It’s done. New York City won their first road game of the year. But that wasn’t the big news of the night; the big news was David Villa’s goal in the 90th minute. More on that anon.
In my preview, I mentioned that tonight’s game was the definition of a trap game: clearly, the Union are a bad team, but they’re not so bad that they couldn’t defeat a team like New York City, particularly if the Blues left a lot of chances on the table.
Granted: Philadelphia was never really in the game.
