Henry Scores First Goal For Red Bulls, But Tottenham Wins Exhibition

Newcomer Thierry Henry scored his first goal off a Joel Lindpre assist for his Major League Soccer employer, the New York Red Bulls, in the 25th minute of an exihibition game Thursday at Red Bull Arena in Harrison, NJ during the opening matchnight of the inaugural Barclay's New York Challenge.

Unfortunately, Henry's debut was spoiled as Robbie Keane and Gareth Bale scored goals in the 62nd and 72nd minute, respectively, for Tottenham Hotspur of the English Premier League in a 2-1 victory over the Red Bulls.

The four-team exhibition tournament ends Sunday with the Red Bulls facing the EPL's Manchester City and Tottenham taking on Portugal's Sporting Lisbon.
