Wilder Cartagena - Takes shot in start Cartagena took a shot and won one of three tackles in Saturday's 1-1 draw against D.C. United. He also made a block, three clearances and two interceptions in the match

Impact Cartagena has started each of Orlando's last two league games in midfield, and he was pretty solid on both sides of the ball against D.C. on Saturday. He is not in the team's first-choice XI however, and he's getting the starts now because the club is prioritizing the CONCACAF Champions League at the moment.

Facundo Torres - Takes shot in draw Torres took a shot and created a chance in Saturday's 1-1 draw against D.C. United.

Impact Torres had a bit of a quiet game Saturday before being hooked at halftime. The CONCACAF Champions League seems to be the significant priority for Orlando currently over the start of the MLS campaign.

Derrick Williams - Four interceptions in first start Williams made five clearances, four interceptions and won two of two tackles in Saturday's 1-1 draw against Orlando City.

Impact Williams started his first game for D.C. alongside Steve Birnbaum on Saturday. The pair should likely be the preferred center-back options for the team moving forward.

Impact Ruan made his first appearance for D.C. against his former club in Orlando on Saturday. He seems to be the backup option behind Andy Najar (undisclosed) at right-back to begin the campaign.

Christian Benteke - Takes six shots against Orlando Benteke took six shots (one on target) and won one of one tackles in Saturday's 1-1 draw against Orlando City.

Impact Benteke was very active as a lone striker on Saturday, but he wasn't able to get on the scoresheet himself and score a potential winning goal. He's taken nine shots across his last two games but only one has been on target, so he will hope to be more clinical next weekend against NYCFC.
