Las Vegas Lights FC has yet to play a match, but is already causing a stir with some marquee preseason exhibitions lined up for spring 2018. Well, more like the end of winter 2018, but this is the desert we’re talking about, after all.
The Sin City-based USL club will host three MLS sides on consecutive Saturdays in February, the team announced Monday. The Montreal Impact will visit on Feb. 10, followed by the Vancouver Whitecaps on Feb. 17 and D.C. United on Feb. 24.
