Orlando City SC claimed a 1–0 victory over FC Naples in the US Open Cup on 16 April, with Tyrese Spicer's solitary goal proving decisive. Naples dominated proceedings with 20 shots and 8 on target, yet their profligacy in front of goal ultimately cost them; the hosts' goalkeeper recorded a perfect 100 per cent save rate, keeping out everything thrown at him. Orlando, operating in a 3–4-3 shape, were far more clinical, managing just 4 shots on target from 17 attempts but converting the one chance that mattered through Spicer. The gulf between expected performance and actual result was stark—Naples created significantly more opportunities but lacked the composure to capitalise, while the visitors' efficiency on the break proved the difference. This result underscores Orlando's resilience in cup competition despite being second-best for large stretches.
