Wow, what a finish to this one. NYCFC played well throughout the match and Ronny Deila’s team had held the Western Conference powerhouse, LAFC, scoreless through 55 minutes. A defensive lapse at the back post would cost NY a goal and even though NYCFC would equalize a late red card changed the expectations and fans would hope to escape LA with a point.
And then the magic happened… Shradi on the back post off a Morales flick header! All three points to the boys in blue.
This week Mike, J.R. (who was in LA to watch this game live) and Mike Allen break it down for you.

NYCFC began their four game road trip with a dominant performance against a weakened Montreal Impact last Saturday in Stade Saputo.

Minnesota United is living large. Their new building, Allianz Field is stunning. The 19,000 plus stadium is pure eye candy. It is a short train ride from the heart of downtown. It sits on the side of an interstate. 96 tap bar, need I say more?
Luckily for NYCFC fans, the team played their best offensive game of the season. Taty Castellanos scored the first for the away team and Ismael Tajouri-Shradi followed it up with a brace, giving NYCFC the much needed point.
Mike and J.R. welcome Chris Jee from The Outfield to break down this game. The guys also listen to post game audio from Dome Torrent, James Sands, Sean Johnson and Alex Ring.

Credit to Mike Coniaris (a name easier to spell than pronounce) for the title, but the tongue in cheek joke is appropriate. NYCFC for the first time in club history has won a playoff round. So in essence, Torrent accomplished something that Vieira failed to do in his two post-season attempts.
This week Mike, J. R. and Nick Chavez break down the game from Halloween night. They also included the post game comments from Alex Ring, Maxime Chanot, Anton Tinnerholm and Sean Johnson.
And lastly, the guys answer your comments and questions.

One thing that NYCFC has succeeded in accomplishing is the identity of a team that finishes the regular season poorly. That has not translated into Post-season success. Dome Torrent hopes that his team can turn around the narrative as they face off against Philadelphia Union on Decision Day.
