John Tolkin scores, Red Bulls hand Crew 5th straight loss
HARRISON, N.J. (AP) - John Tolkin scored in the 33rd minute for his first MLS goal and the New York Red Bulls beat the Columbus Crew 1-0 on Wednesday night.
New York (6-9-4) snapped a seven-game winless streak. Columbus (6-8-6) has lost five straight matches - the longest losing streak by a defending champion since the LA Galaxy dropped seven in a row in 2006.
Tolkin, a defender in his 12th MLS start, cut back his defender at the corner of the 6-yard box and sent it through the legs of goalkeeper Eloy Room.
New York goalkeeper Carlos Coronel had his seventh shutout of the season.
