New York City Football Club will seek a return to winning ways at home as they take on MLS expansion side Atlanta United on Sunday afternoon.
Patrick Vieira’s side responded to a disappointing 2-1 defeat at home to Orlando, which ended NYCFC’s unbeaten home record this season, with an impressive 3-2 victory at the Columbus Crew as they battled back from a 2-1 deficit to claim all three points.
The manager was pleased with his side’s mentality throughout their previous match.
“The second half in Columbus really pleased me because we were brave, we pressed them really high,” Vieira said.
