Delamea: "We know NYCFC and their strenghts"

Revolution defender Antonio Delamea, who served a red-card suspension with fellow defender Claude Dielna against Colorado, says the club knows how to handle NYCFC.

“We know their strengths, we know their weaknesses. We’ll try to outplay them. First, we’ll try to play soccer with them — try to keep the ball, to play possession,” Delamea said of the Pigeons, who have surrendered one goal and sits atop the league standings.

“We know we need to be sharp to win duels, especially in the midfield. This is where their strength is coming from. If we can cut their midfield off, that will do almost half of our job,” he added.
