Saturday was a bittersweet afternoon for New England Revolution striker Justin Rennicks.
The striker got his second straight start in 2022 and he didn’t let it go to waste. He tallied the first goal of his MLS career but New England would up losing 3-2.
Rennicks played 83 minutes before being replaced by Damian Rivera. Besides scoring the goal, the 23-year-old also won a penalty, had 24 touches, and completed 75 percent of his passes.
“Getting the goal was great,” he said. “You know, it’s been a long time coming. It’s been four years now and I’ve just been waiting to get that goal, so I finally got it.
