“I felt my heart beat back a weekend’s worth of sadness.” – ‘Til Tuesday, “Coming Up Close”

Orlando City SC gave all of us a weekend’s worth of sadness with two losses and a draw between the three teams and not one single goal to cheer about. In fact, there weren’t even many shots on target that might actually lead to a goal as the Lions lost 2-0, the Pride fell 1-0, and the Young Lions played to a scoreless draw. We broke down the MLS side’s home loss to Toronto FC and picked our OCSC Man of the Match and we were split on the latter.

Paul Tenorio of The Athletic stopped by and we discussed yesterday’s big news with FC Cincinnati parting with its coach but we also talked about how the expansion side compares in its approach to Orlando City’s side in 2015. We also discussed the Lions, the job Luiz Muzzi and Ricardo Moreira are doing personnel-wise, and what the future holds in store for this team.

Dave and I talked about OCB’s draw and the Pride’s loss and how bleak things seem for fans of the club’s NWSL side. We then got into a lengthy mailbag with some great questions this week, and finished with our key match-ups and score predictions for Sunday’s match at Atlanta United.

Here’s how show No. 161 shook out:

0:16 – Orlando City once again came out second best against the Reds but it was the energy level that was disappointing.

23:24 – Paul Tenorio jumps aboard and he gives his take on several Lions who could soon be former Lions.

41:00 – OCB and the Pride have been shut out a lot already this season, the mailbag always scores, and our predictions for Orlando City at Atlanta will likely miss the mark.
