NYCFC Are Stuck In Neutral and Jillian Sakovits On All Things Atlanta United / Ep 340 / Blue City Radio

Episode 340:

After a two-week break NYCFC returned to the pitch but the time off did not change anything for the team. They conceded a goal three minutes in and failed to challenge Red Bull aside from two or three chances. Overall it was an extremely disappointing match. Mike, J.R. and Mike Allen do their best to talk each other off the ledge as the likelihood than NYCFC might fail to qualify for the playoffs looms.

In the second segment Jillian Sakovits from MLS’s The Call-Up Podcast and Bally Sports down in Atlanta joins the show. She talks Atlanta United coaching changes, soccer culture in the city and of course some very just do praise for Josef Martinez.

This week Mike, J.R. and Mike Allen discuss the game and share some audio from Sean Johnson, Sebastian Ibeagha and Ronny Deila.
