On Saturday night, Kaku finished the game with two assists in the 2-0 win over D.C. United. The two assists place him in the top 10 all-time assists list, tying Clint Mathis with 23 career MLS regular-season helpers.
“Yeah I think we played a great second half,” said Kaku. “At the start, it was a bit tough, because they had more of the ball, but afterwards, we improved and were better positioned on the field. We got a huge win for the Red Bulls’ fans.”
Head Coach Bradley Carnell kicked off the game against D.C. with three center-backs - Tim Parker, Aaron Long and Sean Nealis - and the Paraguayan international thinks this tactical switch gave the team a different dynamic.
