Cosmos, Edmonton play to scoreless draw in Coney Island
New York Moves Back into Final Playoff Spot
With Miami FC and the San Francisco Deltas already securing postseason berths, the race is on for the third and fourth playoff spots.
Because Jacksonville secured a crucial point on Friday, New York entered Saturday’s match against Edmonton FC at MCU Park needing at least a draw to regain fourth place in the combined standings.
And with their backs against the wall, the Cosmos were able to do what the U.S. men’s national soccer team could not: In dire circumstances, they grinded out a game and picked up a point by any means necessary.
