All-Access Episode 2 DL

We're a couple days into our stay here in Tucson, Arizona but it doesn't mean we can't look back on what was accomplished by the team during Phase Two of camp last week in Bradenton, Fla. 


In Episode 2 of Preseason All-Access, we look at how the team's competition at center back between incumbents Bakary Soumare and Austin Berry and newbies Jhon Kennedy Hurtado and Patrick Ianni heated up at IMG Academy.



Then we look at the Fire youth movement that was bolstered upon the team's arrival in Bradenton with the acquisition of U.S. youth international Benji Joya.
