Jordan Allen scored the late deflected winner as Real Salt Lake rallied from an early deficit to beat the New York Red Bulls, 2-1, at Rio Tinto Stadium Wednesday night.


Allen received a pass from Tony Beltran and put his shot that deflected off Chris Duvall past a helpless Luis Robles for the winner three minutes from full time.


Gideon Baah put the Red Bulls in front on seven minutes, latching onto a Sean Davis corner and heading past Nick Rimando from eight yards out for his second MLS goal.


Yura Movsisyan leveled for Real Salt Lake in the 65th minute, heading in a sublime cross from second half substitute John Stertzer from 10 yards, ending the Red Bulls shutout streak at 472 minutes.


The Red Bulls ended the match with 10 men after a controversial red card issued to Aurelien Collin in the 90th minute.
