Brining better results to Orlando City Stadium.

Da Silva, speaking after a Thursday news conference to announce the all-star game, said he believe James O’Connor is the right man to bring results. Orlando City suffered a 4-0 loss at Chicago Sunday and has rarely been competitive during the second half of the season.

O’Connor was hired midway through the year after Jason Kreis was fired following a six-match losing streak, which eventually turned into a nine-match slide.
