Starting XI
Talles Magno (off 80’) – 7.4
Talles Magno finally opened his account this season with his first half-finish to break the deadlock in the 17th minute. It was a goal that meant a lot to Talles: Not only his first of the season, but he scored in front of his family, who were in attendance at Yankee Stadium. Ultimately, the game served as a huge confidence boost for the young Brazilian. Fans gave him a 7.4, while FotMob gave him an even more impressive 8.1.
Santi Rodríguez – 8.1
Santi looked good last week, but was just unable to find his way onto the scoresheet despite a few good chances vs Miami. This week, however, he was lethal. A goal and an assist to his name puts the new DP off and running on the season, and I think we can expect many more performances like these from here on out. FotMob gave him an impressive 8.5 on the day, the highest of any NYCFC player.
