Orlando City vs. Sporting Kansas City: Five Takeaways

Orlando City hosted Sporting Kansas City in Exploria stadium on a muggy night. Of course the Blue Man Group was there for “Neon Night,” so we had that going for us. Which is nice.

With time running down on the season, Orlando City was able to earn all three points at home. What did we learn from the 1-0 win?

Kyle Smith sustained a gash to his forehead in the first 10 minutes of the match, and he had to be subbed off for Shane O’Neill in the 12th minute. With João Moutinho and Ruan both out with hamstring injuries, James O’Connor did not have another fullback on the bench to come in for Smith.
