We don't know how much the five changes made by Torrent could have affected. The result, however, is clear: New York City FC was defeated 2-1. The changes of the Spanish coach were forced, as most of the players were injured and others on the bench. What matters in the end, however, is the defeat of the Blues who probably played one of their worst away games of the season.
A game played in low tones and unfortunately characterized by many, many distractions that have heavily influenced the final result. On the first goal the placement of Callens and Ibeagha is wrong, and Minnesota immediately took advantage of taking the lead. The doubling was born of an incredible mistake by Sweat who launched for the second time Rodriguez towards Johnson by signing the second goal. Heavy mistakes that have decided the match.
But the fault is not only defense, even if the mistakes made by individual players have been decisive. The whole team didn't play well. In the first half New York City FC has practically never played, leaving the opponent free. In the second half, only after the expulsion of Warner New York City began to create some danger culminated with the Wallace goal at the end of the time. Too little for a team that aims to end the season in a higher ranking position in view of the playoffs and that instead, especially with the attitude, has proved to be too fragile.
