Ouch. Just on the heels of the New York Red Bulls winning their first game of the season, in convincing fashion I might add, they announce the news that young striker Juan Agudelo will be sidelined for up to six weeks after tearing his medial meniscus during the United States U-23′s 6-0 win over Cuba on…[continue reading]
