ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — Luis Muriel scored a goal in each half and Martín Ojeda had a goal and an assist to lead Orlando City to a 4-1 victory over Inter Miami on Sunday night.

Muriel scored in the 2nd minute to give Orlando City (9-6-8) a lead that lasted just three minutes after Yannick Bright scored unassisted for his first career goal in his 40th appearance to pull Inter Miami (12-5-6) even.

Ojeda collected his 13th assist on Muriel’s goal, extending his club-record streak with a goal contribution to 14.

Orlando City took a 2-1 lead five minutes into the second half on Muriel’s unassisted eighth goal of the season.

Ojeda found the net for the 14th time this season to give Orlando City a 3-1 lead in the 58th minute. His 27 goal contributions lead the league.

Marco Pašalić scored unassisted in the 88th minute for a three-goal advantage. It was his 10th goal in his first season in the league.

Pedro Gallese totaled four saves in goal for Orlando City.

Óscar Ustari turned away eight shots for Inter Miami.

Inter Miami superstar Lionel Messi, who is tied with Nashville SC’s Sam Surridge for the league lead with 18 goals, missed the match due to a right leg injury the 38-year-old suffered Aug. 2 in a Leagues Cup match against Necaxa. Messi’s 18 goals have come while playing in 18 of his club’s 23 matches.
