NY Red Bulls vs. Real Salt Lake

Well just as I predicted we lost. It was a horrible 3-0 after only 20 minutes!! Figured we would at least have had a chance to tie but nope, just got crushed.

So now we are out of the playoffs as Portland tied their game giving them a point above us. Saturday we face Portland at home so that is a vital game to win, and hopefully they can do it.
