Martin Perelman insisted that Orlando City SC remain fully focused on reaching the MLS playoffs this season after ending their four-match winless stretch in midweek. Orlando had lost three of their last four matches going into their clash with Charlotte FC, while also conceding 13 goals, but they got themselves back on track in some style.Martin Ojeda's brace helped the Lions to a 4-1 victory over Dean Smith's side at Inter&Co Stadium, with Luis Otavio and Ignacio Gomez also on target for Orlando. Orlando have taken seven points from their opening nine games, finding themselves down in 12th in the Eastern Conference. Perelman, however, believes the team have turned a corner in recent weeks, suggesting they will be back challenging at the right end of the table in the future."I think the team is in process. We've been talking about it all week. The important thing is the performance," Perelman said."It's hard to say that when you lose like two days ago and easier to say it when you win, but for me the message is the same."We are working, the team is growing, the players are giving an amazing effort, and we didn't win the league today, and we didn't lose it two days ago."This is a long season. What matters is where we stand at the end. That is our mindset."Orlando will be hoping to put together back-to-back victories for the first time this season when they make the trip to Audi Field where they face struggling D.C. United. Rene Weiler's side are enduring a winless run of their own, going five matches without tasting victory, though their latest MLS fixture provided a lot of entertainment. They played out an eight-goal thriller with the New York Red Bulls in midweek, coming from behind twice at Sports Illustrated Stadium to draw the game 4-4. D.C. had failed to score in their previous four matches leading up to their stalemate with NYRB, and Weiler urged his team to continue firing in the final third.When asked what his team would need to take from their latest result, Weiler said: "We must not stop scoring goals. We have to get the victory that we are looking for."Weiler did, however, acknowledge the test his team would face, highlighting a change in approach by Orlando, who appointed Perelman in March after sacking Oscar Pareja. "I think they [Orlando] will be more compact because of the change of coach and the players will not want to show their best side to the new coach," Weiler added. "But, in the end, I am more focused on our game rather than the game of the opponent. I am hoping we can show some progress from the game against New York."PLAYERS TO WATCHD.C.
