There were only three games played in Week 4, so the two teams that won - New England and Columbus - get heavy representation this time around. Lining up in a 4-5-1 this week.
The international break took Nick Rimando away from a struggling RSL, and the team limped into Red Bull Arena looking destined for another disappointing week. Not so. RSL frustrated the Red Bulls' vaunted attack, and on the few occasions RBNY broke through - Van Oekel was there to preserve the shutout. RSL got out of Harrison with a clean sheet and a point.
