SEO Match Summary
Orlando City SC dismantled Charlotte FC 4–1 on 23 April in an MLS encounter where the hosts' clinical finishing proved decisive despite modest underlying metrics. Operating in a 5–3–2 shape, Orlando converted their chances ruthlessly, with Martin Ojeda netting twice and Luis Otavio and Ignacio Gomez adding one each from just 11 shots and 6 on target. Charlotte's 4–2–3–1 formation generated more volume with 15 shots, yet only five found the target, yielding an expected goals figure of 1.36 compared to Orlando's 1.52. The visitors' goalkeeper produced a respectable 80 per cent save rate and prevented 1.08 goals above expected, but Charlotte's attacking dominance in shot count could not translate to a result. Orlando's five-man defensive line proved sufficiently robust to contain Charlotte's pressure and capitalise on transitions. This victory underscores Orlando's efficiency in front of goal during a critical phase of the season.

Goalkeeper Performance

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.
