• New York’s Yearwood sent off after kick into stands hurts fan
• Philadelphia win 2-0 to take lead in Supporters’ Shield race

Daniel Gazdag scored his team-leading 18th goal of the season, Mikael Uhre added his 11th and the Philadelphia Union took the lead in the MLS Supporters’ Shield race with a 2-0 victory at the New York Red Bulls on Saturday night.

Jack McGlynn and Julian Carranza provided the assists for the Union (17-4-9, 60 points), who defeated a Red Bulls side that finished with 10 men after an ugly incident where frustrated New York defender Dru Yearwood kicked the ball into the stands and hit a home fan.
