A Career Year
Tesho Akindele scored his seventh goal of the 2019 season against New England last Saturday, trailing only Nani on the squad. With the finish, Akindele tied his single-season career-high in regular season play, which he set in his 2014 MLS Rookie of the Year campaign. Prior to his arrival in Orlando, Akindele spent five seasons with FC Dallas, drafted third-overall in the 2014 MLS SuperDraft before being traded to the Lions on December 9th of last year.
Leading the Charge
Nani registered his eighth assist of the season on Akindele’s finish in New England last week.
