ORLANDO, Fla. (May 31, 2018) - Orlando City SC has suspended the organized supporter groups' privileges of Atlanta United FC for the next three matches between the clubs at Orlando City Stadium. This is a result of unaddressed misconduct from members of the traveling Atlanta United supporter groups following the May 13 match at Orlando City Stadium.
On May 15, Orlando City SC shared video footage and images with Atlanta United FC of five of its fans throwing objects during the match. Atlanta United failed to respond with the names of the offenders or ask for an extension within the appropriate window of time.
Orlando City SC will revoke the organized supporter groups' privileges granted to all clubs in Major League Soccer, which include purchasing seats in a designated supporters' section with escorts to the match, entering Orlando City Stadium before general admission gates open and bringing flags or banners into the stadium.
Orlando City SC expects all fans, regardless of affiliation, to exhibit appropriate and safe conduct at Orlando City Stadium.
