Mac Kanji's goal in the first half proved to be enough at the New York Bulls defeated the Sounders FC 1-0 at Qwest Field in front of over 36,000 fans.
Seattle FC were the offensive team for the entire match, but just could not find the back of the net. The best opportunity for Seattle FC came in the 77th minute when Pat Noonan crossed a ball into the box and Freddie Ljungberg pushed an open header wide right. Seattle FC also had multiple corner kicks, but the Red Bull defense was able to hold on tight.
This is the New York's Red Bulls first road win since May 2008. It looks like this team is for real, after defeating Brazilian powerhouse club team Santos FC in pre-season, the Chicago Fire in their home opener, and now Seattle FC on the road.
Great win for New York today.
