Breaking Down the XI: Adam Grinwis Starts; Sane Returns

Sane Start

When Orlando City takes on the Houston Dynamo tonight at Orlando City Stadium, there will be a couple of fresh faces on the field.


In goal, Adam Grinwis will get his first MLS start. Grinwis was signed this January after impressing in the USL with Sant Louis FC.


On the backline, Lamine Sané will start for the first time since June 30th. Sané’s knee injury cost him 11 matches. He will be joined by Mohamed El-Munir, Jonathan Spector, and Scott Sutter in defense.


In the defensive midfield, Carlos Ascues and Uri Rosell will pair up again.


In the forward midfield, you’ll see the trio of Yoshi Yotún, Sacha Kljestan, and Will Johnson. Sacha Kljestan is just one assist away from tying Cobi Jones for 8th-most in MLS history.


Starting up top, as always, is Dom Dwyer.


Starting XI presented by Orlando Health: Grinwis, El-Munir, Sané, Spector, Sutter, Ascues, Rosell, Yotún, Kljestan, Johnson, Dwyer.


Bench: Bendik, Colmán, Da Silva, O’Neill, Mueller, Allen, Pinho.
