Will be a tough game against a strong team.
Will be interesting to see if villa rests for cosmos and plays in this game. Don't see him playing 3 games in a week.

Date and Time
06/20 7:00 Pm

Broadcast
YES 2 970Am WQBU
 
+The telecast will be available on Verizon FiOS throughout the New York market, except for Manhattan and Staten Island, and parts of Brooklyn and Queens.

How the hell is that possible and why would the even do such a thing? smh.

I seem to recall back when they first announced the tv schedule there was going to be something like 4 or 5 conflicting games. At the time I thought they would move us to 11 or 9, but it looks like that's not going to happen.

If I get the chance I'll surf around to see how many other games are clashing with the Yankees schedule.

If you have an MLS live subscription you can install the "Hola Better Internet" plug in for google chrome and use it to get around the regional blocks.

I don't watch enough non NYCFC MLS to justify subscribing to anything . If worse comes to worse and anyone has a link they can PM Sat night..

I did a quick search and it looks as if this is the only match that will get us kicked over to YES2.

There are two more games when NYCFC and the Yankees will be playing at the same time, but according to the tv schedule at yankees dot com, both their games will be on WPIX.

Based on the fact we just played 120 minutes this might not be a game worth watching.
Yeah Villa will be 100 but who start alongside him? Nemec?
McNamara penciled into the midfield as he didn't start. Mix.. Doubtful?

Villa will be playing all 90 minutes. Poku will probably not even come onto the game, even less so for Mix. Besides that if we don't get at least one point from this match, it is all Kreis to blame. And it would be on the worst weeks for us all season.

Mix and Poku are young and three day turnaround is not the worst thing in the world. I would say old guys like ballouchy and alvarez would be the only ones not available. Maybe Mix and Poku each take a half? I think we will see:
--------------Saunders-------------
-------Hernandez--Facey----------
-Brovsky------------------Wingert(please let Calle come back)
---------Jacobson-Mix------------
Grabavoy---------------Macnamara---
---------Nemec--Villa---------------

Mix subbed out at the half depending on how he is feeling. A win here gets the Cosmos taste out of my mouth. This game is winnable, but not easy by any means. Toronto is a team we have to get points from if we are going to make a playoff push. A draw would be great here.
 
I am going to have a hard time watching this game considering Verizon Fios is basically Brovsky and Kwame of the cable providers and just doesn't have the quality needed.

What about Jacobson? He went the full 90' as well. Not sure who we replace him with if he can't go though. I hadn't thought about it until recently but we are really thin at DM.

I assume if we didn't play Dunn last night we will never see him. Jacobson is possibly the worst passer of a soccer ball I have ever seen. Every pass is to a defender or so slow that it becomes a battle to get it. I can only assume Dunn looks worse in training.

On a very positive note: Here was the injury report prior to the game:
Here is the injury report for New York City FC at New York Cosmos (U.S. Open Cup Fourth Round):

New York City FC
  • Connor Brandt (right adductor) -- OUT
  • Javier Calle (right quad) -- QUESTIONABLE
  • Ryan Meara (right adductor) -- OUT
  • Khiry Shelton (left MCL) -- OUT
  • Josh Williams (left adductor) -- QUESTIONABLE
Calle has been "out" for the past several months, now is questionable. Maybe we see him soon?
