Orlando City B got off to a tough start this season, accumulating only two points in its first seven games. After Friday night’s draw with FC Tucson, the Young Lions have claimed seven points in their last three games. A big reason for this is increased offensive contribution by a greater number of players.
There’s no question that OCB has had defensive problems this season. The first two games saw a defender sent off during each contest, putting the Young Lions at a disadvantage. Multiple goals this season have been due to a defensive lapse that left an opponent open or gave the ball away in a dangerous situation.
