“Insanity is doing the same thing over and over, and expecting different results”
For the third time in as many games, New York City FC’s free-flowing style of play was brought to its knees by an opponent that ceded possession, clogged the box, committed fouls, and found a way to score. It should come as a surprise that Philadelphia Union followed this game plan on their way to win 2-1 at home in Subaru Park: It’s what they do, and it’s why they now sit on top of the Eastern Conference with only one loss in 16 games played so far this season.
