Orlando City is off to the best 10-game start in club history, with 21 points in the bag and the best points-per-game in the Eastern Conference.
The Lions have done this despite several key absences through injuries, suspensions and international duty. Various players have stepped up to the plate to carry the torch, with Andrés Perea, Brandon Austin and Benji Michel among those starring in City’s nine-point run last week.
But perhaps the most encouraging sign has come from 18 year-old Homegrown right back Mikey Halliday, who has played the last 135 minutes for Orlando and helped the Lions see off Inter Miami in Fort Lauderdale last Friday night.
