harrison, N.J. - A moment of brilliance from Joaquin Pereyra wasn’t enough for Minnesota United,as they settled for a 2-2 draw against the new York Red Bulls on Saturday. Pereyra’s skillful assist led to Kelvin Yeboah’s equalizing goal in the 32nd minute at Sports Illustrated Stadium.
Pereyra, an Argentine midfielder, showcased his talent by flicking the ball over Felipe Carballo, controlling it, and then passing to Yeboah, who calmly scored. “He obviously had a moment of magic for the goal,which is characteristic of him,” Loons head coach Eric ramsay said. “He shows those moments more and more frequently enough.”
Despite taking a 2-1 lead, Minnesota United (MNUFC) conceded a late goal in the 90th minute, resulting in the draw. Earlier in the match, Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting scored his 11th goal of the season for New York, tying the game at 2-2. Choupo-Moting’s goal keeps him among the top five goal scorers in the league.
Ramsay had anticipated the Red Bulls’ attack strategy, noting their runners behind Minnesota’s back line.
