New York City

"Citizens" could have performed better at the recent MLS is Back tournament, but reaching the quarterfinals can be considered a good result. The team showed that they are ready for new challenges, as the potential is great.

The return of the regular season did not work out very well, as the team lost in the New York derby to the Red Bulls (0-1). The game was played in an interesting way. Rivals attacked all the time and sharpened the chances, but the bulls were just more fortunate.

New York City are clearly not ready to end there and will try to show their best side against Columbus, which also promises to be tense.

Columbus

Caleb Porter's wards also played well during the group stage, as they qualified for the playoffs, but lost in the 1/8 finals to Minnesota (1-2) in the penalty shootout.

The team was somewhat upset, but they had more time to prepare for the restart of the MLS domestic championship and it really helped. “Columbus” defeated “Chicago” (3-0) in the previous match and could have scored more, because in the 48-th minute of the first half Gyasi Zardes did not convert the penalty, although later he managed to rehabilitate himself.

The team is approaching the meeting with New York City in a great mood and will try to please their fans again with a good game.
