New York City FC player ratings are determined by you, the Hudson River Blue readers: Here are the NYCFC player ratings from that thrilling last-second 3-2 win over Columbus Crew at Yankee Stadium on Matchday 29.


A dramatic win at home did wonders for the numbers in these latest New York City FC player ratings. We had a player cross the 9.0 threshold, a ratings rarity this season that's only happened two other times.

The overall numbers were positive, with the Starting XI averaging a solid 7.1 rating. Yet three players stood above the rest of the New York City pack in your eyes for their performances in this heart-stopping win over the Crew, so we spend time below highlighting that trio.

Read on and bask in the positive vibes that permeate following a second straight important win secured by NYCFC.
