Orlando City’s inability to finish chances haunted the team throughout the entire month of May.
To start off June, the Lions, facing a team that embarrassed them in Orlando City Stadium earlier this year, bucked the trend. The team’s best chances against the Montreal Impact didn’t go begging and coach James O’Connor watched his team earn a positive result before a three-week break from league play.
The Lions (5-7-3, 18 points) struck first, second and third and buried the Impact 3-0 at Stade Saputo in Montreal. Orlando City had no trouble putting away its chances Saturday evening despite playing without star striker Dom Dwyer, who was sidelined due to a hamstring injury that he suffered in the team’s final training session before leaving for Montreal.
