PhotoHARRISON, N.J. — Alejandro Romero Gamarra had a goal and two assists to help the Red Bulls dominate their crosstown rival, New York City F.C., 4-0, in the New York derby on Saturday afternoon. The Red Bulls (5-3-0) opened the scoring in the second minute when an outstretched Sean Johnson deflected Bradley Wright-Phillips’s shot into Romero Gamarra’s path for a put-back. Two minutes later, Romero Gamarra sent a through ball to Florian Valot, who punched it through with a deflection off defender Alexander Callens. Wright-Phillips headed home Romero Gamarra’s cross in the 35th minute to make it 3-0, and Derrick Etienne Jr. capped the scoring in the 79th by beating Johnson to Valot’s pass and rounding the keeper for an open-net finish.
