There was reasonably decent game of soccer played between the New York Red Bulls II and Pittsburgh Riverhounds on Saturday, May 7, but it was overshadowed by a late-game scuffle between Karl Ouimette and Romeo Parkes. Whatever passed between the two players, it brought the red card out of the referee's pocket and the worst out of Parkes. As Ouimette took his medicine and wearily trudged toward the bench, Parkes unleashed a kick to the small of the NYRB II defender's back. The Canadian international went down; the Jamaican international went off, seemingly ready to take on all comers.
