This Wednesday, New England Revolution succumbed to a 5-3 defeat against New York Red Bulls, even with striker Leonardo Campana finding the back of the net twice. Goals for the home side were scored by Daniel Edelman (10’ 2T), Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting (24’ 2T and 37’ 2T), and Emil Forsberg (26’ 2T and 42’ 2T, penalty). Meanwhile, Campana scored for the visitors at 4’ 1T and 47’ 2T, with Kyle Duncan also contributing an own goal at 29’ 1T.
Luca Langoni had a chance to extend the lead, but the post denied him a goal at the 29-minute mark of the first half.
Emil Forsberg was undoubtedly the standout player of the match. The New York Red Bulls midfielder netted two goals and attempted six shots on target.
Another notable performer for the Red Bulls was Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting, who showcased his talent by scoring twice and taking four shots at goal.
New York Red Bulls’ coach, Sandro Schwarz, set up his team in a 4-5-1 formation with Carlos Coronel in goal; Kyle Duncan, Sean Nealis, Noah Eil and Omar Valencia in defense; Daniel Edelman, Ronald Donkor, Mohammed Sofo, Emil Forsberg, and Wikelman Carmona in midfield; with Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting as the lone striker.
