Orlando City needed 17 games to reach 23 points in 2015. In 2016, the Lions didn’t reach 23 points until after the 20th game. This season, City is sitting on 23 points after 14 matches. After an awful six-game winless streak, three points were vital and the Lions captured them to stay ahead of the club’s pace from the first two years.
The club stopped the bleeding, at least momentarily, but it wasn’t easy. Orlando has an opportunity to turn things around with a couple of home matches coming up and sitting in third place in the Eastern Conference on the first day of June is a welcome change from where the team has been in the past.
