SANFORD, Fla. — Dom Dwyer didn’t really celebrate when he broke his 10-week scoring streak.
Orlando City was still trailing New England when Dwyer nodded in the goal in the first minute of the half. He pumped his arms at the supporters’ section twice and slapped palms with Nani and Carlos Ascues as they passed. But as the striker jogged to midfield, his emotion flashed for a moment as he clenched both fists, dropping his head with a grin as he clearly yelled one word — “Yes!”
When Dwyer repeated the feat the following week against Houston — again, with his head — the celebration was even more joyous.
