ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — César Araújo and Dagur Thórhallsson each scored their first Major League Soccer goal and Orlando routed Toronto FC 4-0 on Tuesday night.
Orlando (9-5-7) is unbeaten in its last seven regular-season matches against Toronto, including winning both meetings last season. It’s the first time the Lions have gone unbeaten in seven straight against a single opponent.
Araújo opened the scoring in the 16th minute with a diving header of Rafael Santos’ cross. Rookie Duncan McGuire made it 2-0 in the 22nd by poking in a deflected cross for his seventh goal of the season.
Thórhallsson scored in the 77th by beating Toronto goalkeeper Greg Ranjitsingh to a through ball and sending it into an empty net. Ercan Kara added another goal in the 84th minute off a back-heel pass from Martín Ojeda.
Toronto (3-9-10) is winless in 14 straight away matches.
