The New England Revolution’s 11-game unbeaten streak came to an end on Saturday when they were downed 2-0 by Los Angeles FC. Here are three thoughts from the game:
- LAFC got their first goal by exploiting the wide areas. Going into this game, I was curious to see how the Revs would deal with LAFC’s attacking talent. In recent weeks, the Revolution have played with a narrow midfield on the right side, asking Brandon Bye to get forward and provide width. The sophomore right back had been fine in this role but he hadn’t faced a talent like Diego Rossi.
