Felipe Martins' goal-line block on Michael Barrios' shot in the 72nd minute of play helped the Red Bulls to play FC Dallas to a scoreless draw Friday night.
Barrios, who came on in relief of reigning MLS rookie of the year Tesho Akindele in the 59th minute, found open space to the left of Luis Robles and bent a shot that cleanly beat the Red Bulls keeper, but the Brazilian midfielder, positioned on the goal line, made the save.
Bradley Wright-Phillips took a cross from Chris Duvall in the middle of the box in extra time, but his header was smothered by Dallas keeper Dan Kennedy.
The draw snapped FC Dallas' four-game win streak. The Red Bulls (4-1-5) have three wins and a draw in five visits to Frisco and continue their dominance in the series. The Red Bulls are 5-1-3 in its past nine games with Dallas.
Dallas is 6-2-3.
