New York City FC looked gassed in the steamy, sticky heat of a Tennessee night as they lost to Nashville SC 1-0. It was a step backwards for NYCFC, as they once again won the possession battle (61% to 39%), but lost the game.

dumpster fire for all. why did they go back to that time? didn’t like winning? smh
Ilenic would be benched for weeks by me for that performance coming off his previous disastrous outing. He backs off on the cross for their goal. He’s either scared to get hit by the ball or he’s clueless about how to defend. It was one of the worst things I’ve seen a defender do. I would be going crazy on a teammate in my amateur league if they did that. Until he can play with the grit expected of a professional, he should be riding the bench.
Yeah, Ilenic had a terrible game.
