Orlando City hosted the New England Revolution in the team’s second-ever playoff match, with a spot in the Eastern Conference final on the line. In the end, it was a frustrating, ill-disciplined game that saw Orlando’s incredible season come to its conclusion. Here are my takeaways from the Lions’ final match of 2020.
Unlucky In The First Half
Out of the gate, Orlando City was on the front foot. The Lions dominated possession for much of the first half, especially the first 20 minutes, but they couldn’t capitalize on their early success. They never really asked much of Matt Turner, and got caught on the counter and conceded a penalty for an early goal completely against the run of play.
