The New York Red Bulls Under-18 academy team earned a 1-0 victory over the Orlando City SC U-18s on Wednesday evening in Orlando. After giving up the first goal, the Red Bulls tied things up with a goal from Ryan Mingachos before co-captain Jared Gilby put away a penalty in the final minute.
The Red Bulls side, led by head coach Simon Nee, was in Florida this week for a preseason camp, coinciding with the Red Bulls First Team camp. The U-18s enter the Spring portion of the U.S. Soccer Development Academy, which kicks off on Sunday, March 6, the same day the MLS season begins.
