3 things we learned from Orlando City’s draw at Toronto FC

Orlando City broke its two-game losing skid with a 1-1 draw in Toronto on Saturday night, coming back from a second-half deficit to equalize the game with a penalty kick from captain Luis Nani. Here are three things we learned from the match:

Fullback Kyle Smith is the only defensive player to play every single match of the 2021 season for the Lions, and his ability to handle top assignments is becoming a key to the team’s backline.
