Four days after a frustrating result in the opening match of Heineken Rivalry Week, the New York Red Bulls bounced back with a hard-fought 1-0 win over their oldest rivals, D.C. United, on HRW's final day.
Alejandro Romero Gamarra, better known as Kaku, netted the winner with a subtly smooth display of individual skill, latching on to a half-clearance at the top of the United penalty box and buying space for himself with a couple of quick touches to his left before lashing a low, dipping strike inside the right post early in the second half.
