Orlando City South Carolina defeats West Brom in 3-1 win

Former AC Milan and Real Madrid star Kaka chose to show West Brom that “he’s still got it” with a stunning goal in last night’s pre-season friendly.

Earlier, Callum McManaman’s deflected strike gave the visitors the lead in the 14th minute, with the ball coming off Aurelien Collin and wrong-footing goalkeeper Donovan Ricketts.

West Bromwich Albion probably wouldn’t have been able to contain Kaka when he was in his prime, so the Premier League club shouldn’t feel bad about conceding this goal.

Newly-minted MLS All-Star Kaka tied the match in first half stoppage time, while Carlos Rivas scored in the 49th minute to put the Lions ahead.

The victory marked the Lions’ third win in nine worldwide friendlies against high level teams in five years – previously defeating Newcastle United 1-0 and Brazilian Serie A side Ponte Preta 3-2 at the Citrus Bowl.

After the game Baggies manager Tony Pulis accepted his side lacked the necessary match-fitness to challenge a team who are in the middle of their domestic season.

Things got worse for West Brom as the game wore on in 28-degree heat, a defence-splitting pass gifting Rochez a one-on-one with Myhill that he easily dispatched.

“It’s a good workout for the lads and they are absolutely shattered in there”.
