FOXBOROUGH, Mass. – In the aftermath of last weekend’s frustrating loss to D.C. United, goalkeeper Cody Cropper estimated that the New England Revolution would need to take 21 points from their final nine games to make a serious push for the playoffs.
That’s a daunting task – particularly with four road games still on the schedule – but recent history paints the Revolution as a side as capable as any of making a late-season run.
Last year the Revs went 5-2-0 in their last seven games, while back in 2014 they went on a 9-1-1 stretch to close the season and catapult themselves into the playoffs.
