New York City Team B Edges New York Red Bulls B in Thrilling MLS Next Pro Derby

In a pulsating MLS Next Pro encounter on May 18, 2026, New York City Team B came from behind to defeat New York Red Bulls B 3-2 in the latest edition of the New York derby. The match at the Red Bulls' home ground provided end-to-end action and plenty of drama for the early-morning kick-off.

Match Overview

The game started at a frenetic pace, with both teams eager to assert dominance. Red Bulls B took an early lead through a clinical counter-attack, but NYCFC B responded with two quick goals before halftime. The second half saw Red Bulls B equalize, only for NYCFC B to snatch a last-gasp winner in stoppage time.

  • 90+3 minute: A counter-attack ended with NYCFC B's substitute slotting home the winner, 3-2.

Tactical Story

Red Bulls B started with a high press that unsettled NYCFC B early, leading to the opening goal. However, NYCFC B adjusted by dropping deeper and using quick transitions to exploit spaces behind the pressing defenders. The second half was more open, with both sides committing numbers forward. The winning goal came from a classic breakaway, exposing Red Bulls B's high defensive line.

Standout Players

NYCFC B's attacking midfielder was instrumental, scoring the equalizer and providing the assist for the winner. The Red Bulls B goalkeeper made several sharp saves but could do little about the late strike. The match also saw a promising display from a 17-year-old winger on the losing side.
