Remember when New York City FC beat D.C. United 4-0? Me neither, I’ve blocked it from my brain and that game is in the dumpster where it belongs.
Now, NYCFC are coming to United’s turf, and the Black-and-Red are coming off their first win of the season. It wasn’t the most comprehensive win ever, perhaps, but it was still a win, and this team needs whatever confidence boost it can get.
We’re not too quick to hand DCU three points in this one, though. And that David Villa guy, man, we’ve basically all just accepted that he will score.
