Orlando City was able to stay on track for its first ever MLS playoff berth by stopping a New York Red Bulls team that had outscored its last two opponents by an 8-2 margin. It was another good performance under Oscar Pareja and a win the gaffer said the team should be proud of after the match.
Pareja was without Dom Dwyer, Joao Moutinho, Ruan, Uri Rosell, and Tesho Akindele due to injury. He was also missing Sebas Mendez due to a red card suspension and Matheus Aias has yet to be cleared to join the team for training.
