Nealis’ head was then the first thing that hit the ground, where he remained motionless for a few moments. Team staff attended to him for three minutes on the field before the defender ultimately walked off under his own power while flanked by trainers. The 27-year-old Nealis was subsequently subbed off for Noah Eile, with the Red Bulls holding a 2-0 lead.
