net gooy and surge is flick on comes kindly into shaffle BG and theel is wide open Alex Mel and a save from G this is Beautiful by the way how about s there with a little flick and then uh schafberg coming inside and recognizing that run by m he's got plenty of time he has too much time to think about it specialty coming out and making himself big aael Santos inside of Shak Moore and then lifting the cross in it's away from litz and Angulo and now Martino hea not the cleanest shot Joe Willis handled it relatively well but you can see the intent there from Orlando City to start to push their lines a little bit forward there you go oh Willis gives away it's Ian [Applause] Angulo Nashville caught out playing from the back one pass one goal Orlando City against the Run of play have the opening Go game isn't it it was a Bright Start for Nashville they try to play out of the back after the first shot by Orlando city and OA does a terrific job of recognizing that one touch pass to Angulo great turn and an easy finish to beat Joe Willies who had made that mistake initially 1-0 Orlando city and it was Josh bow that keeps him on but Angulo has stood right in the middle of the penalty area on the recovery that came to Alex muel as It's Tricky feet there great skill from OA who's gone running Beyond anunga with a lovely bit of skill faku Torres and Tor hson lifted to the back post Angulo and Torres a red hot start for Orlando City bre scoring and their home ground once again Pap how about this from OA see you later what a fantastic turn and then his ability to play the ball out wide the overlapping Movement by Thor hson which is something that osara has really implemented into this team great cross from a right foot but absolutely free fako Torres and if it's not him it would have been Angulo but it is the yuru WAN with a terrific finish to get his ninth one of the season in Major League Soccer that is beautiful stuff from Oscar P's side deep line playmaking role gives it to MTAR who lifts into Sur oh it's up the post another big chance for Nashville and more lifting in in towards Ms away from Tor hson only as far as gooy behind Hapa Santos who has some deficiencies there and he doesn't go with conviction oh over this free kick it's another cross he'll get whipped in with his left foot get it real pace and thores with a header across and jansson was there but couldn't direct it towards go two headers from a set piece usually means a goal but not that time here's M's delivery Zimmerman tracking surge did as well and it bounces but it came for Gesa the offside flag is up from mu's involvement slow developing but on mkar goes charging runs either side pled behind in toward Sam Surge and surage with jansson's intervention enough to slow him down fourth of the game for Nashville lofted in again Powers there his header towards goal is wide godessa was scrambling across but knew it was going other side of the [Applause] post the four or five spots could become very valuable in avoiding those top team in the E Enrique gets turning has Torres running with him here's faku Torres and Willis with fingertips to it always going to go with his left there Torres and couldn't get enough power behind it the patience in the buildup and eventually a line breaking pass that gets to Ramiro Enrique who has the presence of mind to wait for fundo Torres and in behind hereo haa assesses his options and goes back towards the edge of the air of that AO but anunga was in the way now MTAR trying to win it back but outo stepping and then anunga it's on for Enrique and it was awkward there from Willis he saved it onto his own post stood over [Applause] [Music] it towards that near post it's easily away there from bz who hasn't been too involved Santos turning down the chance to have a crack OA decent delivery into the back post header across and the flip from audacious but went across the face of goal rather than towards it just smashing away and it be for Maguire to play the bounce and into loo Maguire with him at full stretch will'll give it to him Maguire and acres here for fundo Torres job done for Orlando City a second on the night for red fako Torres a finish great recognition by Pedro gesi in a 2v2 situation Maguire and loo combining great vision and then the patience here the Run by muel to drag two players and leave fundo Torres absolutely on an island by himself with plenty of time to take a touch pick his Target and execute his second goal of the night and his 41st goal in his history with Orlando City right over the head of Joe Willis against NV see so you want to continue with that Rhythm and that break sometimes is not the best thing MTAR goes in behind in towards aago now bumbery trying to chest it into Ajo finishes into the corner but the offside flag was up and there is the full-time whistle Orlando city after a bit of a rocky start it turns into a comfortable 3-0 win fundo Torres at the Double to pair with Ivan angulo's opener and it finishes Orlando 3 Nashville nil [Music]
