Everyone remembers their first.
Coming off a bitter 4-0 defeat at the hands of their local rival New York Red Bulls, New York City FC descended upon the west coast to take on expansion side Los Angeles FC in their first-ever matchup against each other, eager to wipe clean the sins committed a week prior. And trust me when I say that this match wasn’t just must-see, it was can’t-miss.
Reminiscent of their game against Atlanta United earlier this season, the Boys in Blue fought the Black-and-Gold in a balls-to-the-wall contest that was battled until the dying minutes.
