Orlando City SC claimed a 2–1 victory over CF Montreal in an MLS encounter where both sides deployed identical 4–2–3–1 formations but diverged sharply in efficiency. The hosts dominated the expected goals metric with 2.57 xG against Montreal's 1.56, converting their chances more decisively despite Montreal's superior shot count of 18 to 15. Both teams registered six shots on target, yet Orlando's clinical finishing proved decisive; Duncan McGuire and Martin Ojeda found the net for the home side, while Prince-Osei Owusu's goal proved insufficient for Montreal. The visitors' goalkeeper made 83.33 per cent of saves but conceded 0.36 xG above expectation, indicating lapses in positioning on Orlando's decisive moments. Referee Jair Antonio Maruffo oversaw proceedings without notable controversy. Orlando's second consecutive win strengthens their playoff credentials considerably.
Read it this way: PSxG conceded is how dangerous the shots on target were, Goals conceded is how many actually went in, Goals saved is the gap between the two (higher is better, a minus means he should have saved more), and Save % is the share of on-target shots kept out.
