New York Red Bulls fans were surprised and elated when the news came down this afternoon that Damien Perrinelle would be back on the field in a Red Bulls uniform. Now, granted, that uniform was one of New York Red Bulls II, but the idea is the same nonetheless.
A few hours later and fans were less excited to see that Perrinelle was subbed out after only 35 minutes on the field. They shouldn't be.
Damien Perrinelle has spent close to three-quarters of a year out recovering from this knee injury. It is going to take him a little while to get back up to speed.
