Quick Look...

New York City FC fell to a first defeat to the Houston Dynamo on Friday night at the BBVA Compass Stadium.

David Villa had given City the perfect start with a well-taken volley on 6' before Houston rallied and turned the scoreline around with goals on either side of the break from Alejandro Fuenmayor and Tomas Martinez.

Alberth Elis ended NYCFC's resistance with a tap-in with 10' to go after the visitors were caught up the field pressing for an equalizer.
