The New York Red Bulls raced out to a two-goal lead, but needed a late penalty to clinch a 3-2 win over the LA Galaxy at StubHub Center on Saturday.
Daniel Royer opened the scoring in the 7th minute, as a counterattack led to a low cross from the right flank by Bradley Wright-Phillips, which was tapped into the net by the Austrian.
Following the halftime break, Florian Valot came off the bench and scored a few minutes later, in a play that mirrored New York's first goal on the night, with Wright-Phillips' low cross being slotted in by the Frenchman.
