Three questions with The Mane Land

We spoke with Michael Citro from The Mane Land, SB Nation's Orlando City SC blog, about what to expect from the Lions in tomorrow's match against the Philadelphia Union.

Orlando is well known for their offense, but four goals against this season is among the league's lowest. What makes the defense tick, and are there any weaknesses?

There are three aspects to Orlando's defensive performance so far this season. First, the cover provided by central midfielders Cristian Higuita, Darwin Ceren and Servando Carrasco has been excellent. They break up play throughout the middle of the park, force teams wide toward the fullbacks, and make life miserable for opposing attackers by being relentless for 90 minutes.
