It was Miami’s first franchise win after an 0-5-0 start. Orlando trailed by more than one goal for the first time all season in that game. Dike and Nani provided the offense for Orlando but Julian Carranza’s brace and Rodolfo Pizarro’s insurance goal were enough to lift the Herons. The first Tropic Thunder match went Orlando City’s way, with Nani scoring late to lift the Lions to a 2-1 win over the upstarts from South Florida in the opening match of the MLS is Back Tournament. Despite it being a tournament match, it was also a league game. Juan Agudelo opened the scoring for the Herons, but Mueller equalized, setting the stage for Nani’s 97th-minute winner. Overview The Lions are coming off back-to-back draws, including a plodding 1-1 effort Wednesday night at home against New York City FC.

12 of 2020 with Orlando battling to a 2-1 win on Mauricio Pereyra’s goal. The Lions had taken the lead on an own goal by Andres Reyes. Former Lion Brek Shea tied things up in the 65th, before Pereyra answered with a nice goal off the left post in the 69th minute. The first meeting in Fort Lauderdale opened Phase 1 of Major League Soccer’s return to regular-season play after the MLS is Back Tournament. That one was an uncharacteristically sloppy match for the Lions, who fell 3-2 in Inter Miami’s first-ever home match.
Orlando may be better served to let the hosts have more of the possession and make them string together long sequences to get scoring chances. “We always have the responsibility to win. Miami is a team that is also trying to find their best form at this point of the season, like many others, including us, ” Orlando City Head Coach Oscar Pareja said. “They are players that we recognize, some of them young, the other ones have more experience in the league. It’s very level the league in that aspect, but we recognize in the details what their strengths and their weaknesses are. At this point, we’re trying to find our best form.
Tesho Akindele missed a penalty in the match, but the Lions had several other good opportunities to score (but didn’t) in a wasteful performance. Orlando and Miami battled to a 1-1 draw at Exploria Stadium on Aug. 4, 2021. Antonio Carlos scored in first-half stoppage time but was knocked into concussion protocol on the play by Kelvin Leerdam. Kieran Gibbs equalized in the 66th minute on a header in front of a less-than-attentive Ruan.
History Orlando City is 4-3-2 in this fledgling series (but only 1-3-0 on the road) in the regular season and 4-3-3 in all competitions. The most recent meeting took place at DRV PNK Stadium and saw the only scoreline in the series so far in which the winner had more than a one-goal margin, as Inter Miami won, 4-1, on Oct. 5, 2022. Leonardo Campana scored in the game’s first minute and Orlando City never settled in. Gonzalo Higuain added two goals — one from the spot — and Ariel Lassiter also scored before Ercan Kara pulled one back to spoil the shutout. The first regular-season meeting of 2022 resulted in a 1-0 Orlando City win at Exploria Stadium on July 9 as a stoppage-time own goal by Damion Lowe was the difference between the Lions earning just one point or all three.
Akindele had a goal called back after video review for being offside and the teams split the points. Earlier in the season, the Lions came from behind in Fort Lauderdale to win 2-1 on a pair of brilliant goals by Chris Mueller and Nani on June 25, 2021. In the final meeting of 2020, the Lions saw their 12-match unbeaten streak end on Oct. 24 in a 2-1 road loss in Fort Lauderdale. Miami defender Leandro Gonzalez Pirez’s header in the 89th minute was the difference after a Daryl Dike goal and an own goal off Robin Jansson saw the game tied up at halftime. The teams met in Orlando on Sept.
The ball was sent into the box by Jake Mulraney. The teams also met at Exploria Stadium on May 25, 2022 in U. S. Open Cup action, with the two sides needing extra time after a scoreless 90 minutes. In extra time, Miami got a goal from Jean Mota against the run of play, but Facundo Torres quickly equalized for Orlando. The match ended 1-1 and Orlando won the ensuing penalty shootout, 4-2. Bryce Duke was denied by Mason Stajduhar and DeAndre Yedlin missed the net during the spot kicks, while all four Orlando shooters scored. The intrastate rivals played to a scoreless draw in Orlando on Aug. 27, 2021.
Location has been critical for Miami, as the club is 4-2-0 at home this season vs. 1-5-0 on the road. It’s a rivalry game, so anything can happen. History suggests it’ll be tight. The Lions will need to deal with Miami’s duo of Campana and former Atlanta United star Josef Martinez. So far this season, Martinez leads the club in goals (3), just ahead of Campana (2), but the South Floridians have been taking a goals-by-committee approach in 2023, with 10 different players finding the net in league play. Compare that to just five different Orlando City scorers this season. Miami has been better on transition opportunities but that doesn’t mean Inter doesn’t want the ball.
