Don't blink folks, because we are looking at a tantalizing matchup with the New York Red Bulls galloping into the turf against the New England Revolution.
For the men between the sticks, it's Carlos Coronel for the New York Red Bulls lining up against Aljaž Ivačič for the Revolution. A higher rating and more saves to his name gives Ivačič a slight edge, but then again, history tells us every game is a reset button!
On the Revolution front, Carles Gil with his remarkable 8.23 rating has been stealing the show. Scoring goals, setting up plays, and dictating the tempo on the nemesis' turf - what a sight! Then there's Alhassan Yusuf with his 90% passing accuracy. Kinda ghost-like, isn’t he? Unassumingly outstanding.
Red Bulls types, don't look so grim, because Emil Forsberg has maintained a 7.30 rating orchestrating some serious damage while Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting isn’t lagging far behind. Sure, both teams have some admirable firepower, so sparks are bound to fly.
Throwing a gaze back in time, the past matchups seem to have been more like a seesaw than a soccer game - wins and losses going each way. But if you hear a faint whisper, yes, that's history suggesting the Revolution hold a slim advantage.
Reviewing the regular season records, the Red Bulls squeak by with a couple more wins despite a few more bumps along the road. Seems they have been sleeping less and charging more!
Reflecting recent outings, the Revolution have had some tough days but look at the Red Bulls, they seem to have mastered the art of sharing, as most games ended up in a draw.
Drum roll, please. Just like every game isn't a goal fest, every commentary doesn't promise a nail-biter. It's a game after all, not a sitcom. This one? Well, it's looking like a tie. So if you were expecting exciting fireworks, perhaps it's time to switch to a cooking show.
