Cynical play from the blue team to draw as many yellow cards as they can in case the game ends in a tie so they win the HRD trophy on “fair play” points. #RBNY

Why are we getting the softest yellow cards ever? #RBNY

That’s a BS yellow #RBNY

I have to admit I’m struggling that we’re in a game against our closest rival, fighting for a playoff spot, and all 3 of our DPs are on the bench. I know, DP conversation is so MLS 2.0, but it’s rather annoying #RBNY

37' Second time a New York City player gets to the end line, but the pass back does not end in a good attempt. This time the ball goes to know one and trickles out of the box.

The Smurf rotations are much more active than ours. We’re positionally more static, and there’s a couple of places on the field, like in front of Parker, that it’s causing us some discomfort #RBNY

🟨 Yellow Card 22' — C. Cowell (@newyorkredbulls.com). @newyorkcityfc.com 0–0 @newyorkredbulls.com. Major League Soccer

Cowell got that yellow for throwing the shoulder, not for using it. If he stays on his feet he doesn’t get booked and wins the ball. Got too anxious to initiate the contact #RBNY

23' Cade Cowell shown a yellow card for a shoulder to shoulder tackle. Michael Bradley arguing as it happened in front of him. Covered his mouth, show him a red ref.

That sequence didn’t turn into a proper chance b/c Santos sniffed it out, but it nearly became something b/c Cowell wasn’t in position and Soto was too slow to see and step out on the left back. Suddenly they’re up our behind #RBNY

18' New York City attempt from the top of the box. Ethan Horvath dives for a save.

16' New York City corner, ball goes outside of box on right side, shot hits traffic and Red Bull clears. Overall NYC is the dominant attacking side thus far. Playing the ball in their own end and the midfield with no issue.

Mehmeti is the best players on #RBNY, I don’t think there’s much debate to be had there. I think there’s a real argument to be made that Donkor is 1B though

🟨 Yellow Card 6' — A. Mehmeti (@newyorkredbulls.com). @newyorkcityfc.com 0–0 @newyorkredbulls.com. Major League Soccer

6' Adri Mehmeti shown a yellow card for a sliding take down of Agustín Ojeda. Early yellow for a not serious tackle. Affects the game a lot.
