Again? We have to play these guys again??
It may as well have been yesterday that Orlando City outclassed NYCFC at Yankee Stadium 2-1. Or that they stupefied the Boys in Blue 1-0 on opening day. Hell, let’s do it one more time and see what happens.
If you’re not excited about this one, though, you’re not wrong. In eight total meetings to date, our fair New York City FC sports just one single win over the Floridians. That win — a 5-3 marvel in the Bronx back in July 2015 — is famous for being the day in which Andrea Pirlo bewitched MLS fans’ collective hearts, coming off the bench to conduct a 30-minute playmaker’s master class.
