Philadelphia Union beat the New York Red Bulls 3-1 as teenager Cavan Sullivan delivers a goal and extends his unusual run of scoring contributions. Milan Iloski gives Philadelphia an early lead with a 21st-minute goal, and the Union go up 2-0 when Sullivan scores again in the second half in the 50th minute. The result moves Philadelphia’s unbeaten streak to seven matches.
Multiple reports highlight Sullivan’s MLS milestone: the 16-year-old is the first player to record goal contributions in four consecutive matches. He finds the net for a second straight game and a third time this season across 34 career appearances. After going ahead 2-0, the Union keep control through the remainder of the match to secure the three-point win over New York.
While one outlet emphasizes the broader team momentum and the length of the unbeaten run, both accounts center on the same game turning points—Iloski’s early strike and Sullivan’s second-half goal—framing Sullivan’s personal achievement as a key factor in the Union’s victory.
