The Union failed to capitalize on an opportunity to jump into first place in the Eastern Conference in their match against the Red Bulls, but did manage to escape with one point, their first ever at Red Bull Arena. The defense held strong for the Union, as they played the Red Bulls to a scoreless tie.
While losing the possession battle greatly, strong defense kept the Union in the game. The Union and Red Bulls each managed three shots on goal in the contest, but both sides came up empty handed.
The tie allowed the Red Bulls to move into a tie for first with Sporting Kansas City, at least until Kansas City's match today. A win by Montreal moved the Impact into a tie with the Union for second place. A strong finish to the season could see the Union grab a high seed in the playoffs, but they will need to better capitalize on opportunities provided.
