So much for a “home” game.
In its first CONCACAF Champions League berth, New York City FC will be forced to host Costa Rican side San Carlos at Red Bull Arena — the home of its biggest rival, the Red Bulls — according to multiple sources.
NYCFC has played its home matches at Yankee Stadium since the club’s debut season in 2015, with its search for a soccer-specific stadium of its own yet to be resolved. That issue is rearing its head once again, as Costa Rican outlet Hoy first reported the move with Yankee Stadium apparently unavailable for use.
