Red Bulls Transition Focus to Philadelphia 'Right Now'

Jesse Marsch

Following their loss in Kansas City on Wednesday night, Head Coach Jesse Marsch said the team started thinking about their game against Philadelphia Union "right now."


"We can't mope about the last game," Marsch said. "This game, we're obviously disappointed, but we've got to figure out a way to regenerate and refocus and go after a big game in Philly."


Marsch said that the team knew they would have to test their depth in the game against Sporting Kansas City before re-focusing on Eastern Conference foes Union.


"They're always prepared and they're desperate, so it's not going to be easy, so we'll have to figure out which guys from here can regenerate and we'll have some fresher legs ready to go for that one," Marsch said.


Philadelphia has four points through eight games, with a record of 0-2-2 both at home and on the road, respectively. 


"We know that is always a challenge because Philly, as much as they're having a tough year, they always play well against us," he said.
