David Villa and the tight confines of Yankee Stadium will challenge the Union when they visit New York City FC for the regular season finale on Sunday.
The modern Yankee Stadium doesn't have the same mystique and aura as the one that stood across 161st Street for decades. But the current big ballpark in the Bronx still has ways to get in your head — especially for soccer.
Like most baseball diamonds, Yankee Stadium can't fit a full-sized soccer pitch within its playing surface. It has a 70-yard-wide field, the minimum allowed by FIFA regulations.
