Dan Metzger made his first team debut for the New York Red Bulls in the team's 3-2 win over New England Revolution at Gillette Stadium on Wednesday, July 5, 2017. He entered the game for Alex Muyl in the 93rd minute - deep into stoppage time, with his side seeking to hold on to a surprise lead established just minutes earlier by Gonzalo Veron.
"It was definitely a rush: didn't get to play a lot, but I did what I could in the five minutes I had to help my team and was just glad to walk away with a win," said Metzger after the match.
