Allan Saint-Maximin (Charlotte FC)
K. Kahlina (Charlotte), rated 9.1
Charlotte took the game by the throat after the break. Orlando City SC had more of the ball, but Charlotte carried the sharper threat from the first goal on, with Henry Kessler heading in Ashley Westwood’s delivery in the 6th minute and Allan Saint-Maximin finishing Harry Toffolo’s pass early in the second half for 2-0. Abdoulaye Doucouré, off the bench, made it three before Allan Saint-Maximin was sent off in the 89th minute, and Charlotte still had one more break in them when Rodolfo Aloko, another substitute, turned in Tyger Smalls’ assist deep in stoppage time. Kristijan Kahlina was named player of the match after a clean sheet that Orlando never really threatened to disturb. Charlotte move to fourth in the Eastern Conference on 53 points after 33 games; Orlando City SC sit eighth on 43.
