New York City FC finally won again thanks to three goals in the second half
Before New York City FC even announced their starting lineup, shocking news, but not so shocking news for 2020, was announced: a player tested positive for COVID-19. The club did not announce who the player was, but through the process of elimination regarding who is out due to injury and yellow card accumulation, it is assumed the positive player is Ismael Tajouri-Shradi.
Despite the news, the game against the Montreal Impact moved forward, based on the argument everyone else tested negative.
