Montenegro forward Bledi Bardic scored three times (hat-trick) to lead New York Cosmos B to a 4:0 victory over visiting Kingston Stockade FC in the 2018 NPSL’s (National Premier Soccer League) Regular Season Finale at Columbia University’s Rocco B. Commisso Stadium on Saturday evening.  The win also gave Cosmos B a perfect 10-0-0 record and sole possession of 1st place in the NPSL’s North Atlantic Conference heading into the postseason.

If Rocco Acquires AC Milan, What of the Cosmos?

By Sean McCaffery, July 7, 2018

This question has been put to me many times by many people so I thought it best to address it. As far as whether or not Rocco is successful in his bid, I have no clue. On both counts I have no inside information. However should he be successful, it will be a great thing for The Boys in Green. The tie ins as far as marketing goes would be very helpful to the Cosmos, Milan is a top international brand, yes the Cosmos are also a historic US brand and as ever huge worldwide, it benenfits them far more.
