Some teams looked the part in Week 3 of MLS play. New York City FC and Sporting Kansas City continued to look like two of the best teams in the league while the New York Red Bulls followed up their thrashing of the Portland Timbers with a dud in Salt Lake City. The Dynamo looked stellar but again but couldn’t hold off a resurgent D.C. United. But who jumped up in our Power Rankings and who dropped deeper into an early-season hole?
NYCFC were down David Villa and Anton Tinnerholm but capitalized on two Orlando City mistakes to seal the team’s third victory in three weeks.
