Orlando Goals: Larin 31mins & 50mins
A Quick Look…
Sporting Earth Day inspired jerseys on a beautiful spring day in the Bronx, New York City FC were unable to avenge their opening weekend defeat to Orlando, going down 2-1.
NYCFC’s nemesis Cyle Larin scored on either side of the halftime interval to inflict a first home defeat of the season despite Villa’s late reply on 73’.
What Happened…
A well-worked corner routine almost game NYCFC the perfect start inside 60 seconds as Andrea Pirlo found Alex Ring on the edge of the box but the Finnish midfielder’s sweetly-struck shot was beaten away by Joe Bendik in the Orlando goal.
