TUCSON, Arizona, Jan 28, CMC – Bermudian winger Zeiko Lewis made his New York Red Bulls debut on Friday night after coming on as a substitute in the team’s Major League Soccer pre-season win over Portland Timbers.

Lewis, 21, was a 69th-minute replacement in the Red Bulls’ 2-0 victory.

In a game that took place over three periods of 30 minutes, Red Bulls took an early lead when a cross from Kemar Lawrence was turned into his own net by fellow Jamaican Rennico Clarke.

The Red Bulls went 2-0 up when Vincent Bezecourt scored from the penalty spot.

Lewis was selected 17th overall by Eastern Conference champions Red Bulls at this month’s MLS SuperDraft in Los Angeles after a stellar career with Boston College and is the second Bermudian to play for the Red Bulls after Khano Smith made eight appearances for them in 2009.
