Gary RedknappFootball AnalystMATCH REPORT

New York City FC II came from behind to beat New York Red Bulls II 4-2 in an entertaining derby. After falling behind early, City II levelled just before half-time and then struck three times in the final half-hour to take the points.

Benjamin Rodriguez put Red Bulls II ahead in the tenth minute, but Jacob Arroyave equalised on the stroke of half-time. João Victor Loiola Santos turned the game around with a goal on 64 minutes, only for Aimar Modelo to restore parity four minutes later. Luka Sunjic made it 3-2 on 77 minutes, and João Victor added his second of the night on 80, both City II goals in that spell assisted by Drew Kerr.

João Victor was the match-winner with a brace, and City II were clinical despite seeing less of the ball. They had 42% possession against Red Bulls II's 58%, yet produced 12 shots to nine and created four big chances to one. Their expected goals of 1.31 slightly outweighed the visitors' 0.99, and they took their opportunities when it mattered.
