It’s Matchday 6, and New York City FC play Real Salt Lake at Yankee Stadium at 1 pm ET.
As good a way to spend Easter Sunday as any.
NYCFC are coming off a scintillating but ultimately disappointing 1-1 draw against Seattle Sounders in the CONCACAF Champions League. Don’t let the scoreline fool you: New York City thoroughly outplayed Seattle, and played their best football of the year in the second half. The NYCFCF faithful would like more of that, please.
Now that cross-conference play is back in MLS, we find ourselves pulling dusty old binders off the shelf to look up information about teams NYCFC rarely play, such as Real Salt Lake.
