The New York Red Bulls are shaping up to be contenders in 2022, but you still wouldn’t know it from their home form.
A second-half Jaroslaw Niezgoda finish was enough for Portland Timbers to steal a point from Red Bull Arena in a 1-1 draw on a chilly Saturday night in Harrison. Aaron Long pulled New York back level from a corner kick later in the half, but Gerhard Struber’s team was unable to pull ahead as they remain winless at home this year.
The match began with Struber juggling lineup changes in the face of covid protocols and squad rotation ahead of Wednesday’s Open Cup match against DC United.
