AFP, NEW YORK: Frank Lampard scored two goals in the closing minutes as New York City F.C. defeated D.C. United 3-2 to claim the top spot in Major League Soccer's Eastern Conference on Thursday.
The former Chelsea and England star stroked home the winning goal in the third minute of stoppage time to seal a dramatic win for City at Yankee Stadium.
The victory saw the big-spending New York club move to the top of the division with 44 points, one point clear of Toronto F.C.
