And when it was over, City had earned a 5-3 shootout win over the New England Revolution after playing to a 2-2 draw, securing their first-ever Eastern Conference Final appearance at the expense of the Supporters’ Shield winners.
“It was special, an extremely special moment to see Callens step up, to see Maxi step up,” Johnson said of the duo, who are both in their fifth seasons with NYCFC. “Callens has given everything for this club, Maxi has given everything for this club, and it means the world to get those moments to show how much it means and do everything we can for this team.”
