Hudson River derby
The Hudson River derby is the name given the soccer local derby between the two Major League Soccer (MLS) teams based in the New York metropolitan area, New York Red Bulls and New York City FC. First played in 2015, the rivalry between the two started almost as soon as the announcement was made of the formation of NYCFC in 2013. the Red Bulls have dominated the fixture, winning all of the games played between the two.
==History==
New York City has a significant history with top level club soccer thanks to the New York Cosmos of the North American Soccer League, the most successful team in that competition's history. The success of the Cosmos, combined with New York's position as the most populous city in the United States, meant that it was inevitable that, when Major League Soccer (MLS) was founded in 1994, with play due to start in 1996, one of the founder clubs would play in the New York metropolitan area. This club, initially named as Empire Soccer Club, eventually started play in the 1996 MLS season as the NY/NJ Metrostars.
Since its start, MLS has engaged in a steady process of expansion from its initial ten clubs, until in 2010 the league announced its intention to award its 20th franchise to New York City. Unlike the Metrostars, which was renamed as the New York Red Bulls following the franchise's purchase by Red Bull GmbH in 2006, the plan for the second New York franchise was for it to play in the city - the Metrostars began their existence playing in Giants Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, before moving to a purpose built soccer-specific stadium in Harrison, the Red Bull Arena. The 20th franchise was eventually awarded in 2013 to a consortium of the City Football Group and Yankee Global Enterprises, with the new club being given the name New York City FC.
New York City FC began play in the 2015 MLS season. The first league meeting with the Red Bulls was scheduled for May 10 at the Red Bull Arena. The build up to the game saw an increasing level of antagonism between both the clubs and their respective supporters groups, with the Red Bulls emphasizing their history from the start of MLS as opposed to the new club, while NYCFC pointing to the fact that they are the only club to play within the five boroughs. The first meeting between the two, in front of a capacity crowd, saw striker Bradley Wright-Phillips score the first goal in a 2-1 win for the Red Bulls. Subsequent to this game, there were two further league meetings between the teams, at Yankee Stadium and the Red Bull Arena, both resulting in wins for the Red Bulls.
