By the slightest difference, Minnesota United won the New York Red Bulls at the Red Bull Arena

Minnesota added three to three this Sunday in the match corresponding to week 3. The visit scored the only goal of the match 5 minutes into the second half, through Luis Amarilla. After receiving a pass from Hassani Dotson, the striker finished the goal from the big area and beat the rival goalkeeper, who could do nothing.
