New York Red Bulls vs. FC Dallas: Live Match Thread

It's playoff time for the New York Red Bulls, who visit FC Dallas at Pizza Hut Park for tonight's Wild Card game. We now, definitely, indisputably, have a must-win game ahead of us. Lose and we're done. Win and we go home (to play LA in the Conference Semi-final first leg).
Thierry Henry is back tonight, but Luke Rodgers will miss out due to injury. All of the other usual suspects (Albright, Hot, Robinson) are out for the season. Dallas has some long-term absentees, but no immediate injury problems. Suspensions and yellow card accumulation from the regular season (inexplicably) do not carry over to the playoffs.
You can find Dallas perspective at Big D Soccer.
Lineups
Red Bulls: Frank Rost; Jan Gunnar Solli, Stephen Keel, Tim Ream, Roy Miller; Dax McCarty, Teemu Tainio, Rafael Marquez, Joel Lindpere; Dane Richards, Thierry Henry
Subs: Bouna Coundoul, Carlos Mendes, Stephane Auvray, Mehdi Ballouchy, Juan Agudelo
Dallas: Kevin Hartman; Jair Benitez, Ugo Ihemelu, George John, Zach Loyd; Brek Shea, Marvin Chavez, Andrew Jacobson, Daniel Hernandez, Ricardo Villar; Jackson
Subs: Chris Seitz, Jeremy Hall, Jack Stewart, Fabian Castillo, Maicon Santos, Bobby Warshaw, Daniel Cruz
Kickoff is at 9 PM and the game is on Fox Soccer. When the blast of war blows in our ears, then imitate the action of the tiger: stiffen the sinews, summon up the blood.

Yellow cards rolling over
Luke Rodgers would have been suspended tonight if yellows carried over from regular to post season (or maybe he would have tried a bit harder not to pick one up vs Philly…)
It's like this

Frank Rost
Looks like he’s sugarfree tonight. Good to see.

He’s wearing the light blue jersey. It’s kind of a “ha…ha…” thing (it’s kind of the same color blue as in the sugarfree cans of Red Bull).

Red Bulls are struggling to get the ball out of their own half. Maybe that’s to be expected by being on the road, but it’s still a struggle.
Also: Solli knows Shea’s on his side, right?

Dang, Shea & His Stupid Hair just missed on the chip. I feel like an 0-0 halftime score would be a miracle at this point.
Poor Marquez, he got hit in the face with an elbow.

0-0 HT

Managing Editor, OnceAMetro.com
Red Bulls looked better at the end of the half, but they really came close a few times to being down 1-0 or 2-0.
But I’m fine with 0-0 on the road and Backe “firing up” a few players to do better at moving the ball in midfield (looking at you, well, entire midfield).
