Columbus Goals: Higuain 29mins, Kamara 50mins
NYCFC Goals: Harrison 7mins & 76mins, Herrera 64mins
A Quick Look…
Missing the stricken skipper David Villa, Jack Harrison scored twice, helping NYCFC to rally from a goal down to defeat Columbus Crew in a topsy-turvy five-goal thriller. Goals from Federico Higuain and Ola Kamara on either side of halftime had cancelled out Jack's early strike but Herrera came up big with a brave header to level before Harrison netted the decisive fifth, meaning NYCFC are now 4-3-1 through eight games.
What Happened…
Columbus Crew SC were unbeaten at Mapfre Stadium in 2017 and had never lost to NYCFC on home soil going into this Saturday night showdown.
