MATCH RECAP, pres. by Provident Bank: Red Bull New York Fall in D.C.

D.C. United converted an early penalty and added a second goal just before half, hung on, and came away victorious vs. Red Bull New York, 2-1.

A handball was called early against RBNY, with D.C. converting to go up. They scored off a corner kick in stoppage time of the first half.

Midway through the second half, a second yellow was issued - and eventual red card - taking them down to 10 men. Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting found the back of the net not long after for RBNY's lone goal.

Ronald Donkor played a ball forward to Emil Forsberg who flicked a ball through to forward Choupo-Moting who took a touch passed the goalkeeper and struck a shot into the bottom left corner. 

Choupo-Moting scored his fifth goal of the season and the 22nd of his MLS career. The forward has scored in back-to-back matches. 

New York kept the pressure up throughout the match, with Cameron Harper hitting the post in the dying moments of the match.

Forsberg provided his eighth assist of the season and the 23rd of his MLS career. The captain has moved into a tie with Marck Chung for eighth place in franchise history for most assists by a midfielder. 

Donkor registered his ninth assist of the season and the 13th of his MLS career. The midfielder has registered three assists in his last two appearances. 

Dylan Nealis reached 10,000 career minutes played with Red Bull New York across all competitions.
