Summary

During a match against the San Jose Earthquakes on April 8, forward Dante Vanzeir was accused of using a racial slur. The match was halted in the second half and later resumed, with 21 minutes of stoppage time added on. Vanzeir later announced that he would "step away form the club until further notice";[1] on April 13, MLS announced a six-match suspension from all competitions and a fine for Vanzeir's use of racist language.[2] The suspension was faced with heavy scrutiny with the club's supporters claiming that the punishment was inadequate under the MLS's "Zero Tolerance" policy on racism. This has caused the supporters groups to led a walk-out during a match against Houston Dynamo FC on April 15 in protest to the suspension.[3]

On May 8, Gerhard Struber mutually parted ways with the New York Red Bulls. Assistant Coach Bernd Eibler also left the club.[4] Struber was replaced by Troy Lesesne, who was also the assistant coach of the club before becoming the intern head coach.[5]
