The New York Red Bulls had several reasons to celebrate on Friday night during a 3-1 victory at Red Bull Arena. One of the biggest cheers of the night came in the 66th minute, when New York’s all-time leading scorer, Bradley Wright-Phillips, entered a match for the first time since April 20.
“Yeah, it was amazing to be out there,” Wright-Phillips said. “I was like a kid, man, back at school. Like I said before, it was so much fun, but I did realize tonight that soccer is difficult. It wasn’t as easy as I thought it was going to be, but it was nice to just get my legs under me, just get the feel of the ball and play in front of the crowd.
