Injury Report: City Almost Full Strength

Injury Report Ismael

One will be missing when NYCFC looks to right the ship at home vs. FC Dallas.


Despite suffering the first loss of the season in Portland last weekend, the Boys in Blue did not suffer any additional injuries in the process, and Patrick Vieira will have a very strong side at his disposal in the Bronx come Sunday.


David Villa was back captaining the side last week, and Alexander Ring is back to full speed after his short time out a month ago.


Itā€™s only Ismael Tajouri-Shradi that remains out with a hamstring strain.


Letā€™s rockā€¦
