Toronto would score first, but it would be Orlando City's captain that would seal the victory for the home side.
Championsgate, FL-- Orlando City defeated Toronto FC 2-1 in a very physical, chippy match that did not look good for the Lions early on. Toronto dominated possession early and in the fifth minute Jonathan Osorio scored for Toronto on a strike that glanced off the crossbar and deflected down behind Joe Bendik to give the Reds an early 1-0 lead.
Orlando would spend the rest of the half trying to sustain pressure, but were unable to against a stout Toronto defense and midfield that controlled much of the possession through the first 45.
