78’ Matt Real in for Santos
76’ Red Bulls use up their last two subs, put in Yearwood for Clark, Harper for Fábio.
72’ Red Bulls playing better with more confidence. The longer this stays 1-0 the more the Red Bulls will like a shot at grabbing an equalizer. Kai Wagner with a vital block on one of their more promising attacks.
61’ Monteiro just had Neilis’s lunch and Neilis can do nothing but take a yellow taking him down near the corner flag.
59’ Kacper on for Fontana and will play at the tip of the diamond?
58’ Red Bulls come close to equalizing. Ball goes across the face of goal after Blake is unable to corral it but luckily for the Union there’s no one at the far post for the tap-in.
57’ Wagner with a tremendous sliding tackle to stop a Red Bull attack and instead of hitting it out of bounds he nearly starts a counter.
54’ Santos combines with Fontana nicely but his shot is blocked out for a corner.

10’ GOAL Cory Burke with a great run into the box to finish off a pass played in by Monteiro.
6’ We’re back after a delay. Union down to 10 men with Elliott still getting looked at.
