Match Highlights | Columbus Crew vs. New York City FC

just 22 goals conceded they lead the league in that department and this is a team that has shown that they have depth but this is a team that's going to rely especially on Keaton Park and James S their experience as a Center Midfield tandem to orchestrate the game to anybody want that saw the camera immediately panned over to wilred nany with a big smile on his face couldn't believe it as New York City FC get us underway here attacking from left to right and it's hard to argue now that you know the yeah he did well s finding gray gray trying to play that ball through Lov touch W from behind go not quite as early as last time around but it's a super finish from alono Martinez on the turn and New York City FC carved Columbus open there and they have the perfect start once again at lowfield New York City being incredibly comfortable in possession they pick up a sloppy pass but now look at the top of the screen there the runners off the ball columbus' back line not in tandem not in sync and that leaves the attacking player in an onside position and of course it's Alonzo Martinez the man of the hour for New York City Football Club in incredible form finds himself in the right place at the right time yet again and finishes so cooly by but then these moments here where they can control the game a little bit by possession coo looking to break the other way coo goes in between three ball out wide Christian Ramirez difficult angle it's Ino Fring not much possession but they strike in an instant coo at the heart of it Ramirez andup he that front three again 1-1 at lower.com field there is a hold right now they're going to check now to see if Diego Rossi was on side but he definitely was very deep defensive line from Columbus going be difficult for shant to see if they flash one into the box it is tempted to be whipped through by hnis wall second attempt easier for the goalkeeper s Rodriguez again over it delivered in Kon parks with the header Santi Rodriguez is that player as he goes is how we go so far he's put together a good campaign but coo called it for just wide he so difficult to stop when he gets in that kind of position coo lovely ball out wide again FY Ramirez Ramirez goes for goal just wide almost similar to the attack that led to the leveling goal all in behind for Rossi he's got a runner on the far side if he can get that ball across second opportunity goes for goal it's all for it's out of play for the corner Rossy appealing for Hol cuz first of all this ball by Co show is everything it just cuts open the back line from New York City but the way that Martinez is able to drag his feet to cut out but the fact that that's denying I mean a goal scoring opportunity here we go after review there's no handling offense on the on the play he happy with that one it's been a good battle Kevin 's in a really good job on this side as well denying him not that time though coo strong Challenge from parkks play continues r a making a good run forward Rossy plays a in behind Aon scores C open by our pass from Diego Rossy and Marx Aon continuing his electric season Columbus are in front and it's another devastating transition moment who made that left wing back position his own for the crew but it's all about having the timing the Precision the weight of this ball you cast Defender flat footed M Pak coming on as well Kevin going to be a straight swap at left [Applause] [Music] back and the goal scorer coming off as well surprised at that a little bit yeah yeah I am I want to see if Alonzo Martinez could connect a little bit more with Santi I was going to ask where were you in your 18 but I don't think we we mind your business mind mind your business all right Hannis wolf delivered towards the fall po that was better Cho martines with they had it down that's a good step by bur Gesa mcon not sure he meant that one San Rodriguez just wide takes out a microphone behind the goal Venom in that hit Rossi go short for [Music] Austin pulls it across not a very good ball Fernandez oh they've made a real mess of this and Fernandez on the counter still Fernandez plays that ball on one back 22 who needs a goal who needs to show that he has the quality to take his chances M Matan dropping a little bit deeper and Jason Russell Ro we know his ability Off the [Music] Bench and fary coming off as well the one to is going for the will plays the Wing back now yaboa who scored in midweek going on at left wing back yaboa coming inside still going lovely little reverse pass to Rossy Rossy with the cross Russell Ro couldn't get that vital touch still not fully cleared and it the smallest player on the pitch is a player who keeps this play alive and ultimately gets the assist he just head it back into a dangerous area from how well they push Columbus Crew chambost on the second ball might be a chance to kill this one off here Ry comes inside go effort the save russello League's Cup champions just continue to roll Luis barazza does well to make the initial save but when you're a goal scorer when you're hungry when you know chances are going to come your way you put yourself in dangerous [Music] positions R said that is the final action but what a match second half end to end
