Orlando City have earned a point at home to Columbus Crew in an entertaining 2-2 draw.

The visitors dominated in the opening stages as Federico Higuain went close from long range and Kei Kamara had a lot shot saved.

They took the lead a couple of minutes later as an unmarked Tony Tchani nodded in Higuain's cross.

Orlando replied quickly as Michael Parkhurst conceded a penalty for handball on the line and was subsequently sent off. Kaka levelled the scores with an imperious finish from the spot.

The hosts started the second period on top as Cyle Larin went close with a header, but they fell behind again just after the hour mark as Kamara netted his 10th goal of the season with a neat header from six yards.

Eric Avila, Seb Hines and Lewis Neal all went close to an equaliser for Orlando, but they had to wait until the 89th minute as Pedro Ribeiro smashed a left-footed shot into the back of the net from 25 yards.
