When last in action, the New York Red Bulls traveled to Canada for a match against Toronto FC.

Striker Patryk Klimala expressed frustration with once again conceding the lead, stating that his side was “the better team.” While not yet a pattern, the summer swoon can form bad habits that seemingly disappear once the MLS season actually starts to matter in September.
