New York City FC and Charlotte FC played to a 0-0 draw at Yankee Stadium in Game 2 of their best-of-three MLS Cup Playoffs series, with Charlotte prevailing in the penalty-kick shootout, 7-6, to force a decisive Game 3 back in North Carolina on Friday, November 7.

Both teams had chances to win Game 2 in regulation, with Charlotte striking the woodwork in the first half and New York City having some decent chances go wanting in the second half.

The shootout had both goalkeepers, NYCFC's Matt Freese and Charlotte's Kristijan Kahlina, make one save each – but Julián Fernández missed the frame entirely with his attempt, meaning when Kahlina saved Agustín Ojeda's spot kick, Charlotte won.

Now it's back to Bank of America Stadium for a winner-take-all game, but before that goes down, it's time for you to rate all the NYCFC players, Pascal Jansen, plus the referee.
