It’s Match Day 33, and New York City FC are hosting Orlando City at the extended stay efficiency apartment that is Red Bull Arena.
NYCFC are feeling good after two consecutive wins at home. First, there was the decisive 2-0 win over Liga MX champions Atlas FC in the Campeones Cup. Then there was the crystal-clear 2-0 win over an arrogant and ill-prepared New Jersey Red Bulls in the Hudson River Derby.
New York City clinched a playoff spot last night without stepping on the field when FC Cincinnati’s posted a shock loss to Chicago Fire.
