    Another poor performance on the road meant another grim set of New York City FC player ratings handed down by the readers of Hudson River Blue. No one shined during NYCFC's 2-0 loss at Gillette Stadium, and our readers didn't rate any player above 6.0. Pascal Jansen's squad got much kinder ratings from our favorite rating algorithm over at FotMob, where the Starting XI averaged a 6.4 rating.

    New York City FC beat Philadelphia Union 1-0 at Citi Field on Matchday 8, renewing a rivalry that peaked in 2022 but remains a sometimes testy one by Major League Soccer standards. This game was light on the testiness, and there was nothing to separate the two teams during an even and mostly uneventful first half. Things changed 10 minutes into the second half when NYCFC broke the deadlock, a 1-0 lead that they'd ride all the way to the final whistle.
