ORLANDO, Fla. (Oct. 10, 2026) — Orlando City SC (11-13-4, 37 points) earned a 3-2 victory over the Columbus Crew (8-15-5, 29 points) on Saturday night at Inter.co Stadium.

Harvey Sarajian opened the scoring for the Lions in the first minute, burying the third-fastest goal in club history. Iván Angulo raced onto a through ball and cut a pass back to Antoine Griezmann, who picked out Sarajian in the middle for a right-footed finish into the lower right corner.

Sarajian’s strike marked his second goal for Orlando City and his second consecutive home match finding the back of the net, while the assist was Griezmann’s fifth of the MLS campaign and Angulo’s club-leading 12th of the 2026 campaign.

Columbus pulled level six minutes later as Santiago Rodríguez slipped a pass to Taha Habroune, who slotted a right-footed finish into the lower right corner.

Orlando City restored its lead in the 16th minute via Griezmann, who curled a left-footed free kick into the lower left corner for his 10th goal across all competitions since joining the Club during the summer. The 2018 FIFA World Cup winner has now recorded at least one goal contribution in each of his last eight MLS games with the Lions.

Columbus pulled level eight minutes into the second half through Brais Méndez. Taha Habroune slipped a ball into Méndez, who pulled Maxime Crépeau off his line before slotting a left-footed finish to equalize.

The Lions found a winner against the run of play in the 89th minute through Angulo. Advancing into the attack, the Colombian played a ball wide to Martín Ojeda, who returned the pass into the box for Angulo to slot home and restore the Lions’ lead.

Columbus pushed for an equalizer throughout the closing stages, but the Lions held firm behind Crépeau, who made a club-record 12 saves to surpass the previous single-match record mark of 11 set by Mason Stajduhar and later matched by Crépeau in the Lions’ season opener against Red Bull New York.

Orlando City next travels to take on Toronto FC on Wednesday, Oct. 14, at BMO Field. Kickoff is set for 7:30 p.m. ET on Apple TV.

Interim Head Coach Martín Perelman:

“Iván [Angulo] is scoring and performing, which is great for him and great for the team, for everyone. He is not the only one; many players are scoring, Grizi [Antoine Griezman] and many of them. Everybody is giving the biggest effort they can. Everyone is important. Again, we have a lot of things to improve always, but we are humble and working hard.”

Orlando City SC Forward Harvey Sarajian:

“We wanted to start off fast. The whole pregame talk was energy, energy, energy and start fast because we’ve had some slow starts. So, when it fell to me it was like, I needed to put it away just to [uplift] the team after some crappy results.”

Orlando City SC Goalkeeper Maxime Crépeau:

“Very happy with the three points. We know how crucial the points are from now until the end of the year. It’s going to be super important to continue putting in strong performances, especially at home, with three of our next four matches here. Coming back from the break, it was important to get out strong and find a response toward the end of the game, so we’re very happy with it.”
