While the regular season has come and gone and the playoffs await for New York City FC, fans can breathe a sigh of relief: the Pigeons finished the regular season with a 4-2-1 record.
In five of those games, including four straight, the team was without their top goalscorer, Héber, who revolutionised the team upon his late arrival earlier in the season.
Early in September, head coach Domènec Torrent revealed that the Brazilian would ‘miss at least three or four weeks.’ At the time, Héber had 14 goals to his name.
