The New York Cosmos fell 3-0 to Westchester SC on Wednesday night in USL League One action. Westchester struck early in the seventh minute as Bobby Pierre opened the scoring, giving the hosts an early advantage. Despite conceding inside the opening 10 minutes, the Cosmos responded with composed possession and controlled 53 percent of the ball throughout the match. New York looked to create opportunities through the midfield combination of Philip Spengler and Nicholas Mendonca but were unable to find a breakthrough before halftime, trailing 1-0 at the break.

The Cosmos pushed forward in search of an equalizer during the second half, making several substitutions to inject fresh energy into the attack. Westchester, however, capitalized on its opportunities, with Kyle Evans doubling the lead in the 76th minute before Conor McGlynn added a third in the 83rd minute to seal the result. Despite finishing with more possession and completing 366 accurate passes, the Cosmos were unable to convert their chances against a disciplined Westchester defense as the hosts claimed all three points.
