FOXBOROUGH, Mass. – The point earned in Sunday night’s 1-1 draw with the Portland Timbers could prove critical for the New England Revolution come October, but for now, perhaps more important is the boost that result offers the club ahead of their return home this weekend.
Lee Nguyen’s late equalizer at Providence Park provided an emotional lift for the Revs, and it gives them back-to-back positive results following their 5-2 romp over Minnesota United FC in their home opener.
Four points from two games does not a winning streak make, but the players and coaches can certainly feel the pendulum swinging in their favor after opening the season with a pair of losses.
