NYCFC had two players participating in qualifiers in two separate parts of the world for the World Cup being held in Russia in 2018. In the European theater, we had Maxine Chanot of Luxembourg, who played defense for NYCFC and was last seen being schooled by Toronto’s Sebastian Giovinco and Jozy Altidore in the MLS Cup Playoffs.
His unsporting behavior yellow card in game one was followed by being part of the backline that witnessed a hat trick by Giovinco in a 5-0 rout that completed the New York City outfit’s departure from the postseason.
