RECAP: New York City FC 2, HB Koge 0

Four friendlies, four wins, zero goals allowed.

In many ways, Saturday night's 2-0 victory over Danish side HB Koge was more of the same: Patrick Vieira's men controlled possession, dictated pace, and were never truly exposed, save for a couple of skittish moments that reminded us that it's still the preseason.
