New York City FC looks to become New York's premier team in the Hudson River Derby

This Saturday a good part of New York will stop. The Hudson River Derby is being played at Citi Field, a game that is already different from all the others but this time even more so. In fact, the Eastern Conference final is at stake, in addition to the city primacy.

It's not just a game, it's THE GAME. New York City FC comes to this game in great shape, after a less than exciting season. A season in fact played with ups and downs by Cushing's team who now plays with great courage and boldness.

On paper, New York City FC is the favorite team, the Blues, playing at home and have great enthusiasm. But the derby is a game apart and the Red Bulls will fight hard. It will be fun.
