BRADENTON, Fla. – Wednesday morning’s wild win over the New York Red Bulls provided a solid base for the New England Revolution’s preseason preparations.
Now, it’s time to build.
Against the Red Bulls, head coach Brad Friedel tasked the Revs with translating the lessons they’d learned through the first 10 days of training camp into game action; when to press, where to press, which spots to pick up at which times, etc.
It was a successful first exercise and a solid opening test, but the work is only beginning as Friedel and his staff will now instill more complex tactics and philosophies ahead of Saturday afternoon’s meeting with Swedish club Malmo FF.
