Hannes Wolf played a starring role as New York City FC moved up to fifth in the Eastern Conference with a 4-0 victory over struggling Atlanta United. <\/p>\n

Wolf grabbed the assist for Maxi Moralez\u2019s opener a minute before half-time before netting a brace in two second-half minutes to seal a comfortable win at Yankee Stadium. <\/p>\n

Despite NYCFC starting strong, it was Atlanta who had the best chance to take the lead through Aleksey Miranchuk, with his strike from distance rattling the crossbar. <\/p>\n

Derrick Williams then met a corner with a strong header, and visiting forward Jamal Thiare turned the ball over the line, only to see the goal ruled out for offside.<\/p>\n

And having survived a wave of Atlanta pressure, Pascal Jansen\u2019s side got themselves ahead in the 44th minute when Moralez squeezed an effort in at Brad Guzan\u2019s near post. <\/p>\n

After the break, three goals in four minutes ensured the victory for NYCFC, with Mounsef Bakrar kickstarting the flurry with a curling first-time finish into the roof of the net. <\/p>\n

Wolf then notched the Pigeons\u2019 third with a perfectly-placed strike into the bottom-right corner before grabbing his second with a dinked finish over the on-rushing Guzan.<\/p>\n

Data Debrief: Three is the magic number<\/strong><\/p>\n

City\u2019s emphatic display saw them register the biggest win of Jansen\u2019s tenure, with the victory inspired by those quickfire goals early in the second half.<\/p>\n

Indeed, with goals from Bakrar (55th minute) and Wolf (57th and 59th minute), NYCFC scored three goals in a five-minute span for the first time in club history and just the 11th time in a single half in league history. <\/p>\n

And though two-goal hero Wolf will receive many of the plaudits, Moralez also played his part in the win. He ended the contest with team-high totals for chances created (three), touches (94), passes in the final third (23) and final third entries (11). <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
