NYCFC's Road Woes Continue, Fall To Rival Philadelphia 1-0

New York. - The Gents in Blue struggled offensively once again at any stadium not called Yankee Stadium as they fell to their Eastern Division rivals the Philadelphia Union by the score of 1-0. It was a huge night for Philly's Alexander Bedoya; scoring his first goal of the season on a header at the 67th minute that proved to be the difference maker and moving the Union into a points tie with NY (albeit with one more match played) on the season. Frankly it was a fantastic bang bang 1 timer from Kai Wagner to Bedoya but it was also a clear miss by Defender Malte Amundsen who was completely unaware that Bedoya was coming up alongside him and knew his mistake immediately based on the reaction.

NYCFC: The Tie That Felt Like A Loss

New York. - Tonight we saw a tale of two halves with the Gents In Blue. A first half that started out as well as could be asked for by jumping out to an immediate 2 goal advantage. First there was Santiago Rodriguez in his first ever start making his presence known by scoring a goal in the 12th minute. Then there was Izzy Tajouri-Shradi with his 7th of the year at the 21st minute, tying him with Medina for the team lead. By the end of the first half it went about as well as could be expected. Then the wheels promptly fell off to start the second half which is where I want to focus my attention; because it's not the points you gain, but the points you DON'T that make a greater difference.
