Since the Columbus Crew lost at Yankee Stadium 2-0 to New York City FC on May 14, both teams have gone through changes. City lost 2021 MLS Golden Boot winner Valentiu0144 Castellanos, who left for a loan with Girona of Spain’s La Liga. On the other side, the Black & gold added Designated Player forward Cucho Hernández.
Heading into Saturday, the defending MLS Cup champions have a seven-match unbeaten run, even with the loss of Castellanos, but that doesn’t mean everything is great with New York City. To discuss how the Pidgeons have changed since May, Massive Report spoke with Oliver Strand of Hudson River Blue.
