The New York Red Bulls pulled out a very gutsy win against the Revolution on Saturday. After conceding a penalty inside of ten minutes, they rallied with two goals in the second half to win 2-1. This snapped the Red Bulls four-match win-less streak and showed they have fight. There were quite a few standout performances as well.<\/p>\n
Easily the Red Bulls’ Man of the Match. Lawrence had an absolute outstanding game on both sides of the ball. He did a perfect job shutting down New England on the wing, as well as providing the assist that led to the game-winning goal. Lawrence has been one of the Red Bulls’ most reliable defenders for a good stretch now, and it doesn’t look like that will change anytime soon.<\/p>\n
Royer had one of his best performances of the season against the Revolution as well. Having a number of impressive backheels, as well as scoring the game-winner off a beautiful Kemar Lawrence cross.<\/p>\n
Royer has easily been the most consistent midfielder the Red Bulls have had. He currently sits second on the team with four goals scored this season.<\/p>\n
Long continues to impress in his first season with the senior team. He has hands down been the Red Bulls best defender and did a masterful job of shutting down Kei Kamara. The normally dangerous striker for New England was anything but on Saturday evening.<\/p>\n
Long has shown his toughness and durability, as he has logged the most minutes for the club this season.<\/p>\n
BWP continued his highlight reel of goals against New England. After a stunning overhead kick against Toronto FC last week, he followed it up with a slick backheel goal.<\/p>\n
However, Wright-Phillips’ night was a rather quiet one past the goal. Once again proving he only needs a slight opening to make opposition pay, the goal marks the first time BWP has scored in consecutive games all season.<\/p>\n
Kljestan has returned to solid form on his set-piece deliveries. However, his form everywhere else has been lacking. Kljestan is still struggling in making those vital passes the squad have come to expect.<\/p>\n
While he was able to set up the Red Bulls on many set-pieces, the rest of his game was very mediocre. The Red Bulls will need their captain to produce if they want to win any silverware this season.<\/p>\n
