NYCFC Goals: Villa 48', Brillant 51'
Chicago Goals: Accam 54'
A Quick Look
A red card to Yangel Herrera just past the ten-minute mark and a first half injury substitution forced NYCFC to think on their feet on a hot summer afternoon at Yankee Stadium.
A flurry of second half goals, including a beautiful volley from David Villa and a scrappy header from Frederic Brillant, put a 10-man NYCFC side up 2-0 after the break, before a long-range strike from David Accam halved the margin.
What Happened
NYCFC got off to a bright start in their second match in four days, dominating possession in the attacking half through the early minutes.
