Kaka becomes first player to score a goal in Orlando City's new stadium

Kaka scored the first goal at Orlando City's new stadium in a preseason victory against Saint Louis FC, a week before it hosts its first MLS game.

The 2007 Ballon d'Or winner scored a fifth-minute free kick in the 25,500-capacity Orlando City Stadium as the hosts ran out 3-1 winners against their United Soccer League opponents.

Cyle Larin then added two more before half-time to give Orlando a 3-0 lead before Saint Louis pulled back a late consolation goal.

The new stadium features 49 rainbow-coloured seats to honour the victims killed in the mass shooting at a gay-friendly nightclub last year.

Orlando host New York City in their season-opener next Sunday.
