New York wrapped the month of July with a perfect 5-0-0 mark across all competitions, which included four MLS wins. Sitting in seventh before the turn of the seventh month, the Red Bulls tallied 12 straight-league points, jumped to fourth place and sit just two points back of NYCFC for third and three points of Chicago for second. During the Red Bulls four-match MLS winning streak, New York has scored three or more goals in four consecutive games (July 5 - July 29). It is the first time in franchise history that New York has accomplished the feat. On the defensive side of the ball, the Red Bulls backline has allowed just three goals on 16 shots on goal. Daniel Royer has tallied at least one goal in four-straight matches, which is tied for the second-longest streak in MLS this season. It is also currently stands as the longest-active streak. Chicago s David Accam scored in five straight matches earlier this season. During Royer s hot streak, the Austrian winger has tallied his first two career braces and converted two consecutive penalty kicks Sacha Kljestan s lone assist against Montreal on July 29 raised his season total to 10. He has tallied at least 10 assists in the last three seasons. For his career, Kljestan has amassed 77 MLS Regular-Season assists, which places him in a tie for 13th all-time in MLS history and second among active players in MLS.

Sweat also provided the final assist on Harrison s goal as NYCFC won their third straight in the league and improved to 2-6-0 in all competitions against the Red Bulls in the New York Derby s three-year history. Less than two weeks after the Red Bulls Open Cup victory at NYCFC, the hosts were outshot 13-10 and 6-1 in terms of efforts on target as they were shut out for a fourth time in eight league matches. A CLASH IN A BASEBALL STADIUM The New York derby heads to Yankee Stadium for the first time in 2017. The Red Bulls have taken two of three from NYCFC in Yankee Staidum, outscoring their rivals 10-3 in the baseball staidum. The Red Bulls have had the right to say New York is Red the past two seasons since NYCFC joined MLS. RBNY swept New York City in 2015 and then took two of three in 2016. NYCFC, however, took the first leg, 2-0 at Red Bull Arena. The Red Bulls have had a balanced attack against New York City, scoring at least two goals during each 15-minute interval. New York has had its most success during the 45th to 60th minute mark, tallying five goals. Bradley Wright-Phillips has tallied eight goals and one assist against New York City FC, the most of any Red Bulls player. Wright-Phillips has been held scoreless in just two of the previous seven New York Derbys. CLUB CONNECTIONS New York City FC manager Patrick Vieira was a teammate of Ian Wright, father of Bradley and Shaun Wright-Phillips, at Arsenal from 1996 to 1998. Shaun Wright-Phillips and Vieira played briefly together for Manchester City during the 2010-11 season. Red Bulls goalkeeper Ryan Meara spent the 2015 season on loan with NYCFC. Meara was loaned out as part of the first trade between the two clubs, which saw the Red Bulls land Sal Zizzo on a permanent basis. Zizzo was selected by NYCFC in the 2015 MLS expansion draft from Kansas City. While in Kansas City, Zizzo was teammates with NYC FC s Mikey Lopez. 4 NewYorkRedBulls.com 4
BWP CONTINUES TO CLIMB Bradley Wright-Phillips set new franchise records for career goals in MLS and across all competitions last season. He passed Juan Pablo Angel s mark across all competitions in one less game and 776 fewer minutes played. In 2016, BWP set new franchise records for career multi-goal games (16), game-winning goals (20) and hat tricks (4). New York was 10-0-6 on the season when Wright-Phillips scored a goal in 2016. New York Red Bulls All-Time Goals Player GP Goals Bradley Wright-Phillips 128 89 Juan Pablo Angel 113 62 Thierry Henry 135 52 New York is 7-2-1 when Wright-Phillips has scored a goal this season. BWP has scored 80 goals in MLS regular season play, seven in the MLS playoffs, one in CONCACAF Champions League and one U.S. Open Cup to claim the top spot in franchise history. Wright-Phillips has tallied at least one goal in four different competitions, having scored in New York s first competitive match of the year, the first leg of the CCL quarterfinals with Vancouver and in the Open Cup Quarterfinals. Following his goal against Minnesota, BWP recorded his fourth consecutive season with at least 10 goals. The English striker rose to a tie for 16th in MLS history with 80 MLS regular-season goals scored following his lone tally against Montreal. Wright-Phillips stands third among active MLS players, behind Chris Wondolowski (129) and Kei Kamara (93), who are fourth and 10th all-time, respectively. The forward has tallied a goal in four of New York s last six MLS matches. KLJESTAN THE CREATOR Sacha Kljestan has set new franchise records for assists and game-winning assists this season. Kljestan surpassed Thierry Henry in both categories, first for game-winning assists on April 22 against Columbus with 12 and then for career assists as a Red Bull against Minnesota on July 22 with 43. Kljestan s lone assist against Montreal on July 29 raised his season total to 10. He has tallied at least 10 assists in the last three seasons. For his career, Kljestan has amassed 77 MLS Regular-Season assists, which places him in a tie for 13th all-time in MLS history and second among active players in MLS. DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE Red Bulls goalkeeper Luis Robles has been a stalwart in net at Red Bull Arena since he came to the club in 2012. Of Robles s 46 career clean sheets, he has recorded 30 of them at Red Bull Arena. He has a career 1.05 goals-against average at home. Robles has continued his trend of blanking the opposition at home, as he tallied four shutouts at Red Bull Arena to begin 2017. NEW YORK RED BULLS vs. NEW YORK CITY FC It was the first time in club history that the Red Bulls did not allowed a goal through the first four games of the season at home. Robles allowed a goal for the first time at home against Chicago. He tallied 415 minutes of scoreless soccer at Red Bull Arena to begin the season. His record in 2016 was 588 minutes, which is the third-longest in MLS history, that spanned from April 24 to July 24. The Red Bulls goalkeeper recorded the first road shutout of 2017 against Philadelphia on June 18. Robles tallied a game-high three saves. Robles added his second road shutout of the season, tallying three saves against Minnesota. Robles recently moved into a tie for 13th in MLS history for career shutouts with Bill Hamid at 46. JUBILANT JULY The Red Bulls played their best soccer to this point of the season in the month of July, stringing together five-straight wins across all competition (4 MLS/1 USOC wins). It is the second time in franchise history that New York has enjoyed a perfect month with four or more wins, the other being July of 2000, when the team went 5-0-0 in MLS play. New York is 5-0-0 this July, with four MLS victories and a win over the New England Revolution in the U.S. Open Cup. Over the last five matches, New York has outscored its opponent, 15-3 and have won three road matches during the stretch. The Red Bulls five-match winning streak across all competition is just one shy of tying the franchise record of six, which has been accomplished just once in club history. ROBLES IRONMAN STREAK Red Bulls goalkeeper Luis Robles continues to rewrite the history books, setting another all-time MLS mark on March 11 against Colorado. With an appearance against the Rapids, Robles broke the league s all-time mark for consecutive regular season appearances with his 142 nd. Robles surpasses previous record holder, Chris Klein. Robles has started and played a full 90 minutes in 161 consecutive regular season games. He broke Kevin Hartman s all-time MLS record of 112 complete games against Colorado on April 16, and set a new league record for consecutive starts with his 119th against NYC FC. Robles is the only player in MLS history to start 100 consecutive games for the same franchise. Robles surpassed former Red Bull Dax McCarty against Minnesota on July 22 for the franchise lead in minutes played with 14,400. The goalkeeper also leads the franchise in wins (77), shutouts (46), goals against average (1.29), winning percentage (.593) and minutes played for both field players and goalkeepers (14,490). 90 Minutes Played in Consecutive MLS Regular Season Games 1.

New York s Tyler Adams, Derrick Etienne Jr. and Evan Louro will play for the squad. Adams is one of five players on the roster who played for the United States at the 2017 FIFA U-20 World Cup earlier this year. ROYER RELISHING IN MLS The big signing of Summer 2016, Danny Royer, has relished his chance as a Red Bull starter this season, producing 10 goals and two assists in 19 games started. Royer has tallied at least one goal in four-straight matches, which is tied for the second-longest streak in MLS this season. It is also currently stands as the longest-active streak. Chicago s David Accam scored in five straight matches earlier this season. With New York holding a 3-1 lead in the 89th minute against San Jose, Royer put the nail in the coffin with two consecutive goals in a span of 1:43 for his first career MLS brace. Royer connected with his second career brace against Montreal. Two of Royer s six late goals this season have been late-match heroics as his goal in the 76th minute against Atlanta evened the match and his goal against New England in the 74th minute was the game winner. Royer added to his late-match heroics in the Open Cup, as he tallied the game-winning goal in the 67th minute to knock NYCFC out of the tournament and advance to the Round of 16. Royer continued his perfect streak of penalty kicks as he cashed in his third against Montreal in the 25th minute to give the Red Bulls an early 1-0 lead. Royer, who joined New York on a transfer from FC Midtjylland, had one goal and one assist in six appearances last season. TIMELY LAWRENCE Each time Kemar Lawrence has recorded an offensive stat (goals/assists), he has made sure that it will affect the outcome of a game. On April 29, Lawrence tallied his first career game-winning goal in the 71st minute to extend New York s winning streak to three with a 2-1 victory over Chicago. Lawrence then assisted on Daniel Royer s game-winning goal in the 74th minute against New England for his second game-winning assist of 2017. Five Lawrence s six points this season have been game-winning plays with his first being the game-winning assist against Columbus last week. Of Lawrence s 13 career points, nine have been game-winning plays. He has tallied seven game-winning assists and one game-winning goal. For his country of Jamaica, Lawrence scored the game-winning goal in the 88th minute of the Gold Cup Semifinal match against Mexico. CLOSING OUT MATCHES New York s unfortunate narrative in 2016 was that the team was unable to hold onto a lead or allow the opposition to take points away. Early on in 2017, the Red Bulls have seemed to have changed that narrative. New York is 12-0-3 when leading or tied at the 75th minute mark. (12 MLS / 3 Open Cup) New York is 6-1 in one-goal matches, including 4-0 at Red Bull Arena. FIRST BLOOD New York is 9-1-1 when scoring first this season. The Red Bulls were 13-1-8 when scoring first in 2016, including an 10-0-1 mark when scoring first at home. During New York s first three-match homestand this season, it did not trail one minute of the 270 total minutes of play. SUPER SUB After a slow beginning to the season, Gonzalo Veron seems to have found a knack for late-game theatrics. In the last five MLS matches, Veron has produced five points on one goal and three assists, all five points coming in last five minutes of each match. Against Philadelphia, Veron, who entered the match in the 84th minute, tallied an assist on both of New York s goals (87 & 90+2 ). The Argentine striker then produced the game-winning goal against New England in the 90th minute. Veron came on for Bradley Wright-Phillips in the 83rd minute. Veron, coming on as a sub in the 68th minute against San Jose, recorded an assist on Royer s second goal in the 90+1 minute. Even though he wasn t credited with the assist, Veron created the chance in the 73rd minute for teammate Sacha Kljestan to record what would be the game-winning goal. Both his assist against Philadelphia and his goal against New England were his first career game-winning assist and goal. CONSISTENTLY GOOD The Red Bulls qualified for the postseason for the seventh-consecutive year in 2016, the longest stretch among major sports teams in the New York metro area. New York finished as the top seed in the Eastern Conference for the third time in four years with 57 points. New York achieved a 50-plus point season for the fifth straight year, a mark only three other MLS clubs have achieved. The LA Galaxy have the only other longest streak, with seven straight 50+ point campaigns. Since 2014, New York has accrued the second most points in the league (202), sitting just six points back of FC Dallas for the most.

HOME-SWEET-HOME New York has already taken care of business in their two three-match homestands. The Red Bulls began with back-to-back 2-0 wins against D.C. United and Columbus and capped it off with a 2-1 victory over Chicago in their first three-game homestand. New York wrapped up their second three-match homestand with four points, defeating New England, 2-1 and tallying a 1-1 draw with Toronto FC. The Red Bulls have gained points in bunches when they are home for three games while head coach Jesse Marsch has been at the helm. New York has been at home for three-straight matches five times under Marsch and have earned at least four points in each homestand. In 2017, New York collected all nine potential points during its first three-match homestand. It was the second time under Marsch that the Red Bulls accomplished the feat. The Red Bulls have recorded 23 of their 35 points this season at Red Bull Arena and have outscored their opponents, 14-6.

MARSCH MOVES TO TOP SPOT The win over New England on July 5 was the 42nd of Jesse Marsch s New York career.

New York had its first of four mid-week matchups against Sporting Kansas City, falling 2-0 on Wednesday, May 3. The Red Bulls have struggled on the road in mid-week matches under Marsch, tallying an 1-6-1 mark. New York earned their first mid-week road win under Marsch against New England, 3-2 at Gillette Stadium. Despite the road woes in the mid-week, New York has only been held without a goal in two of previous eight games. BRACE FOR IT Bradley Wright-Phillips scored twice in the final five minutes to lead New York past Philadelphia on Sunday, June 18. Wright-Phillips recorded his first and the team s first brace of 2017 to give the Red Bulls their first road win of the season. In 128 matches, the Red Bulls striker has tallied 17 braces in his career. Daniel Royer joined BWP as the second Red Bull to tally a brace this season. The Austrian winger recorded his first career MLS brace in a span of 1:43 against San Jose on July 19. Royer has now tallied a brace two of the last three matches. Besides Wright-Phillips and Royer, three other New York Red Bulls players have recorded at least one brace in their MLS career, Mike Grella (2), Sacha Kljestan (2) and Felipe (1). 15&15 CLUB Sacha Kljestan climbed into an exclusive group within the club, becoming just the ninth player in franchise history to record at least 15 goals and 15 assists in regular season play. Kljestan joined current teammate BWP as the second active Red Bull to accomplish the feat as he tallied his 15th goal for the club against San Jose on July 19. Mike Grella (2 A) is on the verge of reaching that plateau.

The New York Red Bulls earned a 2-0 road shutout against Philadelphia on June 18. During the match, New York recorded four assists on their two goals. All four assists during the Philadelphia contest came from a Red Bulls player that came off the bench. Gonzalo Veron recorded a career-best two assists in the match, the first being a game-winning assist that was the first of his career. Both Sal Zizzo and Kemar Lawrence also tallied an assist. Lawrence s assist was his third game-winning assist of the season. It was the sixth and seventh time this season that New York recorded a double assist on a goal. INTEGRATING HOMEGROWNS Through 21 matches in the 2017 campaign, the New York Red Bulls have been able to integrate their homegrown players, not just with playing time, but as starters. Five of the seven homegrown players have been given the nod to at least start one game this season. Midfielder Sean Davis started the first three games of the season before coming off the bench against Real Salt Lake. The seven homegrown players combined for just 2,353 minutes through 21 games last season. In 2017, the same seven players have racked up 4,127 minutes. The 4,127 minutes are the most minutes for homegrown players on a single club in the MLS in 2017. Versus Real Salt Lake, three of the 11 Red Bull starters were homegrown players as Tyler Adams, Connor Lade and Alex Muyl found themselves in the Starting XI. For the second game in a row, New York implemented three homegrowns in the starting lineup, featuring Derrick Etienne Jr., Adams and Lade against Houston. The player growth and the trust in the coaching staff have shown in minutes played from last season to this season. For the first time in franchise history, five Homegrown players made an appearance in the same match. Muyl, Adams and Lade started for the Red Bulls and both Davis and Etienne came off the bench. New York implemented five Homegrowns for the second time against San Jose as Adams, Davis and Lade were in the Starting XI, while Etienne Jr. and Muyl came off the bench. On May 3 against Sporting Kansas City, New York had another first in club history, recording four Homegrowns in the Starting XI, which included Davis, Etienne Jr., Lade and Muyl. On April 28, New York signed NYRB II goalkeeper Evan Louro to a MLS contract as a Homegrown. Louro became the eighth Homegrown to reach the first team in 2017. New York is tied for second with the LA Galaxy with eight Homegrown players on their first team roster. FC Dallas leads the league with nine. BACK-TO-BACK ROAD TRIPS New York will embark on its third of four back-to-back road trips with Montreal (June 3) and then to Philadelphia (June18). New York wrapped up its second back-to-back road trip in the same week with Sporting KC on Wednesday and 7 NewYorkRedBulls.com 7
Philadelphia on Saturday. The Red Bulls fell short to both Sporting KC, 2-0 and Philadelphia, 3-0. The Red Bulls, unfortunately, did not come away with a point in either match. It was just the fourth time under head coach Jesse Marsch and second time this season that the team did not record a point during a stretch like this. Under Marsch, the Red Bulls are 5-11-6 when traveling for two matches or more. New York has come away with at least one point in seven of its 11 back-to-back roadtrips with Marsch at the helm. THAT S A LOT OF OFFENSE The New York Red Bulls recorded their 1,000th career MLS goal on April 1 against Houston when Bradley Wright-Phillips scored his second goal of the season in the 13th minute. New York became just the third club in MLS history to reach the milestone, joining the LA Galaxy and D.C. United. The Red Bulls achieved the feat in their 667th game as a club. Not only did the Red Bulls record 1,000 MLS goals, they joined the 1,000-1,000 MLS club. Along with the LA Galaxy and D.C. United, New York also became the third team in MLS history to record 1,000 MLS goals and 1,000 MLS assists.
