Orlando City SC lost 2-0 to CF Montréal on Saturday at Stade Saputo, conceding both goals in stoppage time after a long, scoreless, blue-ballin’ 90 minutes.

Montréal received a penalty kick in second-half stoppage time that Daniel Ríos converted in the 90th minute. Four minutes later, former Lion (but we still love him even if we’re mad at him right now) Dagur Dan Thórhallsson won possession in midfield, drove forward, and fired a long-range strike that hit the far post and went in to seal the win.

Orlando City captain Robin Jansson made his 200th MLS regular-season appearance for the Lions, extending his status as the club’s all-time leader in appearances.

The shutout was the first time in six games across all competitions that the Lions were held scoreless. The loss drops Orlando City to 3-8-1 with 10 points. CF Montréal improves to 4-7-0 with 12 points.

Orlando City returns home Wednesday, May 13, to host the Philadelphia Union at Inter&Co Stadium.
