ORLANDO, Fla. — – Teenager Julian Hall<\/a> scored two goals in the first half and 30-year-old rookie goalkeeper Kevin Horvath made them stand up as the New York Red Bulls beat Orlando City 2-1 in a season opener on Saturday night.<\/p>\n

Cade Cowell<\/a> passed to Emil Forsberg<\/a>, who maintained possession through traffic before setting up Hall for a tap-in<\/a> in the 8th minute. Hall took a pass from 16-year-old rookie Adri Mehmeti<\/a> and scored in the 40th minute to give New York a 2-0 lead at halftime.<\/p>\n

It was the fifth career goal for Hall, who won’t turn 18 until March 24. He scored once in 26 appearances last season and twice in 11 appearances in 2024.<\/p>\n

Horvath, a member of the U.S. men’s national team, totaled six saves and lost his clean sheet in the sixth minute of second-half stoppage time on a goal by Tiago Souza. Horvath replaces Carlos Coronel<\/a>, who left to play in Brazil after five seasons with the Red Bulls. Souza subbed in for Tyrese Spicer<\/a> in the 76th minute of his MLS debut.<\/p>\n

Maxime Cr\u00e9peau finished with 11 saves in his first start in goal for Orlando City after two seasons with the Portland Timbers. Cr\u00e9peau, who made his 200th career start, replaces longtime starter Pedro Gallese<\/a> – who signed with Colombia’s Deportivo Cali after his contract expired.<\/p>\n

Orlando City’s Wilder Cartagena<\/a> hobbled off and was replaced by 19-year-old Colin Guske<\/a> in the 14th minute. Guske played 13 minutes in five appearances last season.<\/p>\n

Up next New York: Hosts the New England Revolution on Saturday.<\/p>\n

Orlando City: Hosts Inter Miami on March 1.<\/p>\n
