FT: Tigres embarrasses NYCFC 4-0, equating an aggregate score of 5-0.

Fucking. Embarrassing, I have no more patience for this team anymore. These performances have been pathetic. The way we exited was disgraceful. No fight. Nothing. Straight trash throughout.

This team needs a huge reset. CFG need to prove that cheering on this club is worth our time.


85’: Goal. Tigres. 4-0. Who’s counting anymore.


I’ll let you all know when this is done.


77’: Barraza denies Gignac of a chip. Just goes to show how seriously Tigres takes City.


71’: A quality chance for GMS isn’t even close. What else is new?


69’: Parks comes on for Medina. Andres Jasson makes his debut as well. Why wasn’t Parks starting in the first place?


66’: At least Isi still cares.


3-0 Tigres. 4-0 on aggregate. If you’re still reading, just go to sleep. Nothing to see here.


Ricardo Ferretti is shown to be infuriated with his team, despite them being up 3-0 on aggregate. That’s the difference between us and them. Tigres demand excellence. City is satisfied with mediocrity.


Glad to see City finally get creative when they’re already THREE GOALS DOWN! Ugggh, I can’t. I thought we were done with being disappointed this year.


54’: City almost convert on a corner, but it’s saved.

And again!


49’: Tigres pretty much end it. Quiones burns Matarrita (again) down the right wing before centering the ball to an unmarked attacker. 2-0 on the night. 3-0 on aggregate.


The second half is underway. City got a lot of work to do. Two goals needed.


HT: NYCFC trail Tigres 1-0, which translates to a 2-0 deficit on aggregate.

It’s been smash and grab for the Tigers tonight. But it’s all that’s been needed. NYCFC has possessed the ball for the majority of the night, but one good chance for Gignac has put City in a 1-0 (2-0) hole.

I could go on and on about how it’s not over — that if NYC can put together two goals with conceding another, they’d actually go through on away goals. But let’s face it… has anything this team’s done this season give you any confidence in these kind of situations? Not me.

Anything’s possible. But I firmly expect another knockout tonight. 


45’: All it is is half chances for NYCFC tonight.


30’: Gignac heads one in. An outstretched Barraza gets a touch, but it’s not enough. Tigres now have a 2-0 aggregate lead. There will be no penalties tonight. City now need two goals to advance.


26’: Big play from Barraza! The former Marquette keeper makes himself as big as possible and keeps the aggregate deficit at one goal.


13’: Matarrita tried to bury one from distance. But the shot harmlessly sails over the bar.


6’: Good flow to the start of this one. Both teams seem determined and ready to go. No real signs of rust for City thus far.


We’re off in Orlando! NYCFC currently trails 1-0 on aggregate, but can make things interesting with just one goal. Mind you, away goals are still the tiebreaker.


Lineup is out! As announced, Luiz Barraza plays in place of the absent Sean Johnson. The defensive corps of Ronald Matarrita, Maxime Chanot, Alex Callens, and Anton Tinnerholm remains intact.

Things get interesting in the midfield where Cacha Acevedo will be the lone defensive pivot with Maxi Moralez and Jesus Medina in front of him as attack-minded midfielders, though it’s possible Ronny Deila could experiment with Medina at the No. 8. Ismael Tajouri-Shradi, Gary Mackay-Steven, and Ismael Tajouri-Shradi make up the attacking three.
