New England Revolution unlucky turn of events

As if the first half couldn’t get any worse for the New England Revolution, this free kick from Nguyen was turned away by both posts. After going down 2-0 early and nearly going down 3-0, the Revolution keeper denied the Union from the penalty spot.

With a glimpse of hope, Nguyen hit this wonderful free kick. Although a great hit, the goal did not come to pass, as it was saved twice by the keeper’s best friend.

Howwwwww does this @LeeNguyen24 free kick stay out? #PHIvNE https://t.co/LAhKtx0DqQ

Not only was Nguyen’s effort turned away by the posts, but the deflection bounces straight to Union keeper Andre Blake.
