“We want to try and build on [Sunday’s win],” Lions head coach James O’Connor said. “[New York Red Bulls] try the high press to make you make mistakes and attack from there. So I think it's about being intentional from our end on, see what they’re going to do and make sure we do the things that are going to cause them some problems.”
