New York City FC fans who were planning to attend Saturday's game against the Columbus Crew will have to make other plans. The club announced that the match had been postponed. It will be rescheduled for Wednesday, September 17. That means the Pigeons will have to wait to try and rebound after the Leagues Cup loss against Deportivo Toluca FC.
NYCFC will not play a game this weekend
This announcement was unexpected, but NYCFC revealed the reason why the game had to be moved. Per the club, the fixture could not be played this weekend because "required field maintenance at Citi Field" is needed.
