New York City FC came tantalizingly close to exorcising two ghosts: last weekend’s historic beating at the hands of the Red Bulls and their home woes that went back a lot further than that. Then came a last-minute gut punch that left them with a 2-2 draw against Orlando City SC that will feel a lot more like a loss.
They had the better of play and were on the verge of a win that would have sent them atop the Eastern Conference. But that’s when they coughed up Kevin Molino’s last-ditch equalizer in the 94th minute, seconds away from victory.
