Consequently, what happened?
The Red Bulls lost badly to the Eastern Conference leaders despite leading the game at halftime. The eight-time Ballon d’Or winner recorded a Major League record five assists in addition to scoring past Carlos Coronel. Forsberg, a former midfielder for Leipzig, has recently stated publicly that his team cannot accept the game’s collapse following their first-half lead.
THOUGH FORSBERG SAID
Forsberg stated, via Front Row Soccer, that the locker room emotions and sentiments were obviously not positive following the game. We were somewhat let down by the second half, in my opinion. We performed quite well in the first half, in my opinion.
‘I believe that we consistently enter the games with confidence. We’re doing well on the field. We are carrying out our stated course of action. Next weekend, we have to improve upon the second half.
We just cannot tolerate this. We want to return stronger after a successful [training] week. This has to teach us something. Our bar must be raised in order to Come play on Red Bull Arena, our home field, and win. We must offer our supporters… We must demonstrate our qualities and make ourselves proud.”

FUTURE PLANS FOR THE NYRB?
On May 11, the Red Bulls will play the New England Revolution, who are currently at the bottom of the table with just two victories under their belt, at the Red Bull Arena.
