New York has not been kind to Columbus Crew SC this month. After what was one of the more exciting matches of the season, Crew SC fell 3-2 to NYCFC after giving up 2 goals late in the match.
Columbus Crew SC continued their unfortunate trend of falling behind early in the match, giving up the first goal less than 8 minutes into the match to NYCFC after an ugly pass from Crew defender Raitala. Columbus would then rally with goals from Higuain and Kamara to take a 2-1 lead, but ultimately 2 late goals from New York City FC would give the Crew their first home loss of the season.
