New York City vs Inter Miami player ratings

You gave the New York City FC players strong ratings all around for their impressive performance against league-leading Inter Miami, and James Sands is your POTM for his goal — and how he disrupted Lionel Messi.

It may not be three points, but it was certainly a momentum-shifter for New York City FC.

In front of the second-largest crowd in NYCFC history, the Boys in Blue played a well-earned 1-1 draw with Eastern Conference pace-setters Inter Miami. Despite controlling the tempo for nearly the entire game, NYCFC still needed a last-gasp equalizer to come away with a point. (Not that anyone is complaining.)

NYCFC's late hero and dynamo in midfield, James Sands, is your Player of the Match, and rightfully so. It isn't easy pocketing Lionel Messi, arguably the greatest player of all time, AND scoring your first goal for the club all in one game. But that's just what Sands did.

Head Coach Nick Cushing (6.2) and referee Jon Freemon (5.9) received relatively strong ratings, with both managing the game in their respective disciplines rather well, given the occasion.

Apart from a few notable exceptions, there wasn't much difference between your ratings and those of FotMob. Isn't it better when we all get along?
