Jay Fortune's late goal helps Atlanta United earn 1-1 draw with Orlando City
ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) --- Jay Fortune scored late in the second half to rally
Atlanta United to a 1-1 draw with Orlando City on Saturday night.
Fortune used assists from defenders Matthew Edwards and Stian Gregersen in the
86th minute to score for the second time this season and the fourth time in 64
career appearances. Both defenders checked into the match in the 68th minute
before notching their first assists this season.
Defender Griffin Dorsey put Orlando City up 1-0 when he took passes from Ivn
Angulo and Martn Ojeda in the 18th minute to score his second goal this
season. Angulo's assist was his seventh --- one off the league lead --- and
Ojeda collected his first. Dorsey scored his first goal in a 4-3 victory over
the Philadelphia Union on Wednesday.
Maxime Crpeau had three saves in goal for Orlando City (4-8-2).
Lucas Hoyos turned away two shots for Atlanta United (3-8-2).
Orlando City is now 3-3-1 at home, while Atlanta United improves to 1-3-1 on
the road.
Atlanta United had scored eight goals in its previous four matches. The club
scored five goals in its first six outings.
Orlando City entered with three wins in its last four matches --- beating the
New England Revolution, Inter Miami, and the Philadelphia all by 4-3 scores.
The only loss was a 2-0 setback in Montreal.
The two teams square off again on Tuesday in Orlando in the quarterfinals of
the U.S. Open Cup.
