CHESTER, Pa. – Sunday afternoon’s Decision Day showdown with the Philadelphia Union didn’t go to plan for the New England Revolution, who started the day in 6th place in the Eastern Conference but finished it in 8th, although they’d already clinched their spot in the Audi 2020 MLS Cup Playoffs.
The Revs’ 2-0 loss to the Union secured a first-ever trophy for the hosts – Philadelphia claiming the Supporters’ Shield with the league’s best regular-season record – while victories for the New York Red Bulls and Nashville SC were enough to force the Revolution into the Play-In Round, where they’ll host the 9th-seeded Montreal Impact on Friday, November 20.
