Supporters will remember that New York City FC was supposed to play the Columbus Crew back in August. Instead, poor pitch conditions at Citi Field led to the game’s postponement. Now, the Pigeons will face the Ohio side in a midweek battle. Plus, the match will take place at Yankee Stadium instead.
The game was supposed to be the first one back after the Leagues Cup. At that time, the Crew had a 2-2-1 record in their last five Major League Soccer matches. Now, the team has a 1-2-2 record in their last five.
