It’s finally here. The Eastern Conference semifinals have arrived.
New York City FC faces a challenging first leg Tuesday night, on the road in Columbus in front of what is bound to be an excited — and agitated — group of Crew supporters. The Boys in Blue know that a positive result can set them up for an extended playoff run, but they will need to be careful against a team that’s in-form and up for the challenge.

It was just nine days ago, remember that? On a wild decision day, NYCFC teetered back and forth between the 2nd and 3rd position in the East before earning the draw at “home” at Citi Field.
