"I think his performance in the game speaks for itself. When you play against one of the best teams in the league, you can see his individual quality. From the dead-ball situation that brought us back into the game, it was unbelievable. We had a nervous start, but then Nico stepped up and got us on the scoreboard. That was a real statement of his quality."
"Throughout the game, he gave them a really big headache. I see it every day in training, so it does not come to me as a surprise."
Nicolas Fernandez delivered an impressive performance for New York City FC in their 3-2 loss to Inter Miami, scoring a remarkable equalizer from a free-kick. Despite taking the lead through Agustin Ojeda, NYCFC succumbed to goals from Lionel Messi and Micael, marking their first defeat of the MLS season. Coach Pascal Jansen praised Fernandez's quality and impact on the game. NYCFC has accumulated 10 points from five matches and is poised to challenge for the top position as they prepare to face St. Louis City SC after the international break.
