4-3 upset of Inter Miami<\/a> and Lionel Messi last week. The Lions rallied from a 3-0 deficit to claim the victory.<\/p>\nThis time out, the Lions found the road trip bumpier. Martin Ojeda of Orlando, who had a hat trick against Miami, had just one shot on goal Saturday and two attempts total. Ojeda\u2019s left-footed shot from outside the box was saved in the center of the goal by Gillier in the 71st minute.<\/p>\n
Tyrese Spicer, who scored the winner against Miami, also managed just one shot on goal. His left-footed shot from the left side of the box missed to the left in the 56th minute.<\/p>\n
Just after that, Orlando City had a great chance in the 57th minute. Iago Teodoro\u2019s header off a cross by Ojeda from the center of the box was stopped by Gillier.<\/p>\n
The Lions\u2019 best opportunity in the first half came in the 29th minute. Griffin Dorsey\u2019s left-footed shot after a pass from Justin Ellis was shut down by Gillier.<\/p>\n
Montreal led in all major statistical categories. CFM had 53.8% possession, outshot Orlando 25-9 and had a 11-3 advantage in corner kicks. The Lions had four shots on goal while Montreal was on target with six of its shots.<\/p>\n
Gillier had his third shutout this season.<\/p>\n
Luca Petrasso drew a penalty, conceded by Orlando City\u2019s Robin Jansson. R\u00edos converted from the spot in the fourth minute of injury time to open the scoring.<\/p>\n
Icelandic midfielder Thorhallsson scored his first goal for Montreal (4-7-0, 12 points) to make it 2-0 in the eighth minute of stoppage time. The club acquired Thorhallsson from Orlando City on Dec. 10 in exchange for up to $625,000 in General Allocation Money.<\/p>\n
Thorhallsson, 25, arrived in Orlando in January of 2023 and recorded eight goals and nine assists across all competitions for the Lions, making 70 starts in 116 appearances.<\/p>\n
Maxime Cr\u00e9peau had three saves for Orlando (3-8-1). The Lions remain at 10 points and are second from the bottom of the table in the Eastern Conference of MLS, ahead of Philadelphia. The Union will visit Inter&Co Stadium on Wednesday.
