUFC training in Orlando today— Jerry Zgoda (@JerryZgoda) July 15, 2020
Your @MNUFC's Adrian Heath in a video call just now said both @OzzieAlonso & Luis Amarilla trained today in Orlando & will be the ol' "game-time decision" for tomorrow's @MLS is Back game vs @realsaltlake. "If they’re both fit and 100 percent, they will play," he said.— Jerry Zgoda (@JerryZgoda) July 16, 2020
Better shape, but pretty dire and rusty. Mid range and long passes were pretty atrocious. We would stop or own attacks. Saw elsewhere that That they were not planning on Ozzie playing, this is why Chase and Metanire were staying close to home and overloading the attack. Regardless, we were toothless.
#MNUFC coach Adrian Heath said attacking midfielder Kevin Molino (hamstring) will be a game-day decision for Wednesday's game against Colorado Rapids. He was subbed out at halftime in scoreless draw against Salt Lake.— Andy Greder (@andygreder) July 21, 2020
#MNUFC coach Adrian Heath said Luis Amarilla and Mason Toye both trained Tuesday, and with Aaron Schoenfeld, all three #Loons strikers will be available for selection in Wednesday's game against Colorado Rapids.— Andy Greder (@andygreder) July 21, 2020
