Orlando City 4, D.C. United 1
Griezmann scored twice as Orlando City built a 4-1 lead with three first-half goals and extended its unbeaten run.
On Saturday, Orlando City defeated D.C. United 4-1 at Inter.co Stadium, with forward Antoine Griezmann scoring two goals and adding an assist and midfielder Martin Ojeda contributing a goal and an assist.
The win follows Wednesday's 3-3 draw against Toronto FC, which left the Lions seeking improvement as they currently hold seventh place in the Eastern Conference playoff race.
Griezmann opened scoring in the 15th minute, with Ojeda adding a goal in the 22nd. D.C. United's Tai Baribo converted a penalty before halftime, and Marco Pasalic scored in stoppage time.
The victory leaves the Lions five points ahead of eighth-place Red Bull New York and ninth-place FC Cincinnati, with Orlando City now holding 41 points and a 12-13-5 record.
Up next, the Lions host New York City FC on Saturday; defender Robin Jansson will miss the remainder of 2026 after surgery repaired a fractured fifth metatarsal.
