Overview: For the second week in a row, New York City FC dominated possession, dictated the pace of the game, and came out the aggressor in terms of attacking play. The key difference: the ball found the back of the net. Again, and again, and again.
New York City FC again played a 4-3-3, just like last week in Orlando, with one major difference: Ethan White replaced R.J. Allen at right back. D.C. United lined up in their typical 4-1-4-1 formation. As mentioned, NYCFC were definitely the aggressor on the day and dictated the pace of play.
