Red Bulls defender Connor Lade out for season with torn ACL

New York Red Bulls defender Connor Lade will miss the rest of the MLS season with a knee injury.
The Red Bulls announced on Tuesday that Lade tore the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee in Sunday's 2-2 draw with the Galaxy in Los Angeles. He's expected to have surgery later this month.
Lade, from Morristown, New Jersey, has made 20 appearances and 16 starts for New York this season. He scored his first MLS goal on July 13, the game-winner against Orlando City.

The New York Red Bull's Jesse Marsch and the LA Galaxy's Bruce Arena react to the drama that unfolded in their sides' 2-2 draw.

The defender has played in 73 regular-season games since signing in 2011.
Fellow defender Damien Perrinelle will also miss the next four to six weeks with an ankle injury, Red Bulls coach Jesse Marsch said later on Tuesday.
