New York City Football Club History
New York City FC first began play in 2015, after the 20th MLS franchise was awarded in 2013. NYCFC has a strong connection with the New York Red Bulls, with their rivalry known as the Hudson River Derby.
After finding their footing during their inaugural season, New York City FC reeled off three playoff appearances in a row, making the Eastern Conference semi-finals in 2016, 2017 and 2018. The New York City FC roster was quickly built around international stars such as David Villa and Frank Lampard, giving the team credibility and a solid reputation from the very beginning. Villa, who before joining New York City FC helped lead Spain to the 2010 FIFA World Cup title, had an immediate and lasting impact on the club. He led the team in scoring in each of his four seasons and won the 2016 Landon Donovan MLS MVP Award before leaving to play in Japan for Vissel Kobe after the 2018 MLS season.
In 2021, NYCFC claimed their first MLS Cup championship behind 2021 Golden Boots winner Valentín “Taty” Castellanos and the MVP goalkeeper Sean Johnson. A year later, New York won the annual Campeones Cup match.?

Wonderful! Great family event. Everything was well organized and well run. The staff at Yankee Stadium couldn't be more polite. That goes for the crowd too! Friendly and fun day out - and the match was exciting. A local boy scored the equalizer in the final minutes.
Fun and Thrilling of the fan base of NYCFC. Also, a lot went to see Inter Miami just for Lionel Messi lol.
As the title says. We were in the 10th row but the floor seats aren't stadium seating so we couldn't see the stage. It was a waste of money.
Great environment. Legendary venue. But Yankees stadium is not designed for soccer.
Amazing experience for the whole family. Came from out of town (western NY) and will definitely be coming back. Action packed game that kept everyone’s attention.
Saw a good game with some well finished goals. Good night to watch as 6 goals went in. Visited from Wales in the U.K. Killed 2 birds with 1 stone, by seeing the fantastic yankee stadium at the same time. Food and atmosphere was good, with very reasonable food and drink pricing. Bought a jersey for my son, which he loves. All in all a good bordering on very good experience.
First Professional Soccer Game for my Grandson and Me Great seats, great energy and lots of fun.
The stadium experience was awesome. The sears were great. My friends and me enjoyed our time and the game.
Stadium was interesting to see, but it all seemed to be a bit heartless as everything of course was the home of of NY Mets. I can't really say i saw NYCFC playing at home. They would need an own stadium to build up more of an own identity. Compared to nearly every other club in the world, even NY RB, i only saw one guestteam playing another...
very entertaining day, result unfortunate for NYC, staff at the stadium were all excellent. I got great views of the game, plenty of options for food and drink, all good.
