  • 64' With 0 assists to his name this season, Oriol Rosell is clearly more than just a goal scorer for Orlando City SC.
  • 69' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.

  • 90' The referee does not hesitate — a Yellow card for Luis Martins on 90 minutes.
