Welcome to your match thread for a Saturday night Tropic Thunder matchup between Orlando City (4-4-4, 16 points) and the team’s Publix Enemies, Inter Miami CF (5-7-0, 15 points), at DRV PNK Stadium (7:30 p.m., MLS Season Pass on Apple TV+). It’s the first of two scheduled regular-season meetings between the in-state and Eastern Conference rivals in 2023, with the Herons scheduled to make the return trip north on the Florida Turnpike on Sept. 24.

Here’s what you need to know ahead of the match.

History

Orlando City is 4-3-2 in this fledgling series (but only 1-3-0 on the road) in the regular season and 4-3-3 in all competitions. The most recent meeting took place at DRV PNK Stadium and saw the only scoreline in the series so far in which the winner had more than a one-goal margin, as Inter Miami won, 4-1, on Oct. 5, 2022. Leonardo Campana scored in the game’s first minute and Orlando City never settled in. Gonzalo Higuain added two goals — one from the spot — and Ariel Lassiter also scored before Ercan Kara pulled one back to spoil the shutout.

The first regular-season meeting of 2022 resulted in a 1-0 Orlando City win at Exploria Stadium on July 9 as a stoppage-time own goal by Damion Lowe was the difference between the Lions earning just one point or all three. The ball was sent into the box by Jake Mulraney.

The teams also met at Exploria Stadium on May 25, 2022 in U.S. Open Cup action, with the two sides needing extra time after a scoreless 90 minutes. In extra time, Miami got a goal from Jean Mota against the run of play, but Facundo Torres quickly equalized for Orlando. The match ended 1-1 and Orlando won the ensuing penalty shootout, 4-2. Bryce Duke was denied by Mason Stajduhar and DeAndre Yedlin missed the net during the spot kicks, while all four Orlando shooters scored.

The intrastate rivals played to a scoreless draw in Orlando on Aug. 27, 2021. Tesho Akindele missed a penalty in the match, but the Lions had several other good opportunities to score (but didn’t) in a wasteful performance. Orlando and Miami battled to a 1-1 draw at Exploria Stadium on Aug. 4, 2021. Antonio Carlos scored in first-half stoppage time but was knocked into concussion protocol on the play by Kelvin Leerdam. Kieran Gibbs equalized in the 66th minute on a header in front of a less-than-attentive Ruan. Akindele had a goal called back after video review for being offside and the teams split the points. Earlier in the season, the Lions came from behind in Fort Lauderdale to win 2-1 on a pair of brilliant goals by Chris Mueller and Nani on June 25, 2021.

In the final meeting of 2020, the Lions saw their 12-match unbeaten streak end on Oct. 24 in a 2-1 road loss in Fort Lauderdale. Miami defender Leandro Gonzalez Pirez’s header in the 89th minute was the difference after a Daryl Dike goal and an own goal off Robin Jansson saw the game tied up at halftime. The teams met in Orlando on Sept. 12 of 2020 with Orlando battling to a 2-1 win on Mauricio Pereyra’s goal. The Lions had taken the lead on an own goal by Andres Reyes. Former Lion Brek Shea tied things up in the 65th, before Pereyra answered with a nice goal off the left post in the 69th minute.

The first meeting in Fort Lauderdale opened Phase 1 of Major League Soccer’s return to regular-season play after the MLS is Back Tournament. That one was an uncharacteristically sloppy match for the Lions, who fell 3-2 in Inter Miami’s first-ever home match. It was Miami’s first franchise win after an 0-5-0 start. Orlando trailed by more than one goal for the first time all season in that game. Dike and Nani provided the offense for Orlando but Julian Carranza’s brace and Rodolfo Pizarro’s insurance goal were enough to lift the Herons.

The first Tropic Thunder match went Orlando City’s way, with Nani scoring late to lift the Lions to a 2-1 win over the upstarts from South Florida in the opening match of the MLS is Back Tournament. Despite it being a tournament match, it was also a league game. Juan Agudelo opened the scoring for the Herons, but Mueller equalized, setting the stage for Nani’s 97th-minute winner.

Overview

The Lions are coming off back-to-back draws, including a plodding 1-1 effort Wednesday night at home against New York City FC. Orlando City has gone four straight matches (in all competitions) without a win (0-2-2). The Lions are also on a poor run of road form, going 0-2-1 in their last three games away from Exploria Stadium. Still, the club is a respectable 2-1-2 on the road in 2023.

Inter Miami is coming off a 2-1 loss in Nashville on Saturday. The Herons have been a streaky team, starting the season with consecutive wins over Montreal and Philadelphia and then losing their next six games in a row before beating Columbus, Atlanta, and New England in the runup to the trip to Nashville. Location has been critical for Miami, as the club is 4-2-0 at home this season vs. 1-5-0 on the road.

It’s a rivalry game, so anything can happen. History suggests it’ll be tight.

The Lions will need to deal with Miami’s duo of Campana and former Atlanta United star Josef Martinez. So far this season, Martinez leads the club in goals (3), just ahead of Campana (2), but the South Floridians have been taking a goals-by-committee approach in 2023, with 10 different players finding the net in league play. Compare that to just five different Orlando City scorers this season.

Miami has been better on transition opportunities but that doesn’t mean Inter doesn’t want the ball. Orlando may be better served to let the hosts have more of the possession and make them string together long sequences to get scoring chances.

“We always have the responsibility to win. Miami is a team that is also trying to find their best form at this point of the season, like many others, including us,” Orlando City Head Coach Oscar Pareja said. “They are players that we recognize, some of them young, the other ones have more experience in the league. It’s very level the league in that aspect, but we recognize in the details what their strengths and their weaknesses are. At this point, we’re trying to find our best form.”

The Lions will be without Luca Petrasso (thigh), and young defenders Michael Halliday and Thomas Williams, who are both on international duty with the United States U-20 team. Miami will not have Gregore (Lisfranc), Jean Mota (knee), or Rodolfo Pizarro (hamstring), while Edison Azcona (Dominican Republic) and David Ruiz (Honduras) are also on duty in the U-20 World Cup. In addition, the Herons list Sergii Kryvtsov (calf) and Robbie Robinson (calf) as questionable.

Orlando City vs. New York City FC: Player Grades and Man of the Match

How did your favorite Lions perform in Orlando City’s 2-1 loss to NYCFC?

Orlando City gave up two late goals to drop all three points in a 2-1 home loss against New York City FC. The Lions had plenty of chances to put the game away, but once again were unable to score multiple goals at home. Despite having the better of the match for the first 87 minutes, this team continues to allow teams to stick around and steal points late. Let’s take a look at the individual performances in this extremely disappointing match.

Starters

GK, Pedro Gallese, 6 — I feel bad for Gallese. He made two saves, including his 500th save as Orlando City’s keeper, but gave up two goals that were very difficult to stop. The first was the own goal at point blank range just seconds after his outstanding save against former Lion Andres Perea. There was nothing he could have done on that. The second was a two-on-one attack in stoppage time, when he came out to cut down the angle, but it was a lost cause. As for the first part of the match, it was slow. He didn’t even make his first save until the 53rd minute. Gallese touched the ball 25 times, completing 56.3% of his 16 passes, though he did not connect on any of his seven long balls. Defensively, he made one tackle, and two clearances.

D, David Brekalo, 7 — With the return of Jansson, Brekalo resumed his left back duties. He was active in the attack early. He sent a header on target off of a corner in 30th minute but didn’t put enough on it. He headed another corner in 35th minute, but it was too high and off target. The third time was the charm though, as he once again headed a corner kick. This time, he sent the ball to Jansson for the goal to earn an assist. Brekalo had 55 touches, completing 91.3% of his 46 passes, including one key pass and two of his four long balls. Offensively, he had one shot on target. Defensively, he had one tackle, one clearance, and two interceptions. He wasn’t at fault for either of NYCFC’s goals.

D, Robin Jansson, 7.5 (MotM) — Jansson scored his first goal of the season and perhaps his best goal for the Lions. Brekalo headed the corner kick from Ojeda over to Jansson, who chested it down and then left-footed it into the back of the net. It was a good performance from the captain, but the goal is what put him over the top for Man of the Match. Jansson had 42 touches, completing 88.2% of his 34 passes and two of his five long balls. Offensively, he had the one shot on target for the goal. Defensively he had two clearances, one interception, one blocked shot, and he suffered one foul. Most importantly, he wasn’t culpable on either of NYCFC’s goals either.

D, Rodrigo Schlegel, 5.5 — Until the final minutes of the match, Schlegel wasn’t doing too badly. He had 49 touches, completing 87.5% of his 40 passes, and one of his five long balls. Offensively, he had two shots, with one on target, though he failed to score for Orlando City. Defensively he had one tackle, two clearances, one blocked shot, and a foul. While he didn’t have a goal contribution for the Lions he did kick the ball off of Kyle Smith and into the net to give NYCFC the equalizer in the 87th minute. Smith is credited with the own goal, but Schlegel gets the own assist.

D, Alex Freeman, 7 — Freeman was dangerous in this match. His speed, skill, and size present problems for defenses and that was the case again in this match. Even though he didn’t get a goal contribution, he did create opportunities for both himself and his teammates. His efforts created four first-half corner kicks. He also stole the ball in the 58th minute, made a run up the field — including a give-and-go with Marco Pasalic — and got into the box to receive the ball back after continuing his run, but hhe sent his shot high. Freeman had 64 touches, completing 80.6% of his 36 passes, two crosses, and one of his three long balls. Offensively, he had four shots, with one on target, and two dribbles. Defensively, he logged three tackles, three clearances, three interceptions, and two fouls committed.

MF, Ivan Angulo, 6 — Angulo was better in this match. He was not great, as he still failed to earn a goal contribution, but neither was he the place where the attack went to die. He provided pressure on the defense and almost took the ball away from the keeper early on. Angulo had 31 touches, completing 82.6% of his 23 passes, and made three key passes. Offensively, he had one off-target shot, suffered two fouls, and was only dispossessed once. Defensively, he recorded two interceptions. His grade comes as much from what he didn’t do — good and bad — as for what he did do. He came off for Kyle Smith in the 74th minute.

MF, Cesar Araujo, 6 — This was a typical night for Araujo. He did mostly well in the defensive midfield, sniffing out attacks and winning the ball back. The one time he couldn’t, he committed a professional foul in the 61st minute that earned him a yellow card after Jansson was caught upfield. Araujo had 60 touches, completing 89.6% of his 48 passes, including two key passes and two of his five long balls. Offensively, he had one shot that was off target. Defensively, he logged one clearance, two interceptions, and one blocked shot. He committed the aforementioned foul, though he also suffered three fouls. Like almost everyone else, he was caught up the field on NYCFC’s second goal, and there wasn’t anything he could have done.

MF, Eduard Atuesta, 6 —  Atuesta was active, as usual, in this match. Like some of his teammates, he was generally pretty good, but it was his ball into the box that was intercepted and sprung NYCFC’s counterattack on the second goal. Atuesta had a team-high 82 touches, completing 86.6% of his 67 passes, including five key passes, three crosses, and five of his 10 long balls. Offensively, he attempted two shots with neither on target, one dribble, and two fouls committed. Defensively, he logged one tackle, and suffered two fouls.

MF, Marco Pasalic, 6.5 — Much like Martin Ojeda, Pasalic was not as clinical as he usually is. He placed an excellent through ball to Luis Muriel in the 20th minute, but Muriel’s shot was stopped. He had several shots that were blocked out for corner kicks. Pasalic had 40 touches, completing 90.5% of his 21 passes, including three key passes, one cross, and one of his two long balls. Offensively, he had a team-high six shots with one on target, completed two dribbles, and suffered one foul. Defensively, he notched one interception. He came off in the 74th minute for Dagur Dan Thorhallsson.

F, Martin Ojeda, 6.5 — It was an “almost” night for Ojeda. He earned a secondary assist on Jansson’s goal after delivering the corner kick to Brekalo to bring his season total to 10 assists and his goal contribution streak to eight matches. However, he should have been more clinical. Case in point: he missed a golden opportunity in the 47th minute on an NYCFC turnover with only the keeper to beat, but he sent the shot wide left. All of his shots were either off target or right at Matt Freese. Ojeda had 45 touches, completing 81.5% of his 27 passes, including four crosses and one of his two long balls. Offensively, he fired five shots with only one on target, completed one dribble, and committed one foul. Defensively, he had one interception, and suffered one foul. Ojeda came off in the 84th minute for Nico Rodriguez.

F, Luis Muriel, 5.5 — It was another uninspiring match from Muriel. The forward certainly put in the effort early on, pressing the defense and Matt Freese, but he was never able to make it pay off. He had a golden opportunity in the 20th minute, but he couldn’t beat the keeper. Muriel finished with just 19 touches, completing 90% of his 10 passes, including one key pass, one long ball, and two crosses. Offensively, he attempted two shots, which were both on target, but he could not find the back of the net. He committed one foul and drew none. Muriel came off in the 64th minute for Ramiro Enrique.

Substitutes

F, Ramiro Enrique (64’), 5.5 — Enrique came on in the 64th minute for Muriel, touching the ball seven times and completing 40% of his five passes. He took one shot from a great spot that was not on target, and won three aerial balls. Despite being on the pitch for over 30 minutes, he didn’t do much.

MF, Dagur Dan Thorhallsson (74’), 5 — Thorhallsson came on in the 74th minute for Pasalic as the Lions looked to hang onto their 1-0 lead. Unfortunately, he was unable to help in that regard. He finished with 13 touches, completing all of his nine passes, including one key pass. Defensively, he logged one interception and one clearance, but sadly he was unable to make the most important tackle on the night. He was the last man with a chance to stop the breakaway on NYCFC’s second goal, but he swung and missed on his desperate attempt to make the tackle.

MF, Kyle Smith (74’), 5 — Smith came on for Angulo in the 74th minute in a defensive change. Sadly he was in the wrong place at the wrong time as he and Schlegel were both trying to clear the ball away from goal when Schlegel kicked it off of Smith for NYCFC’s equalizer. Smith was credited with the own goal, although he didn’t know much about it. He touched the ball 12 times, completing all of his eight passes, including one cross. Defensively, he added a clearance.

MF, Nico Rodriguez (84’), N/A — Rodriguez was a late replacement for Ojeda as the Lions looked to see out the game. He earned a foul less than a minute after entering the match to set up a free kick for Orlando, though it amounted to nothing. He touched the ball 15 times, completing 75% of his eight passes, and made one key pass. Offensively, he had one dribble and suffered two fouls. His biggest contribution was a negative one late in the game, as he played a corner kick so quickly that most of his teammates weren’t ready. Thorhallsson was still walking back into his deep defensive position and the two center backs hadn’t even arrived in the box yet. So when Rodriguez played the corner quickly short to Atuesta, it threw off the entire team and allowed NYCFC to break with numbers for the winner.

Orlando City vs. New York City FC: Five Takeaways

Here’s what we learned from Orlando City’s 2-1 loss against NYCFC.

Published

on

I have never actually been punched in the gut, but I am sure that it does not feel much worse than what it felt like to watch Orlando City capitulate once again in the final minutes of a game, going from a 1-0 lead to a 2-1 defeat in the final minutes of Wednesday’ night’s game. The Lions had plenty of chances to salt the game away in the first 85 minutes but they could not tally more than one goal, and then the combination of bad luck on one play and bad execution on a play shortly thereafter gave New York City FC a smash-and-grab win.

Here are my five takeaways from another disappointing match at home.

Wrong Place, Wrong Time

Own goals are brutal whenever they happen, but they are especially tough when they follow an incredible save by the goalkeeper but still end up in the back of the net. Pedro Gallese made a save at full stretch, denying former Lion Andrés Perea from scoring a late equalizer with a header, but then Rodrigo Schlegel tried to clear the rebound from danger but hit his clearance right off of Kyle Smith and into the Orlando City net. Schlegel did well to react quickly after Gallese made a fantastic save, but he did not have a chance to look around before trying to bomb the ball out of the zone and just suffered an incredible stroke of bad luck by hitting Smith, who was also going for a clearance, and watching the ball carom right into the net. At that moment, it felt like karma for all the missed shots by the Orlando City offense and that it would be another dropped two points from a winning position, but sadly it would become three dropped points just moments later.

For the Love Of Everything That Is Good, Please Ban Short Corners

I understand that teams want to have a lot of different looks that they could go to on set plays, but I would like the Lions to remove short corners from their bag, as they say, and not go with the short corner routine again. Ever. Kind of like how the guys in the movie Armageddon didn’t want to pay taxes again. Ever. Nico Rodriguez played a quick ball to Eduard Atuesta, trying to catch NYCFC off guard, but the team that was really caught off guard was Orlando City, as Dagur Dan Thórhallsson, the player assigned to be the last man back on defense during a corner kick, had his back to the ball and did not even know the play had started. Many of the other Lions were also caught flat footed while Atuesta tried to find a teammate to pass the ball to. Atuesta eventually played a poor ball into the middle — one of his few poor passes on the night — and NYCFC was able to break out on the counter with only Thórhallsson to beat. The Icelandic midfielder sprinted back at full speed, but because the play had started to so quickly, he was not deep enough to be in a position to slow down the counterattack. Alonso Martínez was able to get by him and finish the breakaway and, for all intents and purposes, the game.

Wasteful Offense

Orlando City took 25 shots on Wednesday night but was only able to put seven shots on goal. Many of the shots the Lions did put on goal did not really trouble goalkeeper Matt Freese. There were opportunities galore for the Lions to get multiple goals, with all three of the Designated Players failing to score on excellent opportunities, César Araújo hitting a free kick straight into a wall from a dangerous location, Alex Freeman not being able to get his feet sorted out to really uncork a threatening shot, and Ramiro Enrique putting his one shot wide of the goal from about nine yards out on the right side. The shots that were on goal were not well hit, and the balls that were well struck went wide, over, or right into a defender — in particular the last one with the Pigeons blocking nine shots on the night. The offense was simply not good enough, again, and the Lions paid for not being able to put multiple goals in the net.

The Only Offense Came From The Defense

Orlando City’s offensive players could not find their form but almost got bailed out by an unlikely source, as the one goal the team scored came from from a header by David Brekalo off of a Martín Ojeda corner that went right to Robin Jansson. The Beefy Swede looked like he had been playing striker for years by using his shoulder to knock the ball down and then volleying it low, hard, and into the corner — a place where all of the other Orlando City players were apparently unable to shoot any of their shots. This goal exemplified why many analysts, yours truly included, think that all corner kicks should be played directly into the box. Brekalo and Jansson got themselves into good positions and made a play, and when a play is made from close range, good things often happen, and purple smoke goes off and the crowd goes wild.

Tired Legs And a Barren Bench Are a Bad Combination

Óscar Pareja started eight players who had started the previous game against CF Montréal four days prior. When he went to the bench, he brought on players who had started that game (Enrique) or who had also come in off the bench in that game (Rodriguez, Smith, and Thórhallsson). Orlando City seemed the more dangerous team for most of the game, but it was not a particularly well-played game, with two teams that looked like they had just played days before and neither team sharp offensively. The Lions created more opportunities but were not sharp, and NYCFC rarely threatened for most of the game.

Pareja went with his trusted group of substitutes to try to protect a 1-0 lead, once again deciding to only use four of his five possible changes (this was the fifth straight game in which he did not use all of his allowed substitutions), and the lack of fresh MLS-quality legs was apparent in the final minutes, especially after the team fell behind. Rodriguez looked lively, but Enrique, Smith, and Thórhallsson contributed little, and the players who had been on the field all game had little left in the tank. Orlando City needs Joran Gerbet and Duncan McGuire to return from injury and needs to make use of the transfer window that opens next week, because the Lions cannot keep running out the same players over and over and expect the results to be different.


Those are my takeaways from Orlando City’s disappointing 2-1 defeat against NYCFC. The Lions had a deserved lead but could not find what would likely have been a back-breaking second goal and paid for it in the end. The team will need to shake this off quickly because the Lions travel to New England on Saturday. But after that performance against NYCFC, maybe it is better that they will be on the road for their next game.

Orlando City falls apart at home, Orlando Pride players in action abroad, Charlotte will host 2026 MLS All-Star Game, and more.

Sometimes the Cardiac Cats are fun to watch, and other times they really do just stomp your heart into pieces. We’re unfortunately in the aftermath of the latter after Orlando City’s rough defeat last night. The good news is that the Lions can’t lose today as well. Let’s jump right into today’s links.

Orlando City Beaten by New York City FC

The Lions’ summer struggles continued with a disappointing 2-1 loss at home to New York City FC. Robin Jansson scored his first goal of the season, but Orlando collapsed late at home yet again, suffering from an own goal and a winner from Alonso Martinez in stoppage time. Orlando City is now winless in its past four games and has not won at home since May 24. There’s not much time to shake off this loss, as the Lions are back in action on Saturday for a tough road match against the New England Revolution.

Keeping Up With the Pride Players Abroad

Marta came off the bench and provided a pair of assists in Brazil’s dominant 6-0 win over Bolivia in the Copa America Femenina’s group stage. Kerolin had a hat trick and the result keeps Brazil at the top of its group for the time being. The Brazilians will be back in action on Tuesday to face Paraguay.

The CAF Women’s Africa Cup of Nations quarterfinals kick off on Friday with a great matchup between Zambia and Nigeria. Orlando Pride forward Barbra Banda and Racheal Kundananji have each scored three goals this tournament and both were named to the Best XI of the group stage. Pride goalkeeper Anna Moorhouse likely won’t play, but England takes on Sweden today in the Women’s European Championship quarterfinals.

Charlotte Will Host 2026 MLS All-Star Game

MLS announced that Charlotte will serve as the host of the 2026 MLS All-Star Game, the 30th in the league’s history. Charlotte FC joined the league in 2022 and this will be the first time the event is held in Charlotte. It’s always nice to see a smaller market receive its day in the sun, and Charlotte has really embraced soccer over the years. But if Sir Minty doesn’t take part in the skills challenge next year, then what are we even doing?

D.C. United Hires Rene Weiler

Rene Weiler is officially the next head coach of D.C. United and will take over once he receives a U.S. work permit. The 51-year-old brings plenty of European experience to the nation’s capital and won the Swiss Cup with Servette FC last year. He replaces Troy Lesesne, who was fired by the club after its exit from the U.S. Open Cup earlier this month. It’s a new era for one of the league’s older clubs, and it will be interesting to see how aggressive D.C. will be to bring in talent during the upcoming transfer window.

Free Kicks

  • Argentine midfielder Rodrigo De Paul has reportedly agreed to terms with Inter Miami and could be with the club in time for the Leagues Cup. He also reportedly won’t need to take up a Designated Player spot this year, because of course.

That’s all I have for you this time around, Mane Landers. Stay hydrated and have a great Thursday!
