The New York Red Bulls came home to Red Bull Arena for their second of three games in eight days. Against the Columbus Crew, a game which ended in a 1-1 tie, the Red Bulls were outshot 18-11 and Luis Robles was forced to make five saves. Nonetheless, the Red Bulls walked away with an away point ahead of a favorable date with the Seattle Sounders.
Seattle entered Red Bull Arena on 11 points through 12 games, their worst start to a season in club history. Just one of Seattle’s 3 wins came away from home, and at Red Bull Arena their road woes continued.
