ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) —

Facundo Torres and Duncan McGuire each scored a goal Wednesday night to help Orlando City beat the Philadelphia Union 2-1.

Torres scored on a one-touch finish off a ball played by Luis Muriel to open the scoring in the 57th minute. Then, in the 64th, on the counter-attack, Muriel flicked a perfectly-placed through ball to McGuire, who beat goalkeeper Andre Blake one on one to give Orlando (14-11-7) a 2-0 lead.

Quinn Sullivan put away an entry played by Dániel Gazdag with a one-touch finish from point-blank range for Philadelphia (9-12-10) in the 72nd minute.

Orlando had 55% possession and outshot the Union 20-16, 6-3 on target.

Pedro Gallese had two saves for Orlando City.

Blake stopped four shots for Philadelphia.
