Depleted Toronto FC and New York Red Bulls play to scoreless draw
Toronto FC and the New York Red Bulls drew 0-0 Wednesday in what was essentially an MLS war of attrition with the two teams missing a combined 20-plus players due to injury, suspension or international duty.
With both sides sporting makeshift defences, there were scoring chances at each end. But the finishing wasn’t there.
The Red Bulls defence hung on as Toronto pressed in the final minutes.
The two teams came into the game mired at the bottom of the Eastern Conference at 2-4-6, with the Red Bulls ahead on goal difference. The good news is both were just three points out of a playoff position.
