Of all the places the New York Red Bulls had to visit the week after losing star centerback Aaron Long for the year with an Achilles’ injury, I’m fairly certain Foxboro would be last on that list.
The history RBNY has against the New England Revolution and specifically on the road is substantial and the last place a road weary and injured squad wants to see is probably Gillette Stadium anyway.
While we sympathize with Energy Drink fans on the loss of the great Aaron Long (which also has significant USMNT implications in a heavy international year), especially coming off of last year’s injury to Carles Gil.
