Red Bulls II are the number four seed going into the USL Playoffs, and will host the Pittsburgh Riverhounds, who took the number five seed tonight. The winner will go to face Rochester in the conference semifinals.

Rochester, the Eastern Conference leaders, showed why they have been so dominant at home, with Chris Rolfe scoring twice in the opening nine minutes.

Obekop cut the lead in half in the 35th minute, jumping on a loose ball at the top of the box, dribbling his way by the Rochester keeper and depositing the ball in the back of the net.

Rhinos midfielder Mike Garzi was ejected from the game just around the hour mark, which set up a final half hour where New York was able to throw numbers forward and press for the tying goal.

It took until stoppage time, but NYRB II eventually did find the tying goal, from Stefano Bonomo. Obekop put the ball in the box, where Bonomo was able to gain possession and poke the ball over the line to knot the game at two.

New York scored deep in stoppage time, but the Rhinos took the ensuing kick and stormed down the field, earning a corner kick. The ball from Jonny Mendoza found Totsch, who was able to head the ball by NYRB II keeper Rafael Diaz to steal the points for the home team.
