With the MLS reaching its curtain closing finale, New York Red Bulls ushered in the away leg to D.C. United with an illustrated tribute to its fans.

Forget the score, (D.C. overturned a 1-0 deficit to win 2-1 over both legs) it's mere history to the fans of New York Red Bulls. Having championed their team throughout the season, New York Red Bulls, like many clubs have a passionate collection of fans - something NYRB have enlisted illustrator Elliot Gerard to celebrate.

Some description

Prior to kickoff before the MLS Playoff first leg, Gerard met a handful of Red Bulls fans to find out what the clubs' 'RED Together' campaign means to them. Capturing a moment of history, the design work is to be appreciated, regardless of the end result. You can see more of Elliot's work, here.
