Is New York red or blue? That’s the bragging right at stake in MLS’ only current intra-city rivalry. In 2015, expansion side NYCFC presented a new challenge for the long-standing New York Red Bulls, who won all three matches last season. Fans of both teams reflect the metro area itself, with a wide array of personalities and connections their favorite club. It’s a new rivalry, but one with plenty of layers already.
The teams meet for the second time in 2016 on Sunday, July 3 at Yankee Stadium (12 pm ET, ESPN). The New York Red Bulls defeated NYCFC 7-0 in the first match-up this season (this video was shot before the first match this season).
