Luis Muriel scored two goals — his first in MLS — and Pedro Gallese stopped a penalty kick in the 88th minute to help Orlando City beat the Philadelphia Union 3-2 Saturday night. Muriel, a 33-year-old Colombian international striker who signed with Orlando City in February, ripped a rising left-footer from outside the area that slipped in the corner of the net to take a 2-1 lead in the 44th minute. Orlando City (3-5-3) snapped a three-game winless streak, including back-to-back losses. Phildelphia had 61.5% possession and outshot Orlando City 29-13, 7-4 on target. Philadelphia (3-3-5) is winless in five consecutive games following a three-game win streak.
