The storyline coming into tonight’s match for NYCFC centered around one main issue: who would score goals with Taty Castellanos out? That question was answered by three different players: Talles Magno, Maxi Moralez, and Jesus Medina. With that in mind, scoring three goals at “home” should surely mean that NYCFC picked up the corresponding three points, right?
A very disappointing defensive performance proved otherwise, as FC Dallas scored three goals of their own, all against the run of play, to split the points. NYCFC would have keyed in on young Dallas striker Ricardo Pepi coming into tonight’s match, but it was his supporting cast who did the damage.
