NYCFC Gets A Much Needed Rebound Win – Overtake Montreal 1-0

New York. - The Gents From New York managed to get their revenge on Montreal in front of 2,873 at “home” after that horrific match two weeks with one of the unlikeliest of goals a team can score. With the game of course knotted at 0-0 NY Goalkeeper (and winner of his first game) Luis Barraza took a goal kick from his six yard line. On the ensuing bounce, it confused Defender Zorhan Bassong allowing Ismael Tajouri-Shradi enough time to lob the ball over Montreal Goalkeeper James Pantemis head and into the net. Was it pretty? Nope. But does it count? Absolutely yes, and that's what matters most. In the end, this was the difference maker; however as always there's room for improvement.

NYCFC Drops Another One, Despite Doing Nearly Everything Right

New York. - So I just finished the press conference for the Gents In Blue and the single word I would use it is Bewilderment. Coach Ronny Delia and Anton Tinnerholm handled a press conference that should by all accounts should have been a celebratory one. New York out shoots Columbus on the road by a whopping 21-6. 7-3 on goal, 7-1 corner kicks and over 60% possession. Yet in the end the only number that matters is their 2-1 loss to Columbus. This was one of those games where NY should have scored 4, 5 goals or more; a theme I've mentioned for more than one game this season. But credit where it's due, Columbus Goalkeeper Eloy Room and his defenders all had a tremendous game tonight. Fits aplenty for all Gents In Blue. However I really thought tonight might been the night where Taty Castellanos might FINALLY get that goal he's been due for. Since scoring four goals in his first four games he's been largely silent; raising questions as to whether the weight of that contract might be part of the reason he's been pressing. Tonight Taty had a full three brilliant opportunities to end that streak; including a point blank header with half the goal available; only to knock it wide. As Heber is recovering from his ACL injury one has to wonder if and how much playing time that might take from Taty if he can't find the back of the net.

NYCFC: Sorry Gents, You Won't Make The Playoffs With Matches Like That

New York. - First off, let me start off by saying that I was looking forward to this match tonight. That was a long 10 day break but this was a team that went 3-1 in it's last 4, including a huge come from behind win on the road in DC United to go into this break. I missed rooting for this team; I'm a Yankee fan as well and need a team right now that gives me hope. This match did not give me said hope. They were going up against a streaking Montreal team (currently playing in Florida ATM) that's gone 2-0-2 in their last four matches and surrendering only one goal during that stretch, playing low scoring, methodical soccer, some would even say BORING soccer that's led them to scoring two goals in a match only once since May 1. And scoring chances tonight for the Gents In Blue were few and far between, in part due to the curious exclusion of both Thiago Andrade and Jesus Medina until the 72nd and 81st minute respectively. Andrade is riding a hot streak and Medina is at 5 goals so puzzling to say the least. By the time you put Medina in there, the team was already down a goal; you got to put the man in sooner than that.

NYCFC Come Out Of The Break, Lose A Winnable Game

New York. - I hate it when I'm right sometimes. If you ask my wife it doesn't happen often, but it does happen on occasion. Watching last night's 3-2 loss by NYCFC as they (and Black Players For Change/team captain Sean Johnson celebrated Juneteenth, RESPECT) to the New England Revolution I kept thinking I hate it when I'm right. This team had the momentum, they had the chance to take an early lead and set the tone. In the first 20 minutes, A penalty kick by Castellanos in the 12th minute with a save by Revolution goalie Matt Turner (I'll discuss him in a bit) as well as 2 more on target by the 21st minute and this game had the makings of an impressive win; or a heartbreaking loss. With the team playing downhill and New England still without a shot of any kind by the 25th minute I remember commenting to my fellow Spanglish Sports World journalist Robin that giving up a goal after that kind of output is the absolute most emotionally crushing thing that can happen to a team. Fast forward LITERALLY 2 minutes later on a right foot volley by Revolution forward Gustavo Bou and just like that, NY is down 1-0. I hate when I'm right sometimes. Or maybe I'm just bad luck, they are 0-2-1 in the last three games I've been in the press box, I dunno.

The 3 Week Layoff: Past, Present and Future

New York. - Hang in there diehard NYCFC fans, the wait is almost over. The three week layoff before the season starts again is coming to an end. Let's recap: When last we left the team they came off an impressive come from behind 2-1 win over LAFC on the road to snap a 3 game winless streak, bringing their record to 3-2-2 & good for 4th place in the East. That game, as I covered a few weeks back was as big a win as head coach Ronny Delia has had since taking over at the start of last year, with them trailing 1 nil until the 70th minute, then a goal by Medina (his team leading 5th of the year) and a shorthanded goal at the 90th minute by Ismael Tajouri-Shradi pulled victory from the jaws of defeat. Holy Hannah, if they lost that game, 3 week breaks like this can be brutal to the psyche of a team.

Huge Win For NYCFC To Go Into The Break

New York. - After the past two MLS weekends, if there was a team that needed a win to go into the break it was NYCFC. The last two games saw disappointment for the gents in blue as they lost the lead in the second half not once but both games, turning a possible 6 points down to a measly single point. Against LA FC not only got that much needed win, but this time with a comeback win of their own, scoring a tiebreaker late while in fact being a man down.
