FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — For the second consecutive weekend, a D.C. United match flipped from glory to gory in a matter of minutes, from three probable points to one or none, from first-place certainty to a muddled race.
But after conceding a goal while holding a man advantage Saturday, United received the benefits of video replay in the dying moments and salvaged a 1-1 draw with the New England Revolution on Wayne Rooney’s 90th-minute penalty kick.
United was fortunate to take something from the match after Juan Agudelo seized on lazy defending to put the shorthanded Revolution ahead in the 61st minute before an announced 20,131 at Gillette Stadium.
