COLUMBUS, Ohio – Brad Knighton did everything he could to give the New England Revolution a fighting chance in Sunday night’s visit to MAPFRE Stadium.
The Revs goalkeeper matched his career high with seven saves – including many of the spectacular variety – but Ola Kamara still managed to break through twice to hand Columbus Crew SC a 2-0 victory and snap New England’s three-game winning streak in the process.
“He kept us in it,” head coach Jay Heaps said of Knighton’s performance. “Columbus played well tonight, and Brad had to make some saves, and Brad kept us in the game even up until the end.
