There were fans fighting in the street before the visiting Red Bulls took on NYCFC. But once the game started, the hosts didn’t put up any fight at all.
The Red Bulls blasted NYCFC 7-0 Saturday in front of 37,858 fans at Yankee Stadium, staying perfect against their blue-clad foes and handing out the most lopsided beating in their history.
Their record had been a 6-0 rout of Real Salt Lake on Aug. 26, 2006. They went beyond that Saturday, never letting up. Fans of the two teams clashed out on River Avenue under the 4 train before the game, with two arrests made, according to police.
