New York Red Bulls have jumped on teams early all season. Just a few passes after a turnover and they are already stepping on your throat. No team has scored more goals in the first 15 minutes of a match (8) than Jesse Marsch’s men in 2018.
But when Philadelphia Union traveled to Red Bull Arena in May, Andre Blake refused to let the home side gain an early advantage. Blake, who has the third most saves in MLS this season, made one of his best to keep New York’s dynamic playmaker Kaku from curling one into the upper corner of the net.
