It’s been a tale of two seasons for Orlando City so far in 2018. After rolling off an impressive six-game winning streak, the Lions have lost their last nine. A big impact on both streaks has been the team’s response to adversity during games.
A cornerstone of Orlando City’s six-game winning streak was coming from behind, doing so in four of the six games. The two that exemplified the fight during the streak were the first pair against the New York Red Bulls and Portland Timbers.
Against the Red Bulls, the Lions fell behind twice and conceded a late equalizer, which could’ve seen the team fall apart.
