You know the feeling you get fifteen minutes after you drink a Redbull ? What about the feeling you get three hours after that same Redbull? Well Orlando City’s team had both those same feelings in last night’s 2-0 loss to RBNY.
The Lions came out of the gate looking super energized for the first thirty six minutes of play the game was about even. Then the Lions gave up a goal off a corner kick. Connor Lade snuck into the box and put the ball into the back of the net. (Basically unmarked by the way.) OCSC limped into the half with their tail between the hind legs.
In the 59th minute Filipe had a unstoppable free kick to make the score 2-0. Other than that not much to talk about. Larin had Orlando’s only real chance. My final thought is the possession stat of 56% in favor of RBNY is a joke as it felt like they were the only team with ball. Orlando travels from New York to Vancouver for another away match on saturday. Hopefully the snoozy lion in the picture above stays at the Brox zoo and the real lions show up to play.
