Frank Lampard wants to hand Patrick Vieira a huge boost ahead of the final game of the MLS regular season.
NYCFC’s second top-scorer has confirmed that he’s hoping to be back in contention for Sunday’s showdown with Columbus Crew SC following the thigh strain which has seen him sit out the last three matches.
With the playoffs looming, Lampard is eager to return to the field to help his teammates sure up second spot and a place in the Eastern Conference Semifinals.
Vieira’s men know that a win will be enough to earn a bye and avoid the Knockout Rounds.
