“Knee-Jerk Reactions” is Hudson River Blue’s series of what we were thinking throughout the match. These were our unfiltered thoughts as they played out in real time — no editing, no revisions. Just raw, pure emotion.

Here were my reactions to New York City FC’s 1-0 loss to the New England Revolution

First Half

1’: Please don’t tell me Mata is already hurt?

5’: That was close

9’: C’mon, Taty. That’s gotta be a goal

14’: Armando Villareal should’ve played the advantage there.
