Are the Red Bulls.. good? It’s only been two games, but the potential that ardent supporters promised was there may actually be showing after two convincing wins on the road to open the year. New York hasn’t won its first two matches of the year since 2017, and to do so as conclusively as they did, while traveling, may just point to a competent team. A good team. A contender, even. The words linger on the tongue, sweet like honey. They are a fresh cup of water after a long walk through the desert of the post-Marsch Red Bulls years.
