The New England Revolution (4W-1L-2D) didn’t start particularly well on Saturday night, but Bruce Arena’s men rebounded from an early deficit and flew to a convincing 3-1 win over the New York Red Bulls. With the win, the Revolution maintain their grip on first place in the East, two points ahead of second-place Orlando City SC (3-0-3).
In the opening half-hour of Saturday night’s fixture, the Revolution weren’t particularly impressive––in fact, they were quite poor. A 7th-minute goal from Red Bulls defender Andrés Reyes capped an impressive opening blitz from the Red Bulls, generating momentum that would fuel the Red Bulls for the first thirty minutes.
