Orlando City SCvsFC Cincinnati
ORL 2/CIN 6
Things to say
FC Cincinnati hammered Orlando City 6-2 at TQL Stadium.
01
opener
Cincy absolutely ran over Orlando, 6-2 at home. It was over by the hour mark. Orlando looked cooked.
02
key player
Denkey had six shots and was a menace up top — Orlando's back line had no answer for him all night.
03
hot take
Orlando's not a 4-2-9 team, they're worse. That defense is going to cost them a playoff spot.
04
deep cut
Celentano made seven saves in a 6-2 win, which tells you Orlando actually had chances — they just ran into a hot keeper and got punished on the other end.
05
exit
Anyway, Cincy's looking like a real Supporters' Shield threat — curious what they do next week.
The recap
Cincinnati absolutely ran riot at TQL, putting six past Orlando in a 6-2 thumping that was over almost before it started. Kévin Denkey was a menace up top with six shots, and even with Roman Celentano making seven saves at the other end, this one never felt close once Cincy got rolling.
Orlando's two goals were window dressing — Maxime Crépeau was picking the ball out of his net all night. A statement result that pushes Cincinnati back over .500 and leaves Orlando staring at a long flight home.
