The New York Red Bulls won the Eastern Conference and scored 61 goals in the regular season. Orlando Brown Jr. Hoodie .New York is on the brink of being eliminated from the postseason.The Montreal Impact can knock out the Red Bulls in the second leg of the conference semifinals on Sunday at Red Bull Arena in Harrison, N.J.The Impact defeated New York 1-0 last Sunday in Montreal during the first leg of the aggregate format.To advance to the conference finals, New York would have to win by a margin of at least two goals. The Impact can move with a draw.The Impact are the first team to beat the Red Bulls in MLS competition since a 2-0 loss to New York City FC at Yankee Stadium on July 3d.Matteo Mancosu has emerged as the star of the postseason for Montreal. The former Serie A forward scored the deciding goal on Sunday and it was his third strike in two playoff games.He sent a laser off a volley just outside the box in the 61st minute.Were showing that we can play (in these playoffs) even though they were calling us the underdogs, Mancosu said through an interpreter to MLS.com. Now were showing that were on the same level as the others.So were very happy and its a great emotion. And then the public was so involved. Their affection was felt. They cheered us on all game and we owed them this win.The storyline will be different for the Impact at Red Bull Arena. Montreal has never won there in seven matches and could be without mercurial striker Didier Drogba, who has been battling a back injury, but hasnt played in over month since refusing a spot on Montreals 18-man roster.Droga, who has 10 goals, told reporters this week his back is feeling better and he may come off the bench.I started in my career as a sub so I dont know why it should be difficult for me to be on the bench, Droga said to MLS.com. I dont think its difficult for people to understand I can be on the bench and without making it a big drama. Anyway, Im not the type of guy to justify what Im doing or not.The Red Bulls need better form from their two top players if they hope to move on. Striker Bradley Wright-Phillips and midfielder Sacha Kljestan, the team-leader in goals and assists, respectively, were held to just two shots apiece against Montreal.Wright-Phillips won the leagues Golden Boot for the second time in three years with 24 goals.We were too satisfied with trying to play long balls and find Bradley off the first play, Red Bulls coach Jesse Marsch said. By playing more, I think we could have really pushed them (Montreal) back and at 0-0 in the second half really started to put more pressure on them.But because we made some decisions to try and play long when they werent there, it meant that we cheaply gave the ball away, which allowed them to get out on the counter and ultimately led to the goal that they got.The Red Bulls will be without forward Omer Damari who received a red card in the first leg for a tackle on Montreals Callum Mallace.

Three hits and his first experience in the middle of a game-ending celebration did wonders for Simmons mood.t4 Simmons hit a game-ending double off Mark Melancon in the 10th inning, lifting the Atlanta Braves to a 5-4 win over the Pittsburgh Pirates on Tuesday night. Simmons said he was trying too hard when he left the bases loaded with a groundout to end the eighth, and he adjusted in the 10th inning. "I was trying too hard to end it the first time I had a chance," Simmons said. "The last at-bat I was just trying to make sure I made good contact. I made the adjustment to go the other way and fortunately I did it." Melancon (1-1) walked Dan Uggla to open the 10th. B.J. Upton struck out after fouling off an attempted sacrifice bunt. Melancon then hit pinch-hitter Reed Johnson with a pitch, bringing Simmons to the plate. Simmons sent a long fly ball to the gap in right-centre. Uggla jogged calmly around third base with the winning run before the Braves raced to celebrate with Simmons near second base. Jason Heyward hoisted the shortstop, who said he didnt know how to react. "It was weird," Simmons said. "Seeing everybody run and chase me down was kind of an awkward feeling. I didnt know what to do. "They are big guys," he added. "I made sure I protected myself." Simmons, who also reached with a walk, raised his batting average from .248 to .256. Upton hit his second homer in three days, Heyward had two hits and Uggla had two hits and two walks. Simmons said those are all good signs for the Braves lineup. "Its nice to see everybody contributing and its going to show how good this whole lineup can really be," he said, adding he used a patient approach after batting practice "didnt go like I wanted it to. "I just tried to battle and see the most pitches that I could. That helped a lot," Simmons added. Anthony Vavaro (3-0) pitched a perfect 10th. Four Braves relievers combined to allow one hit in four scoreless innings in the Braves fourth straight win. Gaby Sanchez and Pedro Alvarez hit homers for Pittsburgh. The Braves came close to ending it in the ninth. After Justin Uptons broken-bat single to left field, Freddie Freeman hit a deep fly that centre fielder Andrew McCutchen caught at the wall. Grilli walked Brian McCann before striking out Ramiro Pena. The Braves left the bases loaded in the eighth. Tony Watson walked Chris Johnson. Pena, runnning for Johnson, moved to second base when Watson walked Dan Uggla. Authentic Ravens Hoodies. B.J. Upton popped out before Pena and Uggla advanced on Watsons wild pitch to pinch-hitter Evan Gattis. Watson then issued an intentional walk to Gattis, loading the bases before Simmons grounded out to end the inning. The Pirates wasted an opportunity against Craig Kimbrel in the ninth. McCutchen, who had a two-run double in the third inning, hit Kimbrels first pitch in the ninth for a single up the middle. With one out, Russell Martin walked. Kimbrel struck out Travis Snider on three pitches and ended the inning on Alvarezs fly to centre field. McCutchens two run double in the third gave the Pirates a 3-0 lead. Freeman cut the lead to 3-2 when he reached out and slapped a two-run, opposite-field double past Alvarez at third base in the third. Former Braves draft pick Jeff Locke left the game in the sixth inning with a 4-2 lead after giving up a two-out single to Uggla. B.J. Upton tied the game with a two-run homer to centre field off right-hander Ryan Reid. "Youre looking at what you feel is your best matchup at the time and it didnt work out," said Pirates manager Clint Hurdle. Locke gave up six hits and three runs in 5 2-3 innings. He matched his season high with seven strikeouts. "I thought everything was working pretty good," Locke said. "I felt pretty good the whole time. There was never any at-bat where I really felt out of it or anything like that. I know I had a couple walks but there were times where I could afford to put that guy on." Minor allowed four hits and four runs, two earned, in six innings. Martin made his first career start in right field. Martin, the starting catcher in Mondays opening game of the series, has appeared in three games at third base this season but no games in the outfield. The Braves traded Locke to the Pirates on June 3, 2009, as part of a package that sent outfielder Nate McLouth to Atlanta. The Pirates also acquired right-hander Charlie Morton in the deal. NOTES: The Pirates are off Thursday before opening at series at the Chicago Cubs. Hurdle said he plans to use Francisco Liriano, A.J. Burnett and Locke as his starting pitchers in Chicago. ... Braves manager Fredi Gonzalez said he plans to start Gattis on Wednesday to give McCann a rest in the day game following Tuesday nights game. ...
