New York City FC player ratings are determined by Hudson River Blue readers — here are your NYCFC player ratings after NYCFC came oh-so-close to staging an upset win over Columbus Crew at Lower.com Field before giving up a stoppage-time equalizer and ending the night with their second 1-1 draw of the week.
Starting XI
Richy Ledezma (off 63′) – 5.8
It was a good night for Richy Ledezma, but expectations have increased now that we know what the midfielder can do. NYCFC fans don’t want solid, they want elite — and they want Richy to become a consistent scoring threat. FotMob handed him a 6.9
Santiago Rodríguez – 7.1
The Designated Player looked sharp back in the lineup after serving a one-game suspension for yellow card accumulation — Santiago Rodríguez created six chances, and was a major reason why NYCFC looked so dangerous on the night. FotMob gave him an 8.5, and Player of the Match honors.
