In an epic clash at Sports Illustrated Stadium the New York Red Bulls defeated CF Montréal by a final of 1-0.
These two teams were on top of each other throughout the match ensuring the other wouldn’t get much room to generate offense and that showed at the Half as the teams were scoreless.
It was in the Second Half that the Red Bulls gained full momentum and found that combination of passing that got them the lone goal and eventual game-winner.
The goal scoring came from Defender Noah Eile as he recorded the first career MLS goal.
