New York Red Bulls beat Orlando City SC for much-needed win

HARRISON, N.J. -- Bradley Wright-Phillips scored two of New York's three goals in a 10-minute span and the Red Bulls rallied to beat Orlando City 3-2 on Sunday night to snap a four-game losing streak.

Wright-Phillips, fifth in MLS with 17 goals last season, scored his first goal of the season in the 69th minute to put New York up 2-1. He poked in a left-footer from the edge of the six-yard box about six minutes later, off a perfect cross Lloyd Sam, to double the advantage.

Cyle Larin tapped in a feed from Rafael Ramos to give Orlando City a 1-0 lead in the third minute.

After Sacha Kljestan threaded a pass through the legs of Orlando defender Tommy Redding, Mike Grella tied it in the 65th.

New York's Karl Ouimette headed in an own-goal off an Orlando City corner in the 84th minute to cap the scoring.

The Red Bulls, who won the Supporters' Shield last season, came into the game with an MLS-low three points and the league's worst goal differential at minus-10.
