New York City FC won after a first-half scoring frenzy performance
The last time New York City FC faced Inter Miami CF, the Pigeons beat the Florida side 1-0, earning their first three points of the season. Since then, NYCFC has earned a total of 20 points, and before the game, sat in sixth place in the Eastern Conference. This game was a must need win, and the team wanted to continue where they left off last Saturday against FC Cincinnati.
This time around, there were more goals, and NYCFC had to face star players Gonzalo Higuaín and Blaise Matuidi for the first time.
