NYCFC need a real home
Citi Field - Queens
Stadium was interesting to see, but it all seemed to be a bit heartless as everything of course was the home of of NY Mets. I can't really say i saw NYCFC playing at home. They would need an own stadium to build up more of an own identity. Compared to nearly every other club in the world, even NY RB, i only saw one guestteam playing another...

USL Promotion/Relegation needed
NYCFC at Yankee Stadium - Bronx
I would love if the promotion/Relegation system gets implemented in USL soccer. Just like the English Premier League. A lot more at stake.

Excellent evening
NYCFC v Toronto FC. Leagues Cup 27 July. Outstanding team performance from a clearly well coached and motivated side. Match played in Harrison NJ, at the home of NY Red Bulls, so the crowd probably lower than usual but a decent atmosphere all the same. First class stewarding.

Poor
Citi Field - Queens
As a football fan that has been in different countries watching games so far this one has been the worst.Taking a part the quality of the game; the atmosphere is completely fake; the stadium is too big for such event; tickets are too expensive; no real football fans; big number of fans intoxicate+ $18 for a beer.I left in the 2 half because I wasn't enjoy a told.

First Pro Soccer Game

We loved it! Took the family and had a blast. Only sad part is the price of food, drink and parking at CitiField. We had a wonderful time.

New York City FC at Yankee Stadium
The Bronx, New York, is home to a Major League Soccer team it can be proud of. New York City FC has the shared heritage and ownership of Manchester City -- whose City Football Group controls 80 percent of the franchise -- and the New York Yankees, who own the remaining 20 percent.
NYCFC play at Yankee Stadium, which opened in 2009 and is the third iteration of the venerable stadium. The first Yankee Stadium was built in 1923 and rebuilt in the mid '70s. Yankee Stadium seats 28,743 for most MLS games and can seat up to 47,309 for playoff games and other important matches. The official supporters group, The Third Rail, occupies Sections 236 and 237 of Yankee Stadium and was founded immediately after the establishment of the franchise.
New York City FC History
New York City FC first began play in 2015, after the 20th MLS franchise was awarded in 2013. NYCFC already has a strong connection with the New York Red Bulls, and their rivalry already has a name: the Hudson River Derby.
After finding their footing during their inaugural season, New York City FC reeled off three playoff appearances in a row, making the Eastern Conference semi-finals in 2016, 2017, and 2018. While NYCFC lost in these games to Toronto FC, the Columbus Crew, and the Chicago Fire, respectively, they have laid the groundwork for future postseason success.
The New York City FC roster was quickly built around such international stars as David Villa and Frank Lampard, giving the team credibility and a solid reputation from the very beginning. From that foundation came a consistency which allowed NYCFC to make three playoff appearances in their first four years.
David Villa, who prior to joining New York City FC helped lead Spain to the 2010 FIFA World Cup title, had an immediate and lasting impact on the club. He led the team in scoring in each of his four seasons and won the 2016 MLS Most Valuable Player Award before leaving to play in Japan for Vissel Kobe after the 2018 MLS season.
