Despite Coronel’s tremendous efforts, New York Red Bulls still lost 0-2 to Philadelphia Union in the previous Major League Soccer match. The result on the scoreboard could’ve been humiliating for the Bulls had it not been for Coronel. After all, he made five crucial saves to keep his team away from being MLS’ laughing stock.
