Orlando City earned a 2-1 win over NYCFC Saturday night, offering fans the first glimpse of the Lions revamped roster.

There were two things that stood out in coach James OConnors criticisms of the team last season: The Lions attack had little to no movement, limiting options for the man with the ball, and the teams defensive mentality was weak.

It was just a friendly, but Orlando City supporters who came to Orlando City Stadium Saturday night got to see the fruits of the Lions labor during preseason training to resolve those problems.

Particularly in the first half, the player on the ball for Orlando City had options.

Movement without the ball was strong, and the players took advantage of the options there were in the box.

He’s admittedly biased, but New York City FC defender Ronald Matarrita said he believes it’s his home country of Costa Rica, not the United States or Mexico, that can lay claim to the title of the best team in Concacaf.

“Putting myself up there, putting Costa Rica up there, [the order] would be Costa Rica, Mexico, United States.

“In MLS obviously there has been growth and it has been able to close the gap on Liga MX and at this moment I believe we are at a very similar level and you’ve already seen a lot of games in these last few years where MLS teams have imposed themselves on Mexican teams.”

Inexplicably, while golf courses all over the tristate area — and around the country for that matter — are open for play, the 13 courses in the five boroughs of the city remain closed, as they’ve been since they were ordered to shut down on March 22.

Not only have city golfers been deprived of critical outdoor recreation, but the operators of the golf courses are hemorrhaging money as they struggle to maintain the expensive upkeep of the properties without the business revenue to offset the significant costs.

Giordano said he’s spending $100,000 per month to maintain the golf course with no revenue coming in and — most appallingly — no communication from City Hall.

When The Post reached out to de Blasio’s office Friday asking for an explanation as to why 98 percent of the golf courses in the country are open but New York City’s are not, one of his representatives responded with this nondescript email: “Our golf courses remain closed to protect the health and safety of New Yorkers.
