Toronto FC wrap up road trip against NYCFC in the Bronx

Toronto FC will face New York City FC at Yankee Stadium this Friday, carrying the momentum of a recent 2-1 loss to D.C. United last Saturday at Audi Field. The defeat left Toronto frustrated after “questionable officiating decisions,” according to the report, and the road trip continues before a planned return to BMO Field in a couple weeks. NYCFC enter fifth in the Eastern Conference on 25 points from seven wins, six losses and four draws, tied with Charlotte FC in sixth. New York has lost twice in a row to Nashville SC and Columbus Crew, then bounced back with a 3-1 win over Chicago Fire. Argentinian attacker Nicolás Fernández leads with 12 goals, while NYCFC will miss multiple defenders and midfielders due to injury.
