Sebas Mendez a Reliable Replacement for Junior Urso

Junior Urso was playing his best soccer since joining Orlando City when he went down with his injury against the Philadelphia Union. Sure, it was only a 15-minute performance, but at the time, Urso was dominating the game.

The Union had no answer for his late runs into the box, as the Bear fired two early shots — one on target — and nearly got onto another cross. Meanwhile, he was also winning the ball in midfield, was a perfect five-for-five in passing accuracy and had a recovery and an interception. It was the game we’ve been waiting for from Urso and it was unfortunately cut short far too early.
