NYCFC might have fallen short of breaking the club record for consecutive wins but there were still some positives to take from the 3-2 defeat at BC Place.
Despite missing a number of regular starters, Patrick Vieira’s side were excellent in the first half and had chances of their own to win the game in the dying minutes against Vancouver.
One individual who perhaps did not deserve to be on the losing team was Maxime Chanot, the Luxembourgian international defender who has been a rock at the back for NYCFC throughout 2017.
Alongside Alexander Callens, Maxime has been one of the first names of the teamsheet all season long, thanks to his dominant performances at the back, helping the boys in blue to the upper echelons of the Eastern Conference.
