New York City FC fans might be fixated on Monday’s matchup against Inter Miami CF in the MLS Cup Playoffs, but they would be wise to keep an eye on the other two Eastern Conference postseason games taking place this weekend to see which teams will advance to the next round.
We’re not going to jinx NYCFC’s chances by assuming that they’ll coast to a win in the Gender Reveal Derby and advance to the Eastern Conference Semifinals, but should they triumph over David Beckham’s shiny pink toy they’ll play the winner of Sunday’s game between Montréal CF and Orlando City, and could meet the winner of Saturday’s match between New Jersey Red Bulls and FC Cincinnati down the line.
