At the game, officials announced that the stadium will be the site of the 2017 National Women's Soccer League Championship match in October.
The Pride spent the first season at Camping World Stadium before moving to the team's new home.
The $150 million venue opened last month and fans say it's a great stadium.
"This is hands down across all my travels around the world, the country the best venue I've ever been in for live sporting events," said Pieter Hanson.
Hanson and Sarah Nich are part of The Crown, a recognized Supporter Club for The Orlando Pride.
"We're just so excited for the Pride to be home and our new stadium and we're just so excited to be on The Wall to support them for this," said Nich.
The Wall is North America’s only full safe-standing supporters’ section.
Fans were also looking forward to seeing Brazilian superstar Marta for the first time after the forward arrived in Orlando Thursday night.
She was a substitute for the game.
"It's great soccer, it really is. The women are outstanding, very talented," said fan Steve Jacobs.
The Pride earned a 1-1 draw against the Washington Spirit.
