FOXBOROUGH, Mass. – A small shift made a big difference for Andrew Farrell last Saturday night.
Farrell, who started the first 13 games of the season in central defense, moved to right back for the New England Revolution’s 2-1 win over Seattle Sounders FC. He put together a solid 90 minutes, registering a game-high six tackles while helping set up the Revolution’s opening goal.
“I thought he was excellent,” said head coach Jay Heaps. “I thought he did a really good job.”
It wasn’t a new spot for Farrell, but rather a return to his roots.
