This game won't make any of the headlines this week. Neither team was able to decipher what the other was bringing at them, and the result was a game that didn't see much action on goal. The New York Red Bulls came at the Revolution with a high defensive line that clogged many of their passing channels, and the Red Bulls couldn't find a consistent way to break down the Revs' back line.
