In front of a socially distanced crowd on a rare Tuesday night, the Columbus Crew welcomed the New York Red Bulls to Lower.com Field for Hispanic Heritage Night. It was Spanish-born Crew cult hero, Miguel Berry, that put the Black & Gold back in the win column and the playoff hunt in a come from behind 2-1 victory.
At the first minute, trouble befell the Crew when fullback Pedro Santos and Red Bulls defender Kyle Duncan went up for the ball and their heads collided. Columbus used a concussion substitution and brought in Saad Abdul-Salaam, who in a way started his first match since Columbus’ 2-1 loss to the Seattle Sounders on Aug.
