Robles is only the second ever keeper in NY Red Bulls/MetroStars history to win the end of year award. In doing so, he won the majority of votes from the three groups of voters: MLS club management, media, and MLS players. The previous victor was Tim Howard who received the award in 2001.

Despite playing in the same conference, the Red Bulls and Crew SC met in MLS Cup in 2008 at the Home Depot Center (now StubHub Center) outside LA.

The Red Bulls travel to Columbus this weekend for the first leg on Sunday, November 22. He set a career mark in wins with 18, good for most in MLS in 2015, while allowing the fewest goals in the Eastern Conference, earning nine clean sheets in the process.

The Red Bulls have sold out the second leg of the Eastern Conference final of the MLS playoffs, the Daily News has learned, selling 25,219 tickets. English play-by-play can also be found on Sirius XM Channel 85.
