NYCFC breaks Red Bull Arena drought with big derby win

After failing to register a single point at its rival's home in three seasons, NYCFC delivered an emphatic victory in Saturday's showdown

HARRISON, N.J. — After having failed to record a single point in four previous visits to Red Bull Arena, New York City FC finally tasted victory on the road against its cross-river rival on Saturday, sending a very clear message that the once-lopsided derby has a new team in charge.

The visitors in blue didn't just beat the Red Bulls, they thoroughly outplayed them for the majority of the match, creating the more dangerous chances and stifling the few attacking threats the their hosts were able to muster.
