Nacho Stays Hot
Forward Ignacio Gomez has scored in back-to-back matches, recording his first two goals of the 2026 MLS NEXT Pro season. The 20-year-old previously notched his first MLS goal in Orlando City’s 4-1 victory over Charlotte FC on April 22.

Sarajian Leads the Lions
Harvey Sarajian’s strike in the 50th minute gave Orlando City B the lead as part of the Lions’ four-goal second-half rally against Chattanooga FC. The goal marked a key turning point as OCB surged ahead to secure the result. In nine starts for OCB, the No. 5 overall pick in the 2026 MLS SuperDraft has recorded a team-leading five goals and 10 goal contributions this season. Sarajian has quickly established himself as a consistent attacking presence, leading the squad in scoring while playing a central role in the club’s offensive production.
Leão Bags Brace
Pedro Leão recorded a brace in Orlando City B’s 5-2 win over Chattanooga FC, marking the first multi-goal performance of his professional career. The Brazilian scored the equalizer three minutes into the second half on a low through ball from Bernardo Rhein, igniting the Lions’ four-goal second-half surge. He later converted from the penalty spot in the 81st minute to cap the rally, bringing his total to five goals on the 2026 MLS NEXT Pro season.
