COMMERCE CITY, Colo. — At this point in the season, no one can accuse Orlando City of not being able to mount a comeback.

The Lions conceded first – after scoring first in back-to-back matches for the first time this season – but didn’t wilt in the face of pressure from the Colorado Rapids. A golazo from Cristian Higuita and a penalty kick from Yoshimar Yotún helped the Lions leave Colorado with three points.
