Union take to the road for rivalry showdown at New York Red Bulls
The biggest key for the Union will be capitalizing on the few times Red Bulls maintains possession long enough to turn the ball over and put themselves in a bad defensive transition moment. Since the home side holds so little of the ball, these moments rarely pop up, and Red Bull often uses them to turn the tables and execute their own attacking transition when an opponent over-extends themselves pushing forward.

“We act like it’s the biggest deal in the world here, when we play three games occasionally and everyone jumps on me when I don’t rotate,” Curtin said.
