Orlando City 3 West Brom 1 - report and pictures

Albion led their second pre-season friendly thanks to Callum McManaman's 14th minute opener.

But Kaka ran 40 yards just before half-time and punished poor Baggies defending to put the MLS side level at the break.

And Carlos Rivas scored a brilliant free-kick early into the second half to give Orlando the lead before Bryan Rochez completed the scoring late on.

There was an early scare for the Baggies when Bryan Rochez latched onto a long ball and poked it past the advancing Boaz Myhill, but Craig Dawson got back to seize on the striker's heavy second touch.

Kaka showed a classic change of pace in the sixth minute and Gareth McAuley's late challenge on the Brazilian earned him a rare pre-season booking.

But it was the visitors who had the better of the early play and they went ahead on 14 minutes through McManaman.

He collected a diagonal pass and cut in from the left flank before bending a right-footed shot past a flat-footed Donovan Ricketts in the Orlando goal and into the bottom corner.

Amobi Okugo blocked a goal-bound header from Brown Ideye from a cross by James McClean while McManaman, who had looked bright, saw another left-wing cross claimed well by Ricketts.

Some smart work by Baggies captain Darren Fletcher then gave McManaman a chance to try his luck from 25 yards but his effort was a long way off target.

Albion had enjoyed the majority of possession but the game turned with two fabulous goals either side of half-time from the hosts.

The first owed something to poor Baggies defending as they presented Kaka with a gaping gap in their back four, but the Brazilian still produced a wonderful 40-yard run, a fine change of pace to get away from McAuley and an emphatic finish from 15 yards.

Then, just four minutes after the restart, there was little the Baggies could do to prevent the second goal as Rivas unleashed a fabulous free-kick from 25 yards that arrowed into the top corner of Myhill's net.

Both sides made changes which prevented any flow in the game, but Albion won a free-kick on the edge of the area when Tommy Redding was booked for dragging down fellow substitute Victor Anichebe.

Another replacement, Craig Gardner, struck the set piece but saw it strike team-mate Craig Dawson in the wall and deflect for a goal-kick.

Gardner went closer with a shot from distance in open play that substitute goalkeeper Earl Edwards tipped over.

Morrison sent a dipping volley just over from 25 yards with five minutes remaining, but a minute later Rochez sealed the win for Orlando as he latched onto a fine pass from Pedro Ribeiro and fired low past Myhill.

In the dying seconds, McClean hit a shot from an Albion corner that was blocked on the line, but the Baggies could not find a way back into the game.
