NEW YORK — Gabriel Segal scored the equalizer in stoppage time, lifting NYCFC into a 1-1 draw with the Columbus Crew on Saturday.

Segal’s goal, in the 94th minute, came when he took the ball from over his shoulder and drilled it left-footed past the defense of Crew goalkeeper Patrick Schulte. It was the third goal of the season for Segal.

Columbus had held the lead since the 48th minute when Christian Ramirez scored his sixth goal of the season. Cucho Hernandez started the scoring play with a pass to Alexandru Matan who delivered a centering pass to Ramirez, who barely outraced a defender and beat goalkeeper Luis Barraza to his left side.

With his assist on the goal by Ramirez, Hernandez has contributed to at least one goal in nine consecutive matches to break the club record he shared with Jeff Cunningham (2001). Hernandez has four goals and seven assists during his streak.

Despite the draw, New York City is winless in its past nine league matches, with four draws and five losses. It is the second-longest streak in club history.

Columbus’s three-match winning streak came to an end.
