He surpassed Gallese: Alexander Callens scored the goal for New York City vs. Orlando City.

Peruvian footballer, Alexander Callens, managed to open the scoring for New York City vs. Orlando City in the MLS match.

The defender of the Peruvian National Team has become a key player for his team, New York City FC, since his arrival in 2017. Now, he not only stands out for his great actions preventing goals, but also for scoring them.

The action took place in the 66th minute. Orlando City was winning by one goal when Callens scored. NYC had full possession of the ball and was approaching the area with ferocity.

Santiago Rodríguez tried on the right side, but failed, and then Maximiliano Moralez played with Gabriel Pereira.

After that, the Brazilian tried to support himself with Keaton Parks and then with Talles Magno, who managed to finalize the play after applying pressure and sending a cross that was taken advantage of by the Peruvian footballer for the equalizing goal.

Pedro Gallese's goal could have remained tied, but Talles Magno scored the second goal with the help of Moralez and Pereira, surpassing the Peruvian National Team's goalkeeper.

The victory positioned New York City in the MLS Play-Offs, as they finished 3rd in the Eastern Conference with 52 points.

It should be noted that Orlando City's goal was scored by Facundo Torres in NYC's final triumph in the 33rd match of the Major League Soccer. Gallese's team finished sixth with 45 points.
