The New York Cosmos were a whisker away from claiming the Spring Season title, and after falling just short, they now turn to the Fall Season for silverware and a berth into The Championship. New York has been led by Venezuelan star Juan Arango, who has scored four goals with three assists in 2016. The Cosmos also begin the Fall Season where they have yet to drop any points in league play this year in five tries: at Shuart Stadium. The Cosmos knocked off Ottawa Fury FC, 3-0, to open up the Spring Season.
Ottawa had a tremendous turnaround in last year’s Fall Season to claim the club’s first trophy. During the midseason break, Fury FC strengthened its back line with the addition of veteran Eddie Edward, and Paul Dalglish’s side is hoping to get back to the defensive form the team had last Fall Season when they allowed just 15 goals in 18 games.
