Sunday Aug. 20, 2023: Red Bulls v DC United at Red Bull Arena

On Sunday, August 20, 2023, at 7:30 p.m., the Red Bulls Arena in Harrison, NJ, will be buzzing with excitement as two of Major League Soccer's prominent teams, DC United and the New York Red Bulls, face off in what promises to be a thrilling encounter. 

DC United currently stands at the 9th position in the Eastern Conference of the Major League Soccer league. Their performance this season has been a mix of highs and lows, with a record of 8 wins, 10 losses, and 6 ties. 

On the other side, the New York Red Bulls are positioned at 11th in the same conference. Their journey this season has seen them secure 6 victories, suffer 9 defeats, and draw 8 times. 

Fans Gear Up / Residents Prepare Plans

As fans from both sides gear up for this much-anticipated match, the Harrison Police Department has not issued any traffic bulletins for the game. However, according to the Traffic plan of the Town of Harrison, South Frank E. Rodgers Blvd Road will be closed for approximately 45-60 minutes at the end of the event. This has been a point of contention for the residents living off of South Frank E. Rodgers Blvd. They argue that the closure often exceeds the stated 45 minutes and doesn't just occur at the end of the game. 

Red Bull Arena Tickets

For those looking to be part of this electric atmosphere, tickets are still available for purchase from Ticketmaster. 

This match is not just about the points on the table but also about pride, history, and the passionate fans who will be cheering every move.
