New York Christens Red Bull Arena With Victory Over Santos

Joel Lindpere scored the first goal in the history of the new home for Major League Soccer's New York Red Bulls in a 3-1 victory over Brazil's Santos Laguna Saturday at a sold-out Red Bull Arena in Harrison, NJ.

The $200 million stadium was set to open for the 2009 season but construction and weather delays pushed the opening back a season.

Mike Pelke and Dane Richards also scored in the victory.

New York plays its first league game there next Saturday against the Chicago Fire.
