Head Coach Michael Bradley opens his ledger of matches at Sports Illustrated Stadium on Saturday afternoon, rolling the same lineup that won in Week 1, against New England Revolution.
In Week 1, the Red Bulls were the first team to start three players 17-years-old or younger. They’ll do the same in Week 2.
Julian Hall starts up top for RBNY following his brace in the season opener, supported by Jorge Ruvalcaba and Cade Cowell. Hall became the fifth player in MLS history to score multiple goals in a single game at 17 years or younger.
Emil Forsberg, Ronald Donkor and Adri Mehmeti anchor the midfield.
