Game Notes
The Story:
Orlando City B showed resilience after trailing 2-0 at halftime against Chicago Fire FC II, ramping up second-half pressure that forced a mistake from Chicago goalkeeper Owen Pratt for an own goal before finding a stoppage time equalizer, then capping the comeback by claiming the extra point in an end-of-regulation shootout.
17-year-old midfielder Nicolas Lasheras delivered the match equalizer for the Lions, heading the ball home in the fifth minute of second-half stoppage time for his first professional goal in his seventh appearance for OCB.
Orlando City B will look to shift focus as it returns home to Osceola Heritage Park to face Crown Legacy FC, entering Sunday with momentum after back to back end-of-regulation shootouts in which they took the extra point from both, and will look to build upon recent success as the MLS Next Pro season continues.
