Dome-nant and Dome-nated / Ep 242 / Blue City Radio

Episode 242:

NYCFC would play two very different games this week. Thursday evening at home Dome Torrent’s choices and game plan lead to a dominant performance against Houston. Sunday afternoon NYCFC would head south to the comfort a dome stadium in Atlanta and get dominated.

Burn the Tape / Ep 241 / Blue City Radio

Episode 241:

NYCFC once again failed to beat Real Salt Lake despite taking an early lead. Does this sound like 2017 all over again? It wasn’t Ugo Okoli getting the fourth minute goal this time, but rather captain Alex Ring with a left-footed laser past Nick Rimondo. Unfortunately for NYCFC, Ring would lead the team in shots as the rest of the offense struggled to get much else going against the stingy home defense.

Meanwhile in the midfield…

Let’s face it, NYCFC did not have much midfield play. The team looked over run in the middle third and bereft of solutions. This week Mike, Jon, J.R. and Mike Allen look at the errors and miscues in another lackluster performance against RSL. They also look at the poor history NYCFC has in the month of August.
