Orlando City Beat Toronto FC 3-0 to Extend Unbeaten Run

Griezmann provides the platform

The report says Antoine Griezmann opened the scoring in first-half stoppage time, continuing a strong run that has brought him eight goals in 10 games. His finishing has given Orlando a reliable attacking reference during their unbeaten spell.

The opening goal also highlighted Orlando’s supply from deeper areas. The report credits Zakaria Taifi, a 20-year-old centre-back, and Marco Pašalić with assists. Taifi has reportedly registered three assists this season, while Pašalić has two.

The bench changed the game

Orlando’s substitutes supplied the decisive momentum. The report says Harvey Sarajian entered in the 80th minute and scored two minutes later, continuing an unusual pattern: all seven of his appearances have reportedly come from the bench.

Daryl Dike provided the assist, his second in six matches, before Iván Angulo completed the scoring in the sixth minute of added time. Sarajian assisted that goal, while Justin Ellis was also credited with a final pass. Ellis has reportedly reached 10 assists, underlining the depth behind Orlando’s headline attackers.

A clean sheet with playoff value

The report credits goalkeeper Maxime Crépeau with a composed display, making two saves in each half. It would be his fourth clean sheet in 24 starts this season, giving Orlando defensive stability alongside their improving attack.

Toronto’s reported record of six wins, eight defeats and 11 draws leaves the Canadian side close to the lower edge of the Eastern Conference playoff race. A three-goal defeat increases the pressure on their next fixture.

The report says Orlando City visit New England Revolution on Saturday, September 19, while Toronto FC travel to St. Louis City. Orlando’s next challenge is proving this surge can continue away from home.
