New York City FC v New York Red Bulls: MLS – live! | New York City FC v New York Red Bulls: MLS – live! |
(35 minutes later) | |
10.09pm BST | |
22:09 | |
72 min: Harrison wins a corner. Pirlo takes it short, then Matarrita gives it back to him, but Pirlo is offside. Doh. | |
10.08pm BST | |
22:08 | |
70 min: NYC FC force a corner. Pirlo takes, headed clear, Mendoza stabs it back, and how did Robles save that? David Villa just completely missed his kick! From about five yards! He had the whole goal to aim at, and just pushed one at the goalkeeper. Sums up NYC’s day. | |
10.06pm BST | |
22:06 | |
68 min: Pirlo finds Villa in the box, but his shot is wide. Substitution for NYC: Steven Mendoza replaces Khiry Shelton. | |
10.04pm BST | |
22:04 | |
66 min: Jesse Marsch with some words of encouragement for the substitute. “Come on, Gonzalo. Mucho trabajo!” Felipe is down again. It looks like he took a whack in the face. | |
Updated | |
at 10.05pm BST | |
10.03pm BST | |
22:03 | |
65 min: Headed behind for another corner. And Muyl from close range! Oh, that was a chance. He got underneath it. Another wicked ball in from Kljestan: the quality of his set pieces is something else. Bradley Wright-Phillips’ day is done; he’s replaced by Gonzalo Veron. | |
10.02pm BST | |
22:02 | |
64 min: Another Red Bulls corner. Let’s hope NYC remember to defend. | |
10.01pm BST | |
22:01 | |
63 min: Oh, Muyl across the six-yard box, but no one could turn it home! Hernandez whacks it clear. Now NYC break at speed, and Villa surges through the middle, but his shot is miles too high. | |
10.00pm BST | |
22:00 | |
62 min: Here’s a nice stat: McCarty has played 11 years in this league, 260 games, and before today had never scored two in a single game. NYC’s corner, and Pirlo takes, but Robles comes to claim after a moment of panic. | |
9.58pm BST | |
21:58 | |
60 min: Red Bulls look like they’re hungry for more goals. Kljestan tries to dribble through the middle, and now Wright-Phillips takes it up, but he’s offside. | |
9.56pm BST | |
21:56 | |
59 min: This is now NYC FC’s worst ever loss. In 2006, the Red Bulls beat RSL 6-0. Could they equal this here? | |
9.55pm BST | |
21:55 | |
58 min: Jack Harrison, MLS’s No1 draft pick, replaces Tommy McNamara. What a time to come on. | |
9.55pm BST | |
21:55 | |
57 min: Another terrible piece of defending by NYC. They gave it away – Brillant, I think it was – trying to play out from the back, Wright-Phillips seized upon it, fed Muyl, who smacked it past Saunders from 15 yards. Lovely finish, but he had so much space. What is happening?! | |
9.54pm BST | |
21:54 | |
GOAL! NYC FC 0-5 New York Red Bulls (Muyl 56) | |
Oh my word. This is a farce! | |
9.53pm BST | |
21:53 | |
55 min: Well, this is going to snap NYC FC’s all-time unbeaten run of, um, five. This has been so poor. “This is an utter embarrassment,” sniffs Lalas. | |
9.52pm BST | |
21:52 | |
53 min: Alex Muyl replaces Mike Grella, who had been feeling his hamstring. This has been seriously impressive from the visitors. | |
9.51pm BST | |
21:51 | |
52 min: It was a mirror of the first goal. Kljestan’s corner from the left this time, and again, McCarty was totally free, and he pushed another header beyond Saunders. The defending was abject. | |
9.49pm BST | |
21:49 | |
GOAL! NYC FC 0-4 New York Red Bulls (McCarty 51) | |
Another corner, another McCarty header, and this is a rout. | |
9.48pm BST | |
21:48 | |
50 min: Wright-Phillips for his hat-trick … and Saunders tips it over the bar! Corner. | |
9.47pm BST | |
21:47 | |
49 min: So much space for Red Bulls on the counter, and Sam crosses from the right, and everyone missed it! Now McCarty tries to slip it in for Lade, but NYC are back to clear. | |
9.46pm BST | |
21:46 | |
48 min: Free kick for the hosts. Pirlo tales it short, and now Matarrita wide left wins the throw. Nothing comes of it. | |
9.43pm BST | |
21:43 | |
We're back! | |
46 min: No changes for either side. NYC FC have to pick it up. | |
9.42pm BST | |
21:42 | |
Here’s more on Jurgen Klinsmann’s Copa America squad: | |

9.37pm BST | |
21:37 | |
So the big news from Klinsmann is probably the Morris omission. Brad Evans and Mix Diskerud are also left out, but Darlington Nagbe is in, and Chris Wondolowski is rewarded for some good recent form. Ethan Horvath is the third-choice goalkeeper; Nick Rimando misses out. | |

The Red Bulls have been completely in control. NYC have been hesitant in defence, sloppy in midfield, and impotent in attack. If they don’t get it together, this could be five or six. | The Red Bulls have been completely in control. NYC have been hesitant in defence, sloppy in midfield, and impotent in attack.

Patrick Vieira looks thoroughly downbeat. “It’s been a disaster. I think we didn’t play at all, and nothing more to say. It’s been a really bad first 45. We didn’t turn up; we didn’t play, and we couldn’t live with the importance of the game.” | Patrick Vieira looks thoroughly downbeat. “It’s been a disaster.

45 min +3: A disaster for the home side. Grella played it in from the left, NYC FC couldn’t clear, and Wright-Phillips just reacted quickest. Brillant might have done better, but Wright-Phillips got his body in position, and volleyed past Saunders, who might have done better. | 45 min +3: A disaster for the home side.

37 min: Well, it’s a yellow card for Tommy McNamara. He went in late on McCarty, and got the Red Bulls player right on the shin. Then everybody piled in and we had a giant melee, but McNamara is the only one to receive a card, which is probably about right. It was a week late, the challenge, but let’s say clumsy rather than malicious. McCarty looks in pain, though. | 37 min: Well, it’s a yellow card for Tommy McNamara.

32 min: Bad giveaway from NYC, trying to play out from the back, and Sam is quickly on to it … into the penalty area, and goes past Hernandez, but his touch runs away from him and it’s out for a goal kick. Hernandez took a chance then by going to ground; if Sam had fallen, Chris Penso would have had a decision to make. | 32 min: Bad giveaway from NYC, trying to play out from the back, and Sam is quickly on to it … into the penalty area, and goes past Hernandez, but his touch runs away from him and it’s out for a goal kick.
