New York Red Bulls vs. Chivas USA: Live Match Thread

New York Red Bulls vs. Chivas USA
Wednesday, May 23, 7 PM EDT
The Cathedral of Football, Red Bull Arena, Harrison, NJ
Form: RBNY WWWWW | CHV LLLDW
Moving Picture Box Coverage: MSG+, Univisión Deportes
SBNation Chivas perspective: The Goat Parade



Matchday for the Red Bulls is upon us again as Chivas USA visit Red Bull Arena tonight. New York is the form team in MLS and can close out the spring portion of the season top of the Eastern conference with a win. The Red Bulls don't play another league game for 25 days (!), so the team should be set to enter this break on a high.

Thierry Henry returns to the Red Bulls lineup after several weeks out (taking the place of Mehdi Ballouchy), and Wilman Conde is back on the bench. Rafa Márquez is back in central midfield in place of Connor Lade; Joel Lindpere will play left wing.

Lineups

Red Bulls (4-4-2): Ryan Meara; Brandon Barklage, Markus Holgersson, Heath Pearce, Roy Miller; Dane Richards, Dax McCarty, Rafael Marquez, Joel Lindpere; Kenny Cooper, Thierry Henry

Bench: Jeremy Vuolo, Jhonny Arteaga, Ryan Maduro, Mehdi Ballouchy, Connor Lade, Jonathan Borrajo, Wilman Conde

Chivas (4-4-2): Kennedy; Riley, Califf, McKenzie, Jazic; Minda, LaBrocca, Gavin, Cardozo; Angel (c), Correa

Henry just missed with his head off of Richards’ shallow cross into the mouth of the net.

Cooper hustled to the ball and centered it in front but the chance was missed (Lindpere?) and then Barklage found the ball and put it high and wide left but only by a few feet.

Rangers managed to win two in a row when they went down 3-2 to Ottawa, I have faith in them pulling it out if they should drop tonight’s game. But I have faith in the Blueshirts tonight, Dubinsky is back in the lineup and I expect them to be physical and hungry.

Absolutely. Not to mention the money saved, the DP slot, etc., etc.
