The NY Red Bulls had to earn the trophy by beating the Chicago Fire. Any other result would not have earned the trophy for the team. And they did in resounding fashion, with a come from behind 5-2 score in front of a sold out crowd. This is the first major trophy in the team's history, dating from its first season in 1996.
By winning the Shield, the NY Red Bulls earned the #1 seed in the playoffs and will host the MLS Cup final if they get that far. The NY Red Bulls also earned an automatic berth in next year's CONCACAF Champions' League.
