Orlando City has been in a death crawl toward the end of the season for months and entered last night’s game without so much as scoring a goal in the last five games. The Lions did manage to get on the scoreboard last night in a 2-1 loss to Seattle, but a slow start to the match gave the team an uphill climb. The team made a valiant effort to scale that mountain but couldn’t find an equalizer.
Dom Dwyer’s 13th goal of the season snapped his four-game streak without scoring and gave him 17 since joining the team last season, throwing the Lions a lifeline.
