An Oral History of the Club’s First MLS Win

With 17 minutes left in the game between the MetroStars and Tampa Bay Mutiny, Giovanni Savarese came onto the pitch when the MetroStars were down 3-0. And then, in a span of three minutes between the 72nd and 75th minute, the MetroStars scored three times. After full time, the game finished 3-3, leading the game to shootouts, where the MetroStars won 2-1, thanks to Tab Ramos’ and Rubén Darío Hernández’s conversions.

In what became the first home win for the club, the events that took place before, during and after the game are memories that will be stored in the minds of many.
