\n Late Game Lions\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
Orlando City B has built a habit of going\u00a0to the wire of contests, with back-to-back matches decided in\u00a0end-of-regulation\u00a0shootouts. The Lions showed composure under pressure in consecutive spot-kick finishes against Carolina Core FC and Chicago Fire FC\u00a0II, securing the\u00a0extra points\u00a0from the two tightly contested performances.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
