Can a Red Bull house divided by itself stand… each other? That’s the question after the two Red Bull franchises—MLS’s New York and Salzburg—met in Austria for an exhibition game against each other. And like every family gathering, it got violent before too long.

“It got kind of chippy,” said goalkeeper Jon Conway, who played the first half. “It was kind of crap in my opinion. Their intention, in my opinion, was come out to try and hurt one of our guys. It was crap.

“From the get-go, there were some cheeky, chippy fouls. I think they wanted to hit somebody and they did. They got Dane [Richards]. Now Dane’s injured.”

After [Claudio] Reyna fouled Christoph Mattes, the Salzburg midfielder had some words for him in the 28th minute.

“Little punks, that’s what they were,” Reyna said with a laugh.

Ha! That’s what we said about our little cousins after Thanksgiving. Let’s hope Reyna didn’t get his car egged, too.
