The New York Red Bulls got some US Open Cup revenge on the Philadelphia Union.
Ryan Meara made a huge save on Fafa Picault and all five New York players scored in a shootout as the Red Bulls advanced in penalties, 5-3. Felipe buried the game-winning penalty kick after the game was deadlocked at 1-1 through regulation and extra time Wednesday night in the USOC Round of 16.
The Red Bulls — who were knocked out of the Open Cup in each of the last two seasons in Philly, including a 2015 shootout at Red Bull Arena — were coasting toward a win when Roland Alberg scored a dramatic 86th-minute equalizer, collecting a long pass from Jack Elliott behind the backline and firing one past Meara.
