SPORTING KANSAS CITY vs NEW YORK RED BULLS SPORTING PARK, Kansas City, Kan. May 27, 2014 (WEEK 13, MLS Game #114) 7 p.m. CT (ESPN2/Deportes) A high-profile match kicks off ESPN2’s season schedule of Major League Soccer coverage at Sporting Kansas City play host to the New York Red Bulls on Tuesday evening at Sporting Park. Featuring the top two goalscorers in MLS in SKC’s Dom Dwyer and New York’s Bradley Wright-Phillips, both teams come into the game looking to reverse recent skids. Sporting haven’t won in three following their 2-2 home draw with Toronto FC last weekend, while the Red Bulls lost their third match in a row in a 2-1 home defeat by Portland. REFEREE: Chris Penso.

When the Red Bulls won 3-2 on Aug. 3 at Sporting Park, it was their first defeat of Kansas City since April 30, 2011. In the five meetings in between, SKC won three times, with two draws.  Sporting have come away with points on their last three visits to Red Bull Arena, including a 1-0 victory last April 17.  Coaches record: Peter Vermes vs. NY: P10 W4 L4 T2 … Mike Petke vs. KC: P2 W1 L1 T0 SPORTING KANSAS CITY Sporting Kansas City put an end to their two-game losing slide but weren’t able to hold out for a victory, Toronto FC scoring the equalizer in stoppage time to leave the teams in a 2-2 draw Friday evening at Sporting Park. Sporting sit in a tie for second place in the Eastern Conference with 18 points from 12 games. LAST MATCH  Sporting took the lead just two minutes after the halftime restart. Dom Dwyer took the ball and turned in the TFC end. and sent a pass to Sal Zizzo on the left wing. He raced to the top of the area for a return ball, which he then left-footed first-time just inside Joe Bendik's right post.  TFC went a man down in the 63rd minute when defender Steven Caldwell was shown a straight red card by referee Baldomero Toledo for a serious foul on Sporting's Antonio Dovale.  But despite being shorthanded, TFC leveled the score four minutes later, with Luke Moore finishing a through ball from Jermain Defoe from inside the area after a giveaway in midfield.  Sporting appeared to have hit for the game-winner in the 84th minute after TFC substitute Doneil Henry brought down Igor Juliao in the box, and Dwyer calmly converted the resulting penalty kick.  But in the first minute of stoppage time, after a free kick wasn't completely cleared, Nick Hagglund lofted a pass into the mixer and Bradley Orr headed it home from close range to salvage a draw and a road point for the Reds.  Sporting manager Peter Vermes made just two changes to the team that fell 2-1 to the Chicago Fire at Toyota Park despite a significant tactical shift. Alex Martinez and Kevin Ellis came into the side in place of Claudio Bieler and the suspended Erik Palmer-Brown.

MLS GAME INFORMATION



SPORTING KANSAS CITY (4-1-2-3): Eric Kronberg - Igor Juliao, Chance Myers (Sal Zizzo 36), Kevin Ellis, Seth Sinovic - Benny Feilhaber - Paulo Nagamura, Alex Martinez (Jimmy Medranda 85) - Antonio Dovale (C.J. Sapong 86), Dom Dwyer, Jacob Peterson. TEAM NEWS  Sporting saw their winless streak extended to three games with the late draw, their longest since going four games without a win early last season.  “We essentially gave two points away,” midfielder Benny Feilhaber said. “We gave them a point and threw two in the trash. It's very frustrating. It doesn't matter the personnel we're missing. We could be missing our whole – we are missing our whole back line, basically – but it's unacceptable. We can't give up goals, especially in the last five minutes of the game and in injury time.”  Dom Dwyer scored his ninth and 10th goals of the season, now tied for the MLS Golden Boot standings with New York Red Bulls striker Bradley Wright-Phillips.  Dwyer has hit the back of the net in four straight games, with six goals in that time, just the third player in KC club history to score in at least four consecutive games (also: Preki, 1996; Eddie Johnson, 2007).  With no natural center backs available for selection due to a combination of injuries, international duty and suspension, Vermes ran out four fullbacks across his back line. Kevin Ellis, recalled from a loan to USL PRO affiliate Oklahoma City, was installed in central defense along with Chance Myers, normally Sporting's right back.  “We don’t have any of our guys that play that normally win the ball at the air. Kevin Elis is a right back, Chance [Myers] is a right back, and two of our outside backs are playing in the middle of the park. Chance goes down, you put Seth [Sinovic] in the style of play right from the get go we had to deal with,” said SKC manager Peter Vermes. “Most of the time they were whacking the back down the field and we had to deal with those big balls. I thought we did a really good job at, it’s just unfortunate that we honesty had two mistakes in the game and they both lead to goals.”  Said goalkeeper Eric Kronberg said: “That shows you that we're a team that plays together. That shows when you have people who aren't used to playing positions step in and play together, and we work hard together. Unfortunately, that last minute again – that's something we've got to fix. We've definitely addressed it, and we've worked on it. It can't keep happening.”  There was then a serious injury blow to Sporting’s season when Myers suffered a ruptured Achilles tendon in his left ankle that will force him to undergo season-ending surgery.  Rookie Alex Martinez made his first career MLS start, coming into a central midfield role and playing 68 minutes. Martinez had made five substitute appearances.  “(Martinez) has proven not only to the coaching staff but also to his teammates that he can be counted on in the game to play, and he showed it,” Vermes said. “The unfortunate thing for a guy like him is that he just doesn’t have 90 minutes in him so he can go a full match because he hasn’t played 90 minutes.” NEW YORK RED BULLS The New York Red Bulls had their losing slide extended to three matches, falling 2-1 to the Portland Timbers on Saturday evening at Red Bull Arena. The Red Bulls sit in sixth place in the Eastern Conference with 14 points from 13 matches on the season. LAST MATCH  The Red Bulls took the lead in the 35th minute after Timbers center back Pa Modou Kah brought down Lloyd Sam in the penalty area and referee Drew Fischer pointed to the spot. Bradley Wright-Phillips stepped up to take the spot kick and converted it for his 10th goal of the season.  The Timbers struck back seconds before halftime. Maximiliano Urruti saw he had space and unleashed a shot from about 20 yards out that took a deflection before beating New York goalkeeper Luis Robles.  The winner came 16 minutes before the final whistle, as Urruti struck again after a cross from the left made its way to the back post and the Timbers striker banged in the rebound.  Red Bulls boss Mike Petke made one change to the team that fell 2-0 to Toronto FC at BMO Field. Chris Duvall came in at right back in place of Kosuke Kimura.  NEW YORK RED BULLS (4-4-2): Luis Robles - Chris Duvall, Armando, Jamison Olave, Bobby Convey - Lloyd Sam, Dax McCarty, Eric Alexander (Kosuke Kimura 90), Jonny Steele (Ruben Bover 76) - Bradley WrightPhillips (Andre Akpan 91+), Thierry Henry. TEAM NEWS  The Red Bulls suffered their third consecutive defeat, their longest losing streak since losing four in a row May 8-29, 2010, and lost for a second consecutive match at Red Bull Arena.  “I’ve been in this league long enough and I’ve been through a hell of a lot longer and worse spells than we are in right now,” said Red Bulls head coach Mike Petke. “Yeah, part of it is mental, but think about Portland. For as good as they are, to only have [two wins], that’s nuts. That’s MLS for you. I think we have confident players, but perhaps it is a mental thing, perhaps it is a little bit a lack of confidence. I don’t have that answer.”

Said goalkeeper Luis Robles: “It’s not just the two losses at home, we’ve lost three in a row so I felt like we played better today, got a little unlucky. … We definitely played better than the Chicago game at home but three games in a row losing is never easy and so we have a quick turnaround, we got to go to a tough place, go to Kansas City and we got to do our best to right the ship.” The Red Bulls have allowed nine goals over their last four matches, after allowing just eight goals over their previous nine games. “I'm trying to rack my brain for any poor passes or unforced errors out of the back,” said Petke. “I think part of the second goal was the clearance, (Jamison) Olave did all he could to get that ball out and we really didn't react well we they won it and they just put it right down us.” After seeing his four-game goalscoring streak put to an end the week before, Bradley Wright-Phillips scored his 10th goal of the season, tied atop the MLS Golden Boot standings with Sporting KC’s Dom Dwyer. WrightPhillips now has nine goals over his last six games. “I thought we played well in the first half. Conceding that goal just before halftime killed the momentum. We got a couple of chances early in the second half, I think, and then from that point it was kind of a weird game [in both] attack and defense,” said Thierry Henry. “It was kind of weird but other than that we were creating. They weren’t too dangerous although they were dangerous on the counter attack. .... Story of the season so far, you know. We had most of the play in the beginning but that wasn’t enough.” Chris Duvall made his first professional start against Portland, coming in at right back. Duvall, the 22nd overall selection in the 2014 SuperDraft out of Wake Forest, had made his full professional debut the week before. André Akpan made his season debut, coming in for Wright-Phillips in stoppage time, while Ruben Bover came off the substitutes’ bench for a sixth time this season.

Sporting KC news & Notes

Besler and Zusi named to final USMNT World Cup roster Sporting KC defender Matt Besler and midfielder Graham Zusi were named to the United States Men’s National Team’s final 23-man roster for the 2014 FIFA World Cup, U.S. Soccer announced on Thursday. The U.S. began preparation for the World Cup on May 14 with a 30-player training camp at Stanford University in Palo Alto, California. Jurgen Klinsmann’s squad will now play three friendly matches vs. Azerbaijan (May 27), Turkey (June 1) and Nigeria (June 7) before arriving in Brazil on June 9 ahead of the 32-team tournament, to be held from June 12 - July 13. Besler, 27, has made 14 appearances for the United States since debuting in January 2013, including six FIFA World Cup qualifiers and all three knockout round games en route to the 2013 CONCACAF Gold Cup championship. He most recently appeared alongside Zusi in the United States’ 2-2 draw against Mexico on April 2, and the U.S. is 9-1-3 with Besler in the starting lineup. He has appeared in 145 MLS matches (including postseason) in his career, earning MLS Best XI (2012, 2013), MLS All-Star (2011, 2013) and MLS Defender of the Year (2012) honors. Zusi has earned 20 appearances for the United States with three goals and four assists in his international career. He scored in the final two FIFA World Cup Qualifiers, highlighted by the game-winning goal against Jamaica at Sporting Park, to secure a first place finish in the Hexagonal for the United States. He has played in 142 MLS matches (including postseason) with 18 goals and 40 assists. He was an MLS MVP finalist in 2012 and nominee for Best MLS Player at the 2013 ESPYS to go along with MLS All-Star (2012, 2013) and MLS Best XI (2012, 2013) recognition.

Sporting KC hosts the 2013 Supporters Shield champion New York Red Bulls Tuesday before traveling to face D.C. United on Saturday. The busy stretch extends into June as the MLS Cup champions visit rivals Houston Dynamo on June 6 for a rematch of the 2013 Eastern Conference Championship.

Sporting KC news & Notes (cont.) Long history versus New York Red Bulls

Dwyer on fire

As two of the 10 charter members of MLS, Sporting KC and the New York Red Bulls have clashed for 19 straight seasons. Sporting KC holds a narrow 19-18-11 advantage in series, and the 48 regular season meetings are 2nd most for Sporting KC against a current Eastern Conference opponent. Despite the long history between the clubs, they have never met in the MLS postseason.

Dom Dwyer scored for the fourth straight MLS match in Sporting KC’s 2-2 draw vs. Toronto FC on Friday. In doing so, the English forward became the third player in Sporting KC history to score in four consecutive regular season appearances alongside Preki in 1996 and Eddie Johnson in 2007. If Dwyer scores in his next League match, he will become just the second player in team history to score in five straight regular season games (Preki, 1996).

Injuries and international duty drain Sporting KC defense With Erik Palmer-Brown serving a one-game suspension, Aurelien Collin and Ike Opara out injured and Matt Besler (USA) and Lawrence Olum (Kenya) on international duty, Sporting KC faced a dearth of defensive options vs. Toronto FC on Friday. A makeshift backline featured Chance Myers at center back, the first time he’s played the position since the Generation adidas tour in 2009. Right back Kevin Ellis partnered him in central defense, marking the first time he’s played there since he was at Barton County Community College. The situation worsened for Sporting KC when Chance Myers left the match in the 35th minute with an achilles injury, forcing midfielder Jacob Peterson to drop into left back and Seth Sinovic to play center back. Sporting Kansas City has used eight different centerbacks in the first 12 games of the 2014 season (Matt Besler, Aurelien Collin, Ike Opara, Seth Sinovic, Kevin Ellis, Erik Palmer-Brown, Chance Myers and Lawrence Olum).

U.S. Open Cup opponent U.S. Soccer has announced the pairings and match locations for all fourth round scenarios in the 2014 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup. Sporting KC will host the third round winner between the Des Moines Menace (USASA) and Minnesota United FC (NASL) on June 18 at Sporting Park. Des Moines hosts Minnesota United on Wednesday. The U.S. Open Cup, recognized as U.S. Soccer’s national championship, is an annual competition open to all amateur and professional teams affiliated with U.S. soccer. The oldest annual team tournament in American sports history has its origins in 1914 and is named after Sporting KC’s original founder Lamar Hunt. Sporting KC are two-time champions in the competition, winning the title in 2004 and 2012.

Kronberg excelling between the posts In his first season as Sporting KC’s starting goalkeeper, Eric Kronberg is tied for the MLS lead with a 1.00 goals against average and five shutouts among goalkeepers with more than three matches played. He has allowed 12 goals in 2014, five of which have come from the penalty spot. His five victories are tied for second most wins in the League.

First half lockdown Sporting KC has yet to concede a goal from the run of play in the first half during 2014, marking 16 consecutive matches during the MLS regular season that Sporting KC has not given up a such a goal in the first half dating back to 2013. The team allowed two first-half goals in their 2-1 loss at Chicago on May 18, but both were penalty kicks from Mike Magee.

Players on loan Sporting KC has partnered with USL PRO clubs Orlando City SC and OKC Energy FC for the 2014 season. As part of the agreement, Sporting KC will loan players to the clubs to play games and gain experience throughout the year. Generation adidas member Mikey Lopez is with Orlando City SC, while OKC Energy FC features goalkeeper John Kempin and midfielder Christian Duke. Former Sporting KC goalkeeper Jimmy Nielsen is the head coach of the expansion OKC Energy FC. Lopez has made eight league appearances and logged 149 minutes of action for unbeaten Orlando City SC, who currently sit atop the USL Pro standings (8-0-3, 27 points). Lopez registered his first assist with Orlando City in a 3-1 win over the Charlotte Eagles last Wednesday. At OKC Energy FC, Kempin has made seven starts with 22 saves and Duke has contributed one assist in six appearances (416 minutes).

Sporting Park sellout streak Sporting Park has sold out 43 straight MLS matches, including four playoff games. The last time Sporting KC didn’t play in front of a sellout crowd was March 25, 2012. In those 43 matches, Sporting KC is 24-9-10, has recorded 15 shutouts, and has outscored its opponents 56-33.

Dwyer is tied for the MLS lead with 10 goals, and he has scored nine of Sporting KC’s last 12 goals in League play. His 10 goals through the first 12 games of the season tie an all-time franchise high, as Eddie Johnson matched the feat in 2007.

19-year-old Juliao impresses in first two starts Sporting KC defender Igor Juliao started his first game for the club in May 14’s 2-1 home loss to Philadelphia. He became the third youngest player in club history to start a league match (now fourth youngest after Erik Palmer-Brown’s debut on Sunday) and the youngest player in team history to go the full 90 minutes in a regular season match. The 19-year-old Brazilian wasted no time garnering League honors, as he was named to Sports Illustrated’s Week 11 MLS Best XI for two active displays on the backline (May 14, May 18). On loan from Fluminense FC through the end of 2014, Juliao led all players in tackles (6) and tackles won (5), while accumulating the second most touches (88) and winning the second most duels (9) among players who featured in Sporting KC’s loss to Philadelphia.

17-year-old Palmer-Brown makes his debut Sporting KC homegrown defender Erik Palmer-Brown earned his MLS debut and first start for the club in a 2-1 loss to Chicago on May 18. He became the youngest player in MLS history to start a regular season match as a defender. Palmer-Brown received a red card in the 64th minute after picking up his second caution of the match.

Ellis recalled from OKC Energy FC Homegrown defender Kevin Ellis rejoined Sporting KC May 16 after less than four weeks on loan with USL Pro affiliate OKC Energy FC. He saw 23 minutes of action on May 18 vs. Chicago as a second half substitute and started at center back vs. Toronto on Friday. The Kansas City, Mo. native started three of Sporting KC’s first four MLS matches of 2014 and scored his first goal for the club in the first leg of the 2014 CONCACAF Champions League quarterfinals vs. eventual champion Cruz Azul. He joined OKC Energy FC on loan April 21.

Paying the penalty Sporting KC has conceded five penalty kicks through 12 matches this season, tied for third-most in MLS and already fifth-most most for a single season in franchise history. The team conceded seven penalties in 1998 and 2007 and six penalties in 2000 and 2006.

Late-game goals hurting Sporting KC In three of Sporting KC’s four regular season defeats, the opponent has scored the game winning goal in the 81st minute or later. Seattle Sounders grabbed a 94th-minute goal in the season opener on March 8, Teal Bunbury struck a 92nd-minute winner on April 26 to knock off his former club, and Cristian Maidana scored in the 81st minute to give Philadelphia a 2-1 road win on May 14. Sporting KC also conceded stoppage time equalizers to FC Dallas on March 15 and most recently to Toronto FC on Friday. Peter Vermes’ men have dropped seven points in the final 10 minutes of action plus stoppage time in 2014.

Vermes’ men set records in 3-0 defeat of Montreal Sporting KC recorded a record-setting 3-0 win over the Montreal Impact on May 10. The MLS Cup champions attempted 803 passes and completed 739, both League records since the statistic was first tracked by Opta in 2011, for a 92 percent passing accuracy percentage. Midfielder Oriol Rosell led all players with 160 successful passes out of the 166 he attempted, setting single-game records by an MLS player since 2011. Sporting KC also had 78.18 percent possession, the highest percentage in an MLS match since 2011. Among midfielders with at least 100 completed passes in 2014, Rosell’s 87.05 completion percentage in the opponent’s half ranks second in the League behind Juninho (87.46).

After leading the NCAA in scoring with a school record 19 goals as a freshman at the University of Michigan, Saad was signed by Major League Soccer and allocated to Sporting KC via a lottery draft in July 2011. He scored nine minutes into his MLS debut on his 19th birthday and added four goals and four assists in 23 MLS regular season appearances last season. Saad represented the United States at the youth level, including appearances with the Under-20 Men’s National Team, but is now a member of the Lebanon Men’s National Team.

The Leawood, Kan. native and Rockhurst High School alum was rated the No. 1 left back in MLS by Soccer America after leading all Sporting KC players with 3,733 minutes played in all competition and starting 41 of his 42 appearances in 2013. He scored the game-tying goal in the Eastern Conference Semifinals last year en route to Sporting Kansas City reaching MLS Cup. Sinovic was drafted by the New England Revolution in the 2010 MLS SuperDraft. He was then signed by Sporting KC in May 2011 and has since contributed two goals and five assists across all competitions.

Sporting KC (5-4-3, 18 points) has gained one point over that duration but still remain tied for second place in the East along with D.C. United. Here are some notes on New York’s match against Kansas City: - The Red Bulls are coming off a 2-1 home loss vs. Portland on May 24, their third straight loss. - This is the first of two meetings between the two teams. The two teams meet again for the final game of the regular season at Red Bull Arena on October 26. - This is the first nationally televised game (in English) for the Red Bulls. - Bradley Wright-Phillips, the MLS Player of the Week for Week 8, notched his 10th goal of the campaign against Portland to move into a first place tie with Sporting KC’s Dom Dwyer. - Lloyd Sam is in a five-way tie with Fabian Espindola, Brad Davis, Federico Higuain and Javier Morales, for second place in MLS with five assists. - Thierry Henry and Eric Alexander each have four assists on the season and are tied with six others for seventh in the league. - New York is the only team with three players who have at least four assists. They are one of two teams (Seattle) to have at least two players with four or more assists. - New York has three players (Armando, Olave, and Sam) that currently sit on four yellow cards. They are one caution away from having to serve a mandatory one-game suspension. - If he starts, Thierry Henry will make his 100 th MLS start against Sporting Kansas City. - Henry has 44 goals and 32 assists in 103 games played since joining the Red Bulls in July 2010. The French playmaker needs four more assists to tie the Red Bulls record for career assists in regular season play (36 – Tab Ramos/Amado Guevara). - Luis Robles, despite having just two saves over his previous three matches, leads the league with 43 saves. - Sporting Kansas City, after starting the season 5-3-1, have picked up only one point over their previous three matches. That point came from a 2-2 draw on Friday at home against Toronto FC. Despite the recent struggles, Sporting remains tied for second place in the East with 18 points. - Sporting KC is without two of their most influential players due to international duty. Defender Matt Besler and assists leader Graham Zusi have both been named to U.S. National coach Jurgen Klinsmann’s World Cup squad. The Red Bulls are without Tim Cahill (Australia), Roy Miller (Costa Rica), and Jonny Steele (Northern Ireland) also due to international duty. - Sporting head coach Peter Vermes in the only player in MLS history to win the MLS Cup as a player and a coach with the same team. Vermes won the MLS Cup with the then-Kansas City Wizards in 2000.

- The Red Bulls’ 2-1 loss at home vs. Portland was the first instance this season in which they have lost after scoring first. Previously they were 30-1. - Over their history, the Red Bulls have played Sporting KC the 4th-most times of any opponent with 48 regular season meetings between the two clubs. New York holds a 18-19-11 all-time record. - The last time the Red Bulls visited Sporting Kansas City was on August 3 of last season when New York fought for a 3-2 road victory. RED BULLS FALL TO PORTLAND, 2-1 Despite forward Bradley Wright-Phillips’ team-leading 10th goal of the year, the New York Red Bulls fell to the Portland Timbers, 2-1, Saturday night at Red Bull Arena in front of 19,513 spectators. The defeat moved New York to 3-5-5 (14 points) on the season while Portland improved to 2-3-7 (13 points). Despite the halftime score, the Red Bulls were the stronger side in the first portion of the match. Three minutes in, Jonny Steele chipped a ball in to Eric Alexander, who beat his man but headed it over the bar. Six minutes later and Wright-Phillips nearly opened his account. After Thierry Henry made a direct run into Portland’s half, the Frenchman found Wright-Phillips who was able to juke past his defender and knocked a left-footed shot off the right post. The Englishman would find the goal he sought when he gave New York a 1-0 lead with less than 10 minutes to play in the first half. New York’s Lloyd Sam was brought down in the box by Portland defender Pa Modou Kah and Wright-Phillips stepped up and wrong-footed goalkeeper Donovan Ricketts for his 10th goal of the season. The goal pushes the striker back into first place of the MLS Golden Boot standings in a tie with Sporting Kansas City’s Dom Dwyer, who notched two on Friday night. Ricketts did well to make sure the score wasn’t 2-0, preventing a Rauwshan McKenzie own goal following the Timber defender’s wayward header. That turned out to be a crucial save as the Timbers tied the game right before the break. Maximiliano Urruti was able to get space at the top of the box and his deflected shot found its way into the lower left corner of the net. Wright-Phillips almost gave New York the lead again following halftime, but his chip following a Henry through-ball was saved by Ricketts. New York then had a goal controversially called for offside for the second time in the match in the 53rd minute after Wright-Phillips bundled it home. Portland took the lead for good with 16 minutes left to play. Jorge Villafana’s driven cross bounced loosely around the six-yard box and Urruti was first to it, firing it in for his second of the match. The Red Bulls nearly equalized with five minutes left, as Henry had two on target shots blocked before Wright-Phillips ripped a rebound just over the bar.

One of those was the lone goal in the 1-0 victory over FC Dallas, three others were a part of Wright-Phillips’ second hat trick of the season against Chicago, and his 10th of the season came on May 24 against Portland from the penalty spot. The English striker now has 10 goals on the season, nine over his last six, and finds himself in a tie with Sporting Kansas City’s Dom Dwyer atop the MLS Golden Boot race. MLSSoccer.com recognized Wright-Phillips’ efforts, as he was nominated as one of five players to be the MLS Player of the Month for April, as voted on by fans. Seattle’s Clint Dempsey won the award. Wright-Phillips became the first player since Thierry Henry (March 31, 2012 vs. Montreal – 5-2 NY win at Red Bull Arena) to record a hat trick for New York, as the Red Bulls tallied their second-straight win in a 4-0 victory over the Houston Dynamo at Red Bull Arena April 23. WrightPhillips helped stake the Red Bulls to a 2-0 lead before halftime and rounded out his night with a penalty kick goal four minutes from the end of the match. Three days later against the Columbus Crew at Crew Stadium, WrightPhillips found the back of the net again and recorded his team-leading fifth goal of the season. With New York down 1-0, Wright-Phillips was able to control a Lloyd Sam pass and curled it off the right post and into the back of the net to give the Red Bulls a 1-1 tie. On May 10th, Wright-Phillips scored his second hat trick of the season in a 5-4 loss at home to Chicago. His first goal of the night was assisted by Thierry Henry via a cross from the left side which Wright-Phillips onetimed into the back of the net to take the lead for his team heading into halftime. Facing a 5-2 deficit, Wright-Phillips came alive once again. A Jonny Steele cross caromed off Lloyd Sam’s chest and into the path of the Englishman who rocketed home a volley in the 66th minute. Henry was

dragged down in the box 12 minutes later and Wright-Phillips secured his hat trick with the PK conversion. New York signed Wright-Phillips on July 24, 2013 and the Englishman went on to record two goals for the Red Bulls (one in the regular season, one in the playoffs). His career started in 2004, when he graduated from Manchester City’s academy and played for the Premiership side until 2006. The 28-year-old then moved onto English side, Southampton, where he amassed 111 appearances and scored 22 goals from 2009-11, Wright-Phillips featured for Plymouth Argyle before the former English Under-20 International moved to Charlton Athletic. At Charlton, Wright-Phillips scored 31 goals in 82 games. Prior to coming to New York, Wright-Phillips was most recently at Brentford on loan, playing 15 matches and recording five goals. DUVALL MAKES FIRST MLS START New York Red Bulls rookie defender Chris Duvall made his professional debut on May 17 at Toronto, coming on in the 48th minute for Kosuke Kimura. One week later, on May 24, Duvall made his first MLS start in front of nearly 20,000 spectators in a 2-1 loss to Portland and played the full 90 minutes. The Red Bulls selected Duvall, 22, from Wake Forest University with the 22nd overall pick of the 2014 SuperDraft. He was at Wake Forest for four seasons and in 2013 he mainly featured as a right back, playing in 14 games for Wake Forest and recording three assists. In 2012, Duvall played more minutes than any other player on the Wake Forest roster, recording 1,637 minutes on the field with one goal and three assists. During his freshman season at Wake Forest, Duvall appeared in every game, including 16 starts, and led the team in assists with four. In preseason play with the Red Bulls, the Georgia native appeared in four games, including a start against Orlando City SC.

Both players started in New York’s 5-4 loss to Chicago on May 10 before departing for their national teams. Australia will play in Group B with Spain, the Netherlands, and Chile while Costa Rica will play in Group D with Uruguay, England, and Italy in Brazil this summer. Cahill, one of 30 players named to Australia’s preliminary roster, has played a major role in helping the Australian National Team qualify for the 2014 World Cup.
