Ojeda scores 2 goals, ties a franchise record as Orlando beats Revolution 2-1
Ojeda, on the counter-attack, scored on a first-touch shot off a pass from Iván Angulo to give Orlando a 2-1 lead in the 58th minute.
Ojeda has 12 goals and 10 assists this season and his 22 goal contributions are tied the record set in 2019 by Luís Carlos 'Nani' Almeida da Cunha. Ojeda has 25 career goals and moved past Ricardo 'Kaká' Izecson dos Santos Leite (24) into fifth on the club's all-time regular season list.
Ojeda opened the scoring in the 18th minute, the 26-year-old designated player's 10th consecutive game with a goal contribution. Eduard Atuesta played an arcing pass from beyond midfield to Ojeda, who slipped behind the defense and beat goalkeeper Aljaz Ivacic to the ball and then flicked it into a wide-open net to make it 1-0.
Tomás Chancalay, who replaced Tanner Beason at halftime, faked a shot to freeze the defense and then rolled a shot from the left side of the area inside the near post in the 55th.
Pedro Gallese had two saves for Orlando (10-6-8)
New England (6-10-7)
Orlando City, which snapped an eight-game winless streak at New England on July 13, 2024 with a 3-1 win over the Revs, has won back-to-back at Gillette Stadium.
The Revolution are 6-2-2 with a plus-12 (23-11) goal differential all time at home against Orlando.
The teams played to a 3-3 tie on May 10.

NFL holdouts tracker: Training camps are open, and Jauan Jennings is practicing with 49ers
NFL training camp season is officially upon us, which means holdout/hold-in season is too. Who are the big names who either haven't reported or aren't taking full part in practice while seeking a new contract? Are their situations roiling or boiling? Here's the latest. San Francisco 49ers WR Jauan Jennings Jennings is officially practicing with the 49ers, which indicates he's not planning to hold in. Head coach Kyle Shanahan disputed the report that Jennings had asked for a trade if he didn't get a contract extension. This appears to be settled for the time being as Jennings seeks an extension. Green Bay Packers OL Elgton Jenkins Jenkins was in attendance as Packers reported to camp on Tuesday, but he's not practicing Wednesday with what's being listed as a back injury. [Join or create a Yahoo Fantasy Football league for the 2025 NFL season] Washington Commanders WR Terry McLaurin McLaurin didn't report on Tuesday, and has been replaced on the reserve/did not report list for the time being. After a career year in 2024, he expressed frustration over the negotiations last week. This is something that could derail all the positive momentum in Washington the past two years, and a big one to watch. Dallas Cowboys pass rusher Micah Parsons Parsons reported to camp and isn't technically a hold-in yet, but he had some pointed responses to Jerry Jones' wild media conference from Monday. This deal could have gotten done months ago, but in the interim, Myles Garrett and now T.J. Watt have reset the top end of the pass rush market. This could become the story of NFL training camps this year. Cincinnati Bengals pass rusher Trey Hendrickson Hendrickson left for Florida instead of reporting to Bengals camp over an offer he called "atrociously, atrociously low." Hendrickson, the NFL's reigning sack leader, reportedly wants guaranteed money past the first year, and the Bengals haven't been willing to meet him there in negotiations. Cincinnati Bengals first-round pick Shemar Stewart Stewart is seeking the same contract structure past draft picks, both with Cincinnati and across the league at his draft slot, were given in years past. For that, he was the target of the Bengals brass' ire on Monday. This is arguably the most acrimonious standoff we have right now.

Browns debut atrocious new helmet and jersey combination
Several teams around the NFL have revealed new uniforms over the last several days and weeks. The Buffalo Bills announced the return of the red helmet, and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers revealed a white throwback uniform to go with their throwback helmet. The Cleveland Browns joined in on the festivities, but they crashed the party more than they improved it. Cleveland revealed a dark-colored helmet with dual-orange stripes down the center. The uniforms being paired with the helmets look similar to the color rush uniforms the team sported through the late 2010s and early 2020s. Overall, the look is a bad one, and will certainly continue to be mocked by fans.
