Risa (leg) came off the bench and played 11 minutes in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Red Bulls. He made four passes and registered one clearance.
ANALYSIS
Risa didn't feature in the starting lineup in this derby demolition, but the defender logged a few minutes off the bench. Given that Risa has been a steady starter for NYCFC all season long, don't be surprised if he's in the XI in any of NYCFC's upcoming two matches for this week before the October international break.
