New York Red Bulls have had all of the possession so far in this match and now they've got the goal their play's deserved. Juan Agudelo has been a thorn in the side of Seattle's defence all evening, earning the first half penalty which Kasey Keller saved as well as a dangerous free kick which was wasted by Rafael Marquez in the second. This time, he didn't rely on his teammates.
New York Red Bulls Vs. Seattle Sounders: Juan Agudelo Puts Hosts Up 1-0
A long ball over the top picked out the 18 year-old, and he outsped Jhon Kennedy Hurtarto before shrugging off Leo Gonzalez and absolutely slamming the ball past Keller and into the net for the Red Bulls' first goal of the MLS season. With about twenty minutes left, the Seattle Sounders are staring an 0-2 start to the season square in the face, and their answer is... Roger Levesque. Inspiring. Shortly before the goal, Mauro Rosales came in for Alvaro Fernandez, which came just as Fredy Montero took what initially looked to be a bad knock after challenging Greg Sutton for the ball. The Colombian striker is back up and about - it's his team that's hobbling now.
