On a night when the merch of the match was a shirt showing a picture of Orlando City legend Kaká in the midst of his iconic post-goal celebration, the current iteration of the Lions celebrated five times themselves after putting goals into the net and trounced the squad from our nation’s capital, 5-0.

Thankfully, the fans in The Wall did not shoot off all of their flares and fireworks on Independence Day, as they needed them all night long in Inter&Co Stadium on Saturday night. Nine different Lions had goal contributions, and the team kept a clean sheet. Games like these are the fun ones to evaluate and grade.

I have my purple pen out, and I am ready to issue those grades, so here we go. Let’s take a look at how Orlando City’s players rated individually in their Eastern Conference matchup.

Starters

GK, Pedro Gallese, 6 — It was a mostly quiet night for the Peruvian goalkeeper, especially after a red card was issued to D.C. United’s Lucas Bartlett in first-half stoppage time. Pedro recorded one save on United’s only shot on target and completed eight of his 12 pass attempts, but really was not called upon for very much after some initial action early in the match. Still, a clean sheet is a clean sheet, and he will be happy to have contributed the fifth shutout of the season for the Orlando City defense.

D, Kyle Smith, 6 — Kyle started for the second consecutive match on the left side of the defense and I thought he performed well on the night. He brings a different look to both the offense and the defense than when Rafael Santos is on the field, and on Saturday night I thought he had a good partnership with the defensive back line and also with the offense. He completed 44 passes at an 89.8% clip, and got two shots off as well, though neither were on frame. Defensively, he contributed two tackles, an interception, and three clearances before making way for Alex Freeman in the 82nd minute.

D, Robin Jansson, 9 (MotM) — I toyed with going even higher for Robin, as what more can you do as a central defender than be the captain, contribute to a clean sheet, score a goal, complete 97.3% of your passes, save a ball off the line, and basically smother a former Premier League starting striker in Christian Benteke? Jansson recorded a tackle, an interception, a blocked shot, and three clearances. His header was too powerful for Tyler Miller to stop on Orlando’s second goal, providing the Lions some breathing room early in the match, and he nearly scored a second goal in the 73rd minute off Miller’s fantastic save of Rodrigo Schlegel’s header, but the defender couldn’t make good contact with the ball while it was in the air. He helped break D.C.’s pressure with two successful dribbles, too. The only knock on Jansson was that he did not play the full 90 minutes, but when you sub out when your team is leading 4-0, is that a knock, really? The game was well in hand when he subbed off for the returning David Brekalo, and I believe the Beefy Swede was the top reason why the Lions were dominating the game, so for me he was the Man of the Match.

D, Rodrigo Schlegel, 8 — While the Argentinean defender’s night was a little quieter than that of his partner in central defense, he still put in an excellent shift and definitely contributed to the clean sheet. Rodrigo went the full 90 minutes, leading the team with four clearances in addition to an interception and a blocked shot. He completed 92.9% of his passes, including four of his six long balls, while nearly tucking away a header that was headed, literally, for the upper corner before a fine save by Miller kept it out. He also played a major role in keeping the aforementioned Benteke off the score sheet, something many teams have not been able to do this season, with a team-high four aerials won. His goal early was well taken, even if it didn’t count because he was well offside.

D, Dagur Dan Thorhallsson, 7.5 — Dagur Dan got Orlando City going early in the match, intercepting a pass, smoking down the right side, staying on his feet despite a major shoulder bump from Christopher McVey, and then stopping on a dime to cut the ball back and play a perfect pass to Martín Ojeda for the opening goal. That was just one of 46 completed passes for the Icelandic right back on the night at a 97.9% completion rate, with three of those passes leading directly to an Orlando City shot. He also chipped in a clearance and two dribbles. Thorhallsson went the full 90, and he was still making runs up and down the field late in the game, even with the Lions clearly having the game in hand. When Smith subbed out, Thorhallsson switched over to the left side of the field and did not show any issues at all with playing in an unusual position, and he helped close out the final few minutes to earn the Lions their clean sheet.

MF, César Araujo, 6 — The Uruguayan defensive midfielder had a solid game, playing his usual destroyer role in the middle of the field and helped start the offense out of the back. As he always does, César drew a few fouls (2) and completed most (90.9%) of his passes, and I was somewhat surprised it was him who made way for Luis Muriel in the 58th minute, though it was likely to protect him from yellow card accumulation. In another surprise move, it was Araujo who attempted to score off a free kick when the Lions had a golden opportunity to score from just outside the box in first-half stoppage time. His effort, while hit very hard, cannoned off the wall and nothing came of that opportunity. It was one of his two shots on the night — both off target. He added a clearance on the defensive end. It was a strong, but quiet, game for César.

MF, Wilder Cartagena, 8.5 — I thought Wilder was excellent on Saturday night, as he led the team in passes completed (77), shots (4), and shots on target (3), and was also second on the team in tackles (3). The Peruvian midfielder also had an assist on two key passes, as he took a pass from Facundo Torres and played a perfect ball right onto Jansson’s head to put the Lions up 2-0. Cartagena also played the ball over the top that led to the red card foul by Bartlett on Iván Angulo, a wonderfully weighted ball in just the right spot that could well have been his second assist had there not been a foul. It was one of nine attempted long balls by the Peruvian and he completed all nine. After Araujo subbed out, Wilder also held down the center of the park for the rest of the game, recording one clearance and putting in an excellent shift on a very hot night in Orlando.

MF, Facundo Torres, 8.5 — I feel like the Facu we loved during his first two years has returned, and Saturday night’s match was emblematic of everything he is capable of doing on the field. The Uruguayan winger had five key passes, two secondary assists, and one goal (with his right foot!), and I think he should have also created two penalty kicks with shots that looked very much like they hit arms that were in places that should have led to a handball call. Neither was called, because…Orlando City. Back to Facu though, he now has four goals in his last five matches and is creating goal-scoring opportunities all over the field for his teammates. In addition, he added three tackles and an interception defensively. He was outstanding on Saturday, and he was definitely in contention for my Man of the Match.

MF, Iván Angulo, 8 — On the other side of the field from Facu was Iván Angulo, and his performance about as impressive. He scored his third goal of the season on a looked-intentional-but-perhaps-was-slightly-unintentional-but-it-worked-out-so-we’ll-call-it-intentional give and go with Martín Ojeda (though officially Ojeda did not get the assist as it came off a defender before Angulo shot it). It was his run that drew the DOGSO (denial of a goal scoring opportunity) foul that reduced D.C. United to 10 men late in the first half and, for all intents and purposes, ensured that Orlando City would win the match. Angulo also played the through ball to Duncan McGuire that led to Facu’s goal, and had that ball come back into the middle, he was in perfect position to tap it in for a goal as well. The Colombian also led the team in tackles, with four, and completed 53 passes, third on the team, at an 84.1% rate, with three of those passes leading directly to a shot. With D.C. United down a man, it was often Angulo who stretched the defense to the limit on the left side of the field; he received 21 passes from 10 yards or more away in the attacking half of the field on Saturday night, tied for third most by any player in a MLS game in 2024. One thing he could have done better was get his crosses past the first defender, as he went 0-for-2 on attempted crosses though he did win a couple of corners out of them.

MF, Martín Ojeda, 8 — Ojeda’s cannon shot opened the scoring as he timed his run perfectly to find a huge swath of space near the top of the 18 and then absolutely smashed the cross from Thorhallsson past three defenders and the goalkeeper to put the Lions on the board. He now has two goals and one assist in the last three games, and it seems like perhaps the South American trio of he, Torres, and Angulo are starting to gel as the attacking midfield group. He would have scored a second goal on a brilliant shot later but had strayed well offside on the play. As he nearly always does, Ojeda led the team in crosses (14) and completed half of them (7), part of an overall passing completion percentage of 93.8%. He was also second on the team with four key passes and added a tackle, before making way for Nico Lodeiro in the 78th minute.

F, Duncan McGuire, 6 — The effort was definitely there for Duncan during this game, and even though he did not score a goal himself, he did contribute a wonderful assist on a play he could have tried to take himself, but instead made a great pass across the box for Torres to run onto to and deposit into the back of the net. On a similar play a few minutes before, he had tried to take it himself and his timing was off and he ended up dribbling it out of bounds, but he got a second chance and he did not waste it, contributing to making the score 4-0 and effectively ending the game. He put one of his three shots on target, a flicked effort at the near post on a corner. I was unable to attend the game in person so I was watching on the AppleTV+ feed, and Duncan also led the team in getting caught on camera yelling “pass me the (inappropriate) ball” after making another run that went unrewarded, which meant he also led the team in comedic output. He only had 23 touches and only completed eight passes at a 66.7% rate, but on the whole I thought he was more positive than negative before he subbed out for Ramiro Enrique in the 77th minute.

Substitutes

MF, Luis Muriel (58′), 5 — It was a subdued performance from Muriel off the bench Saturday, as for the first time this season he did not even get a shot off, and the only real energy I saw from him was when he got into Torres’ selfie celebration. He completed 16 passes at a 94.1% rate, and he had a nutmeg while possessing the ball in the defensive end, adding a key pass and two dribbles. But on the whole, it was a rather pedestrian performance in a game where I thought he could have contributed more going against a hot and tired defense playing down a man.

F, Ramiro Enrique (75′), 6.5 — A late game sub, Ramiro made his presence felt with his first goal of the season on a glancing header in the 85th minute off a headed ball from fellow sub Alex Freeman. He provided his usual energy and hustle off the bench, and completed all five of his passes for a perfect 100% completion rate.

MF, Nico Lodeiro (77′), 6.5 — Nico only played 13 minutes plus stoppage time, but he managed to complete 19 passes (at a 90.5% rate) and have 32 touches of the ball, so he definitely came into the game like a firework. (It’s still close enough to Independence Day for this reference to work, right? Don’t answer that.) The Uruguayan also played the corner kick that Alex Freeman headed across for Enrique’s goal, made two tackles and had one interception, so I felt that even in a short performance he did earn a grade, and a good one, with how he contributed to the final portion of the game.

D, David Brekalo, (77’), N/A — The Slovenian subbed in at the same time as Lodeiro, but since he subbed in for Jansson, and D.C. United barely had the ball while he was on, I did not think there was enough there for him to earn a grade. Brekalo completed all 11 of his passes, including two long balls, but aside from that he did not have any other involvement in the game.

D, Alex Freeman (82′), 6.5 — The final Orlando City substitution of the game, Freeman came on for Smith, playing right back, which pushed Thorhallsson to the left side. In his short time on the field, he completed all nine of his passes, including a perfect flicked header across the box for his first career MLS assist. On the play, he made a run from the center of the box to beat a D.C. United defender to Lodeiro’s corner kick, sending across to Enrique, who nodded it home. This was Freeman’s longest appearance of his young MLS career, and I thought he looked very comfortable on the field.

That’s how I saw the individual performances on Saturday night. What did you think? Be sure to let us know in the comments and vote in the poll below for your Orlando City Man of the Match.

Happy Tuesday, everyone. It was a great weekend for Orlando’s soccer teams, but the impending landfall of Hurricane Milton has thrown a bit of a wrench in my week over here in Tampa. Regardless, the soccer news doesn’t stop, and that means we have plenty to talk about this morning. Without any further ado, let’s get into today’s links.

Lions Earn Weekly Recognition

Orlando City picked up a great road win over FC Cincinnati on Saturday, and the Lions were represented in the MLS Team of the Matchday as a result. Ramiro Enrique gets the starting nod as the left winger, Oscar Pareja is the coach of the side, and Ivan Angulo made the bench. Enrique was the Lions’ Man of the Match, as he recorded two goals and an assist to continue his excellent scoring form. Angulo recorded a goal and an assist in a performance that was made more impressive given he was subbed out at halftime in OCSC’s 2-1 victory over the Philadelphia Union. Pareja masterminded the whole affair, and it’s great to see the Lions receive some recognition. Keep it up!

MLS Stock Watch

Decision Day is almost upon us, which means now is a good time to check in on which teams are heading in the right direction and which are not. Orlando City is building momentum ahead of the playoffs and will secure fourth place in the Eastern Conference with a Decision Day victory. Inter Miami also fits the bill of being a team on the up, as it will break the league’s points record if it beats the New England Revolution in the final game of the season. Despite an inconsistent season, D.C. United only needs a point against Charlotte FC on Decision Day to clinch a playoff place. As for New England, Nashville SC, Austin FC, Toronto FC, and FC Dallas, all five have been eliminated from postseason contention.

MLS Award Nominees Revealed

MLS has released the nominees for its 2024 Year-End Awards, and there are several Lions in the running to win recognition. Martin Ojeda and Facundo Torres are Orlando’s nominees for MVP, Oscar Pareja is in the mix for Coach of the Year, Pedro Gallese is up for Goalkeeper of the Year, Robin Jansson and Dagur Dan Thorhallson are in contention for Defender of the Year, and Felipe is eligible to win and award for his work in the community. Teams can nominate up to two players for certain awards, so the names were put forward by the club itself. Best of luck to all the nominees!

U.S. Soccer Announces Staffing Additions

The United States Men’s National Team has made five additional hires to Mauricio Pochettino’s staff, many of whom have worked with the new head coach at some point during his career. Jesus Perez will be the first assistant coach, Miguel D’Agostino will also be an assistant coach, and Antonio Jimenez will be the goalkeepers coach. Sebastian Pochettino will join as a sports scientist after working with his father at several of his club jobs. Silvia Tuya Viñasis joins as the team’s strength and conditioning coach, and is the only member of the staff who has not worked with Pochettino previously.

Orlando City went on the road Saturday and came away with a huge 3-1 win over FC Cincinnati. The three points secured a top-five spot in the Eastern Conference playoffs, placing the Lions in a good position to get through the first round. It was a surprising result for the Lions, defeating a top-three team in the conference for the first time this season.

It was a strong performance by the squad, but some players were better than others. Let’s take a look at how the Lions performed individually in this win and issue some grades.

Starters

GK, Pedro Gallese, 6 — This wasn’t the hardest game for Gallese, despite the number of shots he faced. FC Cincinnati put six shots on target, scoring once from long range. Gallese made five saves on the night, but most were right at him. However, he did make a nice stop late in the game, diving to his right and keeping the two-goal lead. In addition to his shot-stopping, Gallese completed 72% of his 25 passes, including eight of his 15 long balls.

D, Rafael Santos, 6.5 — Santos’ 66 touches were second on the team in this game and he completed 82.1% of his team-high 56 passes, including three of seven long balls. Other than his passing, Santos wasn’t involved much offensively but had a team-high four tackles. He also added a clearance in a strong performance by the left back.

D, Robin Jansson, 6.5 — As you might expect from the captain, Jansson was a rock on the back line for the Lions. His 65 touches were third most on the team and he completed 85.2% of his 54 passes, including eight of his 14 long balls. The center back stood strong defensively with two interceptions and a team-high seven clearances.

D, Rodrigo Schlegel, 6.5 — Schlegel’s been a liability at times this year, but he had one of his better games in this one. He had 43 touches and completed 84.9% of his 33 passes, including three of his seven long balls. His five clearances were second on the team behind Jansson and he added an interception in a strong performance.

D, Kyle Smith, 7 — Smith made his presence known early in this game with a wonderful ball to Enrique in the 10th minute for the first goal. He added a second assist in the 66th minute on the buildup that gave the Lions a 2-1 lead. Statistically, Smith had 51 touches and completed 68.8% of his 32 passes, including a key pass, two of his three crosses, and one of his six long balls. Defensively, the right back had a tackle, clearance, and a team-high four interceptions before coming off for Mikey Halliday in the 81st minute.

MF, Wilder Cartagena, 6.5 — Cartagena was excellent in the defensive midfield, touching the ball a team-high 73 times and completing 78.2% of his 55 passes, including three of his five long balls. The Peruvian was everywhere for the Lions defensively, recording a team-high four tackles, three interceptions, a clearance, and a blocked shot. Unfortunately, he got booked in the game and will miss the season finale.

MF, Cesar Araujo, 6 — Similar to Cartagena, Araujo had a solid performance against Cincinnati. The defensive midfielder touched the ball 65 times and completed 88.9% of his 45 passes, including one of his three long balls. Defensively, Araujo recorded three tackles, two interceptions, and two clearances. I lowered his grade a little because he was one of two players who didn’t close down Luciano Acosta in the 45th minute, enabling him to score Cincinnati’s lone goal.

MF, Ivan Angulo, 6.5 — Angulo’s inclusion in the starting lineup was somewhat of a surprise after he was substituted at halftime against Philadelphia. However, he had a great game, scoring the team’s second goal and assisting on the third. He ended up with 46 touches and completed 83.9% of his 31 passes, including a key pass and his only long ball. His only shot was the goal and he helped defensively, recording a team-high four tackles. If there’s a knock on his game it was that he was a bit loose with the ball in his own half at times. The attacker came off for Felipe in the 81st minute.

MF, Luis Muriel, 6 — While he wasn’t as impactful as Wednesday night, Muriel had another strong performance in this game, starting in place of Martin Ojeda. He had 49 touches and completed 81.4% of his 43 passes, including a key pass and one of his five long balls. He didn’t take any shots in the game and added a tackle defensively before being replaced by Nico Lodeiro in the 73rd minute.

MF, Facundo Torres, 5.5 — Torres had 58 touches in this game and completed 79.6% of his 44 passes, including a key pass. However, he didn’t connect on his cross or either of his two long balls. He had one shot that was on target and helped defensively with three tackles and an interception, but his failure to close down Acosta in the 45th minute contributed to Cincinnati’s goal.

F, Ramiro Enrique, 7.5 (MotM) — There’s no question who the Man of the Match was in this game, as Enrique had two goals and an assist, figuring in all three Orlando goals. He had 35 touches and completed 70.6% of his 17 passes, including a key pass. Three of his four shots were on target, and he netted a brace while doing well to tap the ball down for Angulo on the second goal. It was an excellent game for the striker — probably his best for the team.

Substitutes

MF, Nico Lodeiro (73’), 6 — Lodeiro came into the game in the 73rd minute for Muriel, providing some defensive support right after the Lions took a 3-1 lead. He touched the ball 18 times and completed 84.6% of his 13 passes, including a key pass. However, he didn’t complete his lone long ball. The midfielder also won a pair of tackles, helping his team to see out the win.

D, Michael Halliday (81’), N/A — Halliday came on in the 81st minute for Smith and didn’t do much. He only touched the ball three times and completed his only pass without adding any defensive statistics.

MF, Felipe (81’), N/A — Felipe wasn’t very involved after coming on for Angulo in the 81st minute, but did his job. He touched the ball nine times and completed 66.7% of his six passes, but his real contribution was defensively where the Brazilian had a tackle and clearance in the final minutes.

F, Jack Lynn (87’), N/A — Lynn came on for Enrique in the 87th minute, touching the ball 10 times and completing 66.7% of his six passes. He drew a foul but was dispossessed once in the final minutes of the game.

MF, Martin Ojeda (88’), N/A — Ojeda came on in the 88th minute for Torres to waste some time and see the game out. He touched the ball 10 times and completed 83.3% of his six passes. However, his only cross was incomplete.

This is how I saw Orlando City’s individual performances in the Lions’ 3-1 win over FC Cincinnati. Let us know how you saw the game and don’t forget to vote on your Man of the Match.

Hello, Mane Landers! I hope all is well with you down in Florida. I’ve been busy working at Under Armour and spent my birthday yesterday catching up with friends I haven’t seen in a while. For our clubs in action, Orlando City and the Orlando Pride won, while OCB lost over the weekend. We’ve got plenty to cover today, so let’s get to the links.

Lions Beat FC Cincinnati On the Road

Orlando City defeated FC Cincinnati 3-1 at TQL Stadium on Saturday. Ramiro Enrique scored early on, but FC Cincinnati equalized just before halftime. Ivan Angulo scored for Orlando in the second half, and Enrique added his second of the match to secure all three points for the Lions. It was Orlando’s third straight win and the team is fourth in the Eastern Conference table with 52 points. The Lions are off this weekend but will return to action on Oct. 19 at home against Atlanta United for their final game of the regular season.

Ramiro Enrique Up for Player of the Matchday

Orlando City forward Ramiro Enrique was nominated for MLS Player of the Matchday for his performance in Cincinnati.

Enrique scored two goals and also assisted on Angulo’s goal to lift the Lions to victory against one of the league’s best teams. The 23-year-old has scored in three of Orlando’s last four matches and has eight goals to his name this season. Other players in the running for MLS Player of the Matchday are Cucho Hernandez of the Columbus Crew, Simon Becher of St. Louis City SC, and Santiago Rodriguez of New York City FC.

Orlando Pride Win the NWSL Shield

On Sunday, the Orlando Pride defeated the Washington Spirit 2-0 at Inter&Co Stadium to clinch the NWSL. It’s the first trophy in club history and the Pride extended their unbeaten run to 23 matches as well. After a scoreless first half, Marta scored from the penalty spot to put the Pride in front and an own goal by defender Tara McKeown off a shot from Adriana gave the Pride a 2-0 lead to seal the win. Orlando is atop the NWSL table with 57 points and has a 10-point cushion over the Spirit with three games left this season. The Pride’s next match will be on the road against the Portland Thorns on Friday. Enjoy this moment of the Pride celebrating winning the NWSL Shield as their historic season continues.

Pride Players Named to NWSL Best XI of the Month

Goalkeeper Anna Moorhouse, defender Emily Sams, and forward Marta were named to the NWSL Best XI of the Month for September. This is the second time that Moorhouse has been named to the NWSL Best XI of the Month this season. She registered four clean sheets in five matches last month and made 18 saves as well. Moorhouse also set a new league record with 12 shutouts. Sams also made her second appearance on the NWSL Best XI of the Month. She played in all five matches, won five tackles, and had six interceptions in 450 minutes of play. It’s Marta’s first time on the NWSL Best XI this season, and she scored twice in September to keep Orlando’s offense rolling. All three played vital roles throughout the season to help the Pride keep their unbeaten streak alive.

OCB Falls to FC Cincinnati 2 On Decision Day

Orlando City B lost 3-1 to FC Cincinnati 2 at TQL Stadium on Sunday, falling short of clinching a home playoff match. The Young Lions trailed 2-0 at halftime before Alex Freeman pulled one back in the second half. Gerardo Valenzuela completed his hat trick to give Cincinnati its third goal and the win. With OCB’s defeat, Inter Miami CF II took the Southeast Division title, and OCB dropped from third to fifth in the Eastern Conference standings. With the regular season over, the Young Lions will have to wait and see if Cincinnati, Philadelphia Union II, or Miami will choose them as their opponent in the first round of the MLS NEXT Pro playoffs. If OCB isn’t chosen, it would travel to face Chicago Fire FC II, which finished fourth in the East.

Free Kicks

  • Marta’s contract with the Pride expires at the end of the season, and she told The Athletic ($) she wants to continue playing professional soccer for at least two more seasons.
  • USMNT and Borussia Dortmund winger Giovanni Reyna is dealing with a setback in his recovery from a groin injury suffered last month. There is currently no timetable for his return.
  • Tanner Tessmann, Brandon Vazquez, and Alex Zendejas were called into camp for the USMNT’s upcoming friendlies against Panama and Mexico. Folarin Balogun, Johnny Cardoso, and Tim Weah have all withdrawn from the team due to injuries.
  • Christian Pulisic scored another goal for AC Milan, as he found the back of the net in his team’s 2-1 loss to Fiorentina in Serie A action. Pulisic has scored six goals across all competitions for Milan this season.

That will do it for me today, Mane Landers. Enjoy your Monday and I’ll see you next time.
