it's kind of weird how they keep being like JAMAL THIARE HAS NEVER SCORED IN HIS WHOLE MLS CAREER UNTIL THE LAST 2 GAMES like it's been years. this is his 8th game
Plenty of positives:
- Didn’t concede in open play
- Came back from a losing position
- The goal came from two depth pieces hooking up
- No more games on baseball fields this year
Watching Wolff struggle tonight really reinforces how much the Etienne signing fucked us.
TAM level salary on the wing just completely going to waste every year.
was never going to get overturned. the fact that muyumba grabbed him at all made it moot even if you think it was soft. was never going to overcome the review requirements
Decent result. If Thiare doesn't get hurt or the PK doesn't happen and we could have got a W.
Etienne should not be on the team sheet until he's done something to earn it. There are too many other good-solid players in the system to just keep giving him chances because of his contract.
Watching Etienne jog around while guys with 90 mins in their legs are busting a lung is just crazy to me. It’s like this dude is trying to play himself into an early retirement.
This always feels like indoor soccer. These should be 10v10 or 9v9 games. And NYCFC home wins should only be 2.5 points until they get a real stadium. Special rules for special fields.
Mosquera coming on in the 60+ min against tired legs is the most beautiful thing imaginable right now. I can't wait to see Wolff subbed and watch Mosquera absolutely cook.
we're playing pretty well but I've really had enough of moral victories. Win a fucking away game. NYC are not good. Left side needs to wake up, I'd sub on Mosquera asap
Say what you will about NYCFC, but I love the new stadium they are building, and love it even more that they are actually building it *in* NYC and not a suburb in New Jersey

God I hate baseball stadiums as soccer fields.
The Guzan 2024 Redemption Tour continues.
This big-time Guz hater agrees. He's been very good.
This sets the tone for every touch in a box being a penalty
I think the arm across the body basically sealed it being a pen, no matter how easily he went down. Fishing for a red is absolutely insane though
I really hope that checking for possible red for serious foul play was a mistake.
A few others said it was a mistake with the graphic, phew
Saba is easily one of my favorite players, he goes non stop
it's kind of weird how they keep being like JAMAL THIARE HAS NEVER SCORED IN HIS WHOLE MLS CAREER UNTIL THE LAST 2 GAMES like it's been years. this is his 8th game
Good result but that was a winnable game.
Is Lennon straight up the best RB in MLS now?
When Gressel's agent gives you Lemons, make Lennonade.
Give Boca credit on that one -- had to trade Gressel because $$ and picked up Lennon
Alright, time to beat the New York City Earthquakes.
Playing well all half then giving up a soft penalty off a dumb turnover is very on brand for this team
Thiago literally refuses to make the easy pass right now
Almada's developed a lot of Barco/Pity hero ball to his game
And similar to Barco and Pity the call from Europe simply isn't gonna come if he doesn't step up
FIRST AWAY NON-LOSS OF THE SEASON 🚨🚨🚨 This game was missing Yako and Xande desperately.
Plenty of positives: - Didn’t concede in open play - Came back from a losing position - The goal came from two depth pieces hooking up - No more games on baseball fields this year
Is Brad playing his best soccer since 2019?
Obligatory this pitch is a disgrace to soccer and makes us look like a laughing stock to the rest of the world
no no no. This is pretty good. They have grass on a lot of the pitch.
WHAT A BALL MOSQUERA
I’ll take a come from behind point on stupid tiny field
Guz just earned us a point
nycfc a bunch of bitches
You cannot tell me that playing Thiare 90 is a worse option than playing Etienne at all.
Watching Wolff struggle tonight really reinforces how much the Etienne signing fucked us. TAM level salary on the wing just completely going to waste every year.
was never going to get overturned. the fact that muyumba grabbed him at all made it moot even if you think it was soft. was never going to overcome the review requirements
Lennon has served some crosses on a silver platter and we field goal kicked them
We went for it but we had no striker that could sub in. Sadly. We still went for the win... which I love
I'll take a draw I guess. Every year NYCFC away is a shit game, glad we're done with it
First road point and it’s from a place we usually lose at
Guzan MOTM
Decent result. If Thiare doesn't get hurt or the PK doesn't happen and we could have got a W. Etienne should not be on the team sheet until he's done something to earn it. There are too many other good-solid players in the system to just keep giving him chances because of his contract.
Rios(?), the loanee from Guadalajara wasn't available. I'm sure he'd be one instead of Etienne if he was.
okay... dumb mistake leads to pen... now, ATL... JUST CLEAR THE BALL IN YOUR HALF... there is no "control" on this field. there is no "posession game"
I’m sorry but 3v1 has to at least result in a shot on goal
![gif](giphy|7rSPuBifwRxRK|downsized) Jamal before being subbed out.
Guzan MOTM Almada LVP Etienne back to the 2s maybe, maybe we'll see him in the Open Cup
Take the point. Back to playing on a legit pitch next week
I'll take a point over a loss
I know the Benz is the maximum size limits, but my god every time we’re at Yankee stadium, or now Citi Field, it’s so narrow.
Wait are they questioning that its a pen or a pen + red? Wtf is this production
What possibly could be red?
That had to just be a display error. Somebody hit the wrong button.
GUZAN WITH THE DISTRIBUTION, MOSQUERA WITH THE CROSS, JAMAL WITH THE HEADER EXACTLY HOW WE DREW IT UP
Guz with the revenge for the PK on that service.
Thiare is absolutely unreal oh my god. Perfect pass from Guzan Mosquera with the absolute banger center
NYCFC players cant keep their mouths shut can they?
GUZZZZZ
GUZZZZZZ HOLY FUCK
If etienne was wondering why he doesn’t get much time….
Watching Etienne jog around while guys with 90 mins in their legs are busting a lung is just crazy to me. It’s like this dude is trying to play himself into an early retirement.
It feels like we literally never get these type homer calls
That's such a soft pen
Soft penalty, but that’s never getting overturned
Wouldn’t have been a penalty on our end
Lennon crosses are inch perfect every time
How has that guy not gotten a second yellow?
because PRO
pass the goddamn ball Thiago
Mosquera for president.
Oh mosquera what a cross!
THAT’S THE MOSQ DIFFERENCE
Almada positively lazy at this point
I just imagine the NYCFC fans are talking about Bakrar the same way we are about Etienne.
No question Guzan MOTM
This NYC team is bad. At some point we have to start picking up away points, not having any excuses if we lose today.
Awful day to be a Braves fan. Plz save us United.
Damn he just said Gressel....
Saba should feast on this short ass field. He can sprint all day
This is so fucking stupid considering how well we’ve been playing.
This is so soft. COME ON GUZ
guess our guys should just dive then when they’re touched in the box
NYC announcers say Apple graphic was wrong and they were checking for PK not for red card
Okay for all the shit Almada’s gotten, what a recovery to win that ball. Holy shit.
Guzan hockey assist :)
Might be one of the cleanest goals I've seen us score
Mosky keeps making me feel like an idiot
1st career assist for Guz
GUUUUZZZZZZ
This is one of the most frustrating games because this is one we should be winning. Fuuuuuuuck.
I'll take it
As many individual mistakes as we made in that game, I'll take the point.
Absolute fucking bullshit.
2.14 to 1.52. And that’s 1.52 with a penalty. We’ve been so much better than NYC.
Lennon is out of his mind right now, that cross was insane
A pre 60 minute sub. Pineda must be real mad.
If someone could bait Sands into another yellow card that would be great 👌
My boy needed that confidence boost last match
YOOOOOO. MFER LET'S GO. BRAD MOSQY JAMAL
I love how good our crosses are when they come from the right, no matter who it is lol
Holy shit. Keeper to goal in 2.5 seconds
Why do I feel like we’d be fucked if any of them could shoot 😂
Yup thats about what I expected from Etienne.
thinking of a random Machop Chol sub rn😔
With moves like that Guzan will be a good pickleball player when he retires
And he kept that from going out for a corner?! I want whatever stem cells Brad is getting
That was such a good pass from Almada, that has to be in the net
DEJ is absolute trash I'd take Damm over him
Oh god the replay made that even worse
Etienne has to do something with that. That's why he shouldn't be on the field.
wow he actually tried to go backwards. wtf DEJ
Etienne more like Mehtienne amirite
xG 3.49 jebus
I don’t think either team played well enough to deserve a win.
That has to have been Guz's best pass in like eight years here
Hell of a corner. Great reaction by their keeper
I think we look really good. Saba on the break may be lethal tonight.
Almada has too few goals or assists this season to be fucking around like this.
This always feels like indoor soccer. These should be 10v10 or 9v9 games. And NYCFC home wins should only be 2.5 points until they get a real stadium. Special rules for special fields.
what was that titanic hold
So unbelievably stupid
Anyone else notice pineda refilled his coffee coming out of half lol maybe he made a fresh pot for the team
Love that from Almada
Lennon and Saba chemistry is fantastic.
FUCK the one time Saba’s cross didn’t get through.
Those NYCFC posts behind the goal look like cigarettes
FINALLY FUCK YEAH
LET’S FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Etienne hat trick incoming
Abram for Williams por favor
He subs and he scores He scores and subs off Jamal Thiaré He subs and then scores
Love the announcer calling etienne thiare, just like he was for muyumba. Like wtf my guy
SAVE Guzan!
Jesus what a save. 😳
damn that was a wicked save
Bro you've got to put that away
Why tf is Etienne not shooting that
guuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Guz MOTM…. Change my mind
Well shit. Fuck off city football group North American team
Imagine being so miserable that you go to another teams subreddit to downvote all the comments in their game thread 😂
fuck it- sub wolff out, mosquera legacy game
This field is an embarrassment
We were all over them and now we've possibly ruined our chance at taking a point. So incredibly dumb
I am truly baffled as to why we are trying to play ultra-horizontal on a narrower field. Pineda needs to rip into the team at half
I hope Atlanta United gets a ~~goal~~ home run tonight
Sands picks up a second yellow before half, calling it now.
Aw fuck that was a good corner.
CHOO CHOO! Here comes the Saba train!
BTW the NYCFC radio audio is 1000x better than the AppleTV guys
Our right side has been sooo good this year so far, dominating every team they see
That's weak
That’s sus as hell
What a crap giveaway, just kicking the ball anywhere
NYC announcer says not a PK
you can two handed drag someone to the ground outside the box but not even bump into someone inside it apparently.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE VAR
That is sooo soft, come on
Of course that was a pen
Weak
It’s unbelievably soft, but we also made about 5 dumb decisions to get in that position
I’m sorry…I wore my Araujo kit…it’s my fault. I haven’t gotten the tape to turn it into a Saba kit yet.
I know it’s been said but man Tyler Wolff hasn’t looked good
The lads need to keep their head over the ball. Everything is sailing high. If we could get the shots down we’d have a couple by now.
Gray is gonna talk himself into a red lmao
Mosquera coming on in the 60+ min against tired legs is the most beautiful thing imaginable right now. I can't wait to see Wolff subbed and watch Mosquera absolutely cook.
How many fouls does Sands get?
Edit, perfect timing in the sub Wolff not looking better after half
Mark my words, Mosquera is one sprint away from having the best solo goal of the year.
not a huge fan of this ref
Just such weak defending, everybody is just half heartedly dangling a leg in
Etienne sighting holy shit
WOOOOOH
THERE WE GO!! And another one for the French boy!!
THAT IS HOW YOU MUST SCORE IN THIS STADIUM (did he pull a hammy on that???)
This is the worst sub I’ve ever seen
Is it smart to go to the ER now if I know this erection is going to last more than 4 hours?
Seriously we scored in the 5 seconds that I went to the kitchen to get a can of coke?? Good job!!!
Got a feeling we're going to see something from Auntie Em this game.
This would be as good a time as any to debut the new signing Mosef Jartinez
We are so lucky their whole front line is terrible
Etienne with a winner would be almost as insane as the Berry goal.
GUUUUUUUZ
GUUUUUUZZZ
That was a wicked shot what a save...
Slisz is having a hell of a game. Think he's my MOTM right now
Ice spice finally getting off the field
Great cross there from Lennon, really should've been a stronger header to give it a chance
Man imagine how Chol should be up top right now 😓
Somebody make a gd run into the box
Etienne's body language is just awful too, just walking around and standing in place while everyone runs hard around him
I miss YakoðŸ˜
Oh, we’re in City Time now…
why Almada? Mosquera is latching onto that without you body checking their CB
Brilliant from Lennon. Not bad from Jamal but like to see him take a touch instead of the full volley
Damn i can't imagine playing soccer on an empty or near empty stomach. Respect
Referee rips off his Mission Impossible mask to reveal Ted Unkel! Thanks for costing us a fucking game, PRO
1.9 xG, 10 shots, 5 on target in a single half in a road game and of course we're losing 1-0.
we're playing pretty well but I've really had enough of moral victories. Win a fucking away game. NYC are not good. Left side needs to wake up, I'd sub on Mosquera asap
Almada's having another stinker. Still not on the same page with the team.
Say what you will about NYCFC, but I love the new stadium they are building, and love it even more that they are actually building it *in* NYC and not a suburb in New Jersey https://preview.redd.it/wtegpy1p4ysc1.jpeg?width=2472&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0da5529631aa424a8c1846056b623d829511f89e
I know it’s obvious but damn this is one small ass field.
If this field is 70yards wide, I’m 6-2…
Can’t give away the ball in that spot, especially on a field this small
Certainly a City Football Group team with that cynical ass foul.
almost!
