Benny Feilhaber and Dominic Dwyer scored to help Sporting Kansas City beat the Red Bulls, 2-0, on Saturday night in Harrison, N.J.
Goalkeeper Tim Melia had six saves — including a diving stop of a penalty kick by Bradley Wright-Phillips — for his MLS-leading third shutout for Sporting (4-1-0).
Dwyer beat two Red Bulls defenders on the dribble, then slipped a pass to a streaking Graham Zusi, who crossed to Feilhaber for a far-post goal in the 17th minute.
Dwyer spun around a defender and put away a left-footer, off a throw-in from Saal Abdul-Salaam, from just outside the 6-yard box to make it 2-0 in the 60th.
