In this three-part series, Red Bulls correspondent Frank Giase will examine the three regular-season games against rival D.C. United. We’ll take a look at the mindset of the team leading up to each match, how the results impacted the standings, and how the success affected the team as a whole moving forward.
Through a quirk in the schedule the Red Bulls would be playing D.C. United for the second time in three weeks and for the second time in the first four games of the season, this time on April 11 at RFK Stadium in Washington.
