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.

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
