The start of the Major League Soccer season marks new beginnings for all of the Clubs. The quest restarts for all involved to see, who will win the Supporter Shield and who will be the final team standing.
The team will now begin after a preseason that saw the guys having one victory, three draws and two defeats. Over the six games the team was able to record eight goals and hope to show off the new form that they have under Head Coach Nick Cushing.
Thus far Coach Cushing has been impressed with the team’s positive mentality saying, “I have seen the mentality of the group, and the personality of the group, grow across the preseason.” One thing I think this preseason has shown me, especially going into Nashville is that we have some exciting football players, and I really rely on the leadership of our senior leaders: Thiago Martins, Alfredo Morales and Maxime Chanot.”
1495 Sports is 1495 Sports is proud to bring the following New York City FC Pre-Match Press Conference. Video features thoughts from Head Coach Nick Cushing, along with Maxime Chanot and Tayvon Gray:
There will be a ton of new faces looking to make an impact with the club as Matt Freese, 18-year-old defender Mitja Ilenič, 26-year-old left-back Braian Cufré, 29-year-old defender José Antonio ‘Tony’ Alfaro and 21-year-old Gabriel Segal hope to win the heart of the fans in New York.
New York City FC is used to opening up on the road, as this will be the ninth consecutive time that the franchise has been able to open up the season on the road. Thus far the franchise has a 2W-2D-4L record during their season opening games.
It will be fascinating to see how things all boil down…for now let the start and excitement of the MLS Season begin.
