FOXBOROUGH, Mass. – One chaotic sequence early in the second half largely defined Saturday afternoon’s 1-1 draw between the New England Revolution and Toronto FC.
With the Revs leading 1-0 courtesy of Kelyn Rowe’s first-half header, Gershon Koffie was scythed down by TFC defender Justin Morrow in the 57th minute. Play was allowed to continue as the Revolution attacked, but just moments later Teal Bunbury was chopped down inside the box.
New England’s penalty shouts were waved away, however, and immediately TFC sprang a counter as Jozy Altidore teed up Sebastian Giovinco for a deflected equalizer.
