Pedro Gallese - Can't save late meltdownGallese made two saves and allowed two goals in Saturday's 2-1 loss versus Toronto FC.

ImpactGallese could've done more in the second goal, as it was a close-range header from Prince-Osei Owusu, and the Peru international was unable to save Orlando's epic meltdown. Gallese will aim to bounce back in a tough matchup against Cincinnati on May 4.

Prince-Osei Owusu - Scores game-winning goalOwusu scored one goal to go with three shots (one on goal) in Saturday's 2-1 victory against Orlando City SC. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 50th minute.

ImpactOwusu was the hero for Toronto FC once again, as he came through near the end of the match to score the game-winning goal with a close-range header. Owusu has been one of the best success stories this season, and he has scored five goals over his last six league appearances.

Kobe Franklin - Credited with assist SaturdayFranklin assisted once to go with one cross (one accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 2-1 victory against Orlando City SC.

ImpactFranklin set up the equalizer with a perfect cross from the right flank, and his delivery was nodded home by Tyrese Spicer. This was Franklin's first assist of the season, but he doesn't have much of a role in the attack, meaning his fantasy upside shouldn't be very high going forward.

Tyrese Spicer - Scores late equalizer SaturdaySpicer scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) in Saturday's 2-1 win over Orlando City SC.

ImpactSpicer rose higher than anyone else and scored the equalizer late in the second half following a cross from Kobe Franklin. This was Spicer's second goal of the season, and the midfielder might have done enough to battle for a starting role when Toronto takes on FC Dallas next Saturday.

Federico Bernardeschi - Sets up game-winning goalBernardeschi assisted once to go with two shots (zero on goal), nine crosses (four accurate) and four corners in Saturday's 2-1 win over Orlando City SC.

ImpactBernardeschi set up the game-winning goal with a perfect cross that was nodded home by Prince-Osei Owusu from close range. Plus, the Italian winger also started the sequence that led to Tyrese Spicer's goal. Bernardeschi has yet to score a goal, but he seems to be instrumental in the team's attacking scheme due to his creativity.

Duncan McGuire - Bags goal vs. TorontoMcGuire scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal) in Saturday's 2-1 loss to Toronto FC. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 55th minute.

ImpactMcGuire was at the perfect time and place to bag home Orlando's opening goal following a perfect cross from Facundo Torres. McGuire is picking up right where he left off last season, and the striker has netted four goals across eight appearances (six starts) in 2024, including two in his last three contests.

Sean Johnson - Makes two saves SaturdayJohnson had two saves and allowed one goal in Saturday's 2-1 win versus Orlando City SC. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 93rd minute.

ImpactThere was nothing Johnson could've done to deny Duncan McGuire's goal, as the cultured striker simply had to tap the ball home following an inch-perfect cross from Facundo Torres. However, Johnson was solid the rest of the way, and Orlando's offensive explosion allowed him to earn the win. Johnson should remain between the posts when Toronto takes on FC Dallas next Saturday.
