Against Portland it was a classic accident on the way to NYCFC. The answer that Vieira wanted and all of us is in fact arrived against FC Dallas, a dominated and deservedly won by the City. A demonstration of strength against FC Dallas still unbeaten and that experienced the first defeat at Yankee Stadium.
NYCFC has proved to be one of the best teams in the entire MLS but now comes yet another opportunity to confirm. A very special occasion. The derby is coming, a game different from the others. Not a brilliant season for the Red Bulls, but woe to underestimate them. The derby is a different game, on stage there are the two teams of NYC, there is up for grabs the dominance, being the first team, unique and stronger. A derby also felt very much by the fans who want a victory against eternal rivals. It will therefore be important to get right behind the last victory and the great goal reached by David Villa. Head to the derby, a derby to win.
