Emil Forsberg has praised the New York Red Bulls’ confident attacking threat ahead of their game against Orlando City on Saturday.
The Red Bulls currently sit fourth in the Eastern Conference, only behind city rivals New York City FC due to having one less win than them this season.
They bounced back in style from their derby defeat to NYCFC in midweek, beating Charlotte FC 3-1 with an impressive second-half performance.
Forsberg was full of praise for the way his team play, particularly in the final third.
“When we play with tempo, it’s hard to get us,” he said. “And I think that’s the most important thing – to play with confidence.
“When we are straightforward, that’s key for us. When we win the ball, we put those hard passes forward and go with everybody.”
Orlando City, meanwhile, sit eight points below them in 11th after winning
