Match

New York City take the derby

0‑1, and no way to dress it up. A derby defeat follows a supporter to work on Monday, and this one will follow him all week.

Squad

Ethan Horvath keeps New York Red Bulls in it on his own

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the team. 7 saves, several of them the sort nobody expects to see stopped, and a scoreline that flatters everybody in front of him.

Market

Leandro Fernández puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at New York Red Bulls, and it is not being withdrawn.

Squad

Tempers go at New York Red Bulls

Robert Voloder was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Squad

The manager makes an example of Agustín Gallo

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Squad

David Pulisic out for 29 days

The medical room confirms 29 days on the sidelines for David Pulisic, and a plan built around him now has to be rebuilt.

Player ratings

Emil Forsberg runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 15. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Market

Jahkeele Marshall-Rutty linked with a move away

The name of Jahkeele Marshall-Rutty keeps appearing in other people's back pages. New York Red Bulls say nothing, which says plenty.

Player ratings

Agustín Gallo leaves them behind him

Shots: 7. Goals: none. The chances were there and they were good ones, and they went into the stand, the goalkeeper's arms and the side netting in roughly that order.

Boardroom

New York Red Bulls give the job to Interim Coach

The club looked outside for a month, found nothing it preferred, and handed the job to the man who had been doing it anyway. He knows the building; now he has to prove he knows the rest.

Market

Tyler Boyd puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at New York Red Bulls, and it is not being withdrawn.

Squad

Emil Forsberg in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at New York Red Bulls this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

Agustín Gallo gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Player ratings

One of those days for Jorge Ruvalcaba

There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 8.67, and no argument anywhere in the ground.

Squad

New York Red Bulls count the cost of losing David Pulisic

60 days, the scan says, and scans are kinder than reality. The fixtures in that window have just become somebody else’s job.

Match

New York Red Bulls share the spoils with Chicago Fire

A 1‑1 draw with Chicago Fire leaves the dressing room somewhere between relief and regret.

Player ratings

Ciro Armoa runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 13. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Squad

Nicolás Ferreyra knocks on the manager’s door

“Thirty minutes, door closed, everything said. We shook hands after.” Whatever was in the room stayed in the room, and Nicolás Ferreyra trained the next morning like a man with less to carry.
