On September 5, Antoine Griezmann scored the only goal for Orlando City in a 1-0 victory over San Diego FC during his first MLS season. However, the French star's biggest struggle came after a goal that seemed to bring little relief. At Inter&Co Stadium in Florida, temperatures reached around 95°F with high humidity, making conditions especially challenging for the players.
Griezmann, known for his World Cup winning experience, was seen wearing towels over his hair and neck to combat the sweat. His visibly exhausted look became an online sensation, with fans joking that he was "fighting for his life." Despite the humidity, which slows down sweat evaporation, Griezmann continued to make an impact. In his eight games this season, he has scored five goals.
Despite the grueling conditions, Orlando City secured all three points, adding another highlight to Griezmann's growing MLS résumé.
