The MLS picks up where it left off for New York City FC. The Blues lost again, this time in the most important game of the season against the Red Bulls. Ronny Deila's team played two games in one. In the first half City seemed to have the game in hand. Several chances created by the Blues but they did not manage to find the goal. In the first half, New York City FC seemed to be more brilliant than their opponents and came easily to shoot. But up front, Heber and his teammate never managed to score.
Second half completely different from the first. New York City FC did not return well to the game and the Red Bulls took advantage of it. City felt like they collapsed physically, and the Bulls didn't stand by. They started to attack until they found the goal thanks to Sean Johnson's decisive mistake. Mistakes happen and we don't have to blame Johnson for saving the team with several saves. It is evident, however, that his mistake was decisive, as well as the lack of malice in attack and the drop in physical form that must make us think.
There is really a lot, a lot to work for New York City FC.
