BETHLEHEM, PA (September 4, 2016) – New York Red Bulls II claimed its sixth consecutive victory and moved closer to claiming the USL Regular Season Title with a win at Bethlehem Steel FC, 2-0. Brandon Allen and Derrick Etienne Jr. were the goal scorers, while goalkeeper Rafael Diaz kept the clean sheet.
The win improves NYRB II to 18-3-5 on the season, six points clear of second place Louisville City FC with one game in hand. Four games remain for Red Bulls II, who can claim the USL Regular Season Title with four more points, which would be enough to mathematically eliminate Louisville from the title race if they won their remaining three games.
