Having claimed Florida bragging rights for the time being, Orlando City SC look to secure a spot in the knockout round of the MLS Is Back tournament Tuesday night when it faces New York City FC.
The Lions (1-1-1) do not exactly have home-pitch advantage despite the tournament being played in their backyard in Orlando, but they can lay claim to the first Florida derby victory after rallying past Inter Miami CF 2-1 on Wednesday night to open MLS Is Back.
There was some Manchester United on Manchester United crime as former playmaker Nani spoiled the MLS return of United icon and current Inter Miami CF president David Beckham, setting up Christopher Mueller's equalizer in the 70th minute before bagging the winner seven minutes into stoppage time on a scramble inside the penalty area.
