The curious case of Carlos Rivas has created a mixed reaction among the Orlando City fan base. To some, Rivas is not worth his Young Designated Player tag; to others, he is full of untapped potential just waiting to break out. The latter set of fans might have gained the upper hand last weekend when Rivas tallied his first goal in MLS and salvaged a point in Foxborough.
While Rivas has developed a reputation for skying shots into the stands and being all pace with no end product, perhaps he's turned a corner. We've seen Kevin Molino's goal scoring pick up after netting his first, maybe Rivas is the next in line.
