TUCSON, Arizona (February 11, 2017) – The New York Red Bulls defeated FC Tucson, 3-1 in a preseason scrimmage on Saturday evening. New York got goals from Sal Zizzo, Gonzalo Veron and Brandon Allen.
“FC Tucson gave us a really good match,” said head coach Jesse Marsch. “They fought hard, they kept it clean, they scored a good goal. It was exactly what we needed to get some guys minutes and to have a good little test. Overall, I thought it was a successful night in many ways.”
It was the first game action for veterans Luis Robles, Bradley Wright-Phillips and Sacha Kljestan, who rejoined the team this week.
