NEW YORK (AP) — Hannes Wolf and Mounsef Bakrar each scored a goal for New York City FC on Saturday night in a 2-1 win over the New York Red Bulls. Bakrar gave New York City a 2-1 lead in the 64th minute. Wolf cut back to evade a defender at the right corner of the area and played a ball that led Tayvon Gray toward the goal line. Gray took one dribble before firing a cross to Bakrar for a one-touch finish from point-blank range. NYCFC (7-5-2) has won three consecutive games. The Red Bulls (6-3-5) lost for just the second time in their last 10 games. Wolf, a 25-year-old rookie who scored his first MLS goal in a 2-1 win over the Philadelphia Union opened the scoring in the third minute. On the counter-attack, Malachi Jones ran down the left side onto a through ball played by Santiago Rodríguez and rolled a cross to Wolf, who cut back to evade a sliding defender and then scored from 7 yards out to give NYCFC a 1-0 lead. |
