"It was a good goal, don't get me wrong, but at the end of the day we had to score a goal," said Henry, via MLSSoccer.com. "It was not about how we scored. We needed a goal. ... I've had the opportunity to score some good goals in my career but you kind of think about it at the end of you career, not right now."

The win kept the Red Bulls tied atop the Eastern Conference standings.
