The East is wide open, and two teams sitting right on the red line meet today at RFK
The last time D.C. United met New York City FC, a stoppage time goal from Alvaro Saborio gave the Black-and-Red a 2-1 victory as well as a spot in the 2015 MLS playoffs. We're months away from games carrying that kind of weight, but this game still looks quite important for two remodeled teams. United holds the last playoff spot in the East thanks only to goal difference, with NYCFC at -2 to DC's 0.
