BWP scored, Vancouver didn't; 1-0 to the Red Bulls and on to the next one.
The New York Red Bulls first-ever win against Vancouver Whitecaps could hardly have come at a better time. Matches between RBNY and the 'Caps are generally irrelevant - so much so that the Red Bulls have lost to Vancouver at Red Bull Arena in each of their Shield-winning seasons. RBNY has never really needed points from the 'Caps, and seemed to stop bothering to try to get them after 2012 (three straight RBNY losses against Vancouver from 2013 to 2015).
