Minnesota United traveled to Yankee Stadium ahead of July’s five-match home stretch to kick off against one of the hottest clubs in the Eastern Conference, New York City FC, on a warm and humid Thursday night. Ramirez struck early for the traveling Loons, but New York followed suit with three unanswered goals to take all three points.
"They were better than us on the night in most departments,” said MNUFC Head Coach Adrian Heath. “We got ourselves an early goal, we got ourselves in front and never really then took the game to them. Because I thought we had about a ten-minute spell after where we were one pass away from maybe going two-nil up.
