The YES Network announced on Friday that it will televise 29 matches this season featuring the 2021 MLS Cup champions New York City FC.

It equals the most NYCFC matches YES has televised in a season.

All matches televised by YES will also be streamed live on the YES App.

Nine games will be televised on the YES Network via tape delay, due to conflicts with other sporting events, primarily Yankee games.

YES’ first telecast of the 2022 season is Saturday, March 5 when NYCFC visits Vancouver (6 p.m. ET). YES will air a special one-hour special at 5 p.m. ET that day recapping the championship season and previewing the 2022 campaign. All subsequent YES match telecasts will be preceded by a 30-minute pre-match show.

Joe Tolleson and Ian Joy will return to handle play-by-play and analyst duties, respectively. YES has been the regional television partner for NYCFC since the club’s inaugural season in 2015.
