HARRISON, N.J. — The early wins were one thing. But when the Red Bulls started scoring goals accidentally — shots that went in off a teammate’s face, say, instead of out after clipping the post — it became easier to believe that their unbeaten start in Major League Soccer might not be a fluke.
The Red Bulls certainly are starting to think so. The latest sign may have been an accident — a goal scored after a deflected shot ricocheted in off the face of Red Bulls midfielder Felipe in the second half Sunday — but it produced a 1-1 tie against the Los Angeles Galaxy, the defending champion.
