70 percent possession, nine corners, 19 shots on target, the end result: 0 - 0.
New York City FC are now on a run of four matches unbeaten under Ronny Deila but excuse me if this draw feels like a loss.
D.C. United refused to threaten in their own backyard. This was not so much a defensive test for City as much as an opportunity to show how clinical and deadly they can be in front of goal. Maxi Moralez and Alexander Ring impressed in the first half with their creativity; they served up chances for Jesús Medina, Héber and Keaton Parks but the finishing was woeful and concerning.
