For week 18 of the United States – MLS 2023 tournament, Orlando City was superior and took all three points against a lackluster rival. The goals for the local were scored by Facundo Torres (10′ 2T) and Ramiro Enrique (37′ 2T).
A great play by Orlando City, 10 minutes into the second half, was the one that moved the score thanks to Facundo Torres. Mauricio Pereyra gave the ball to the midfielder, who whipped from the semicircle to the left post.
The best player of the match was Facundo Torres. The Orlando City SC midfielder scored 1 goal and searched for the opposite goal 4 times.
Ramiro Enrique also stood out at the Exploria Stadium. The Orlando City SC attacker scored 1 goal.
The game was notable for a lot of friction and constant fouls that cut the game short. There were several cautioned: Lalas Abubakar, Antônio Carlos, Kyle Smith and Darren Yapi. Braian Galván was sent off for a direct red card (38′, 1T) and Lalas Abubakar for a double yellow card (29′, 2T).
Orlando City manager Óscar Pareja proposed a 4-5-1 formation with Pedro Gallese in goal; Kyle Smith, Antônio Carlos, Robin Jansson and Rafael Santos on the defensive line; César Araujo, Wilder Cartagena, Facundo Torres, Mauricio Pereyra and Iván Angulo in the middle; and Ercan Kara in attack.
For its part, Robin Fraser’s team took to the field with a 3-5-2 scheme with Marko Ilic under the three sticks; Lalas Abubakar, Andreas Maxso and Danny Wilson in defense; Keegan Rosenberry, Connor Ronan, Bryan Acosta, Braian Galván and Cole Bassett at half court; and Rémi Cabral and Jonathan Lewis up front.
Rosendo Mendoza was the referee who led the match at the Exploria Stadium.
Orlando City’s next game in the championship will be away against New England Revolution, while the Rapids host Vancouver Whitecaps FC.
