Lampard and Matarrita lead NYCFC to Crucial Road Win

NYCFC – 2

Seattle Sounders FC – 0

Match recap …

Frank Lampard scored his second goal in as many games and Ronald Matarrita scored his first MLS goal to lead New York City FC to a 2-0 win against the Seattle Sounders FC Saturday at CenturyLink Field.

Lampard put NYCFC in front in the 38th minute, turning toward goal and chesting an RJ Allen cross past Sounders goalkeeper Stefan Frei for his second goal in as many games.

Lampard had another chance on the hour mark when he received a square ball by Jack Harrison and turned at the top of the box before his deflected shot resulted in an NYCFC corner.
