The New England Revolution played the Seattle Sounders to a scoreless draw on Saturday. Here are three thoughts from the mundane affair.
- You didn’t miss much if you didn’t watch this game. All you need to know about this match happened in the 73rd minute when Nicolas Lodeiro attempted a half-field shot as a way of testing Matt Turner. That ambitious wish was the game’s first shot on goal. Seattle came to Gillette Stadium looking for a point, which frustrated the Revs, who love to exploit space by hitting team’s on the counter. The Revs did alter their play, but it wasn’t good enough.
