Revolution 2 - FC Cincinnati 2: 3 thoughts
Ahead of Independence Day, the New England Revolution faced off against FC Cincinnati at Gillette Stadium and headed into the holiday with only a single point.
It was a night of returns as Sebastian Lletget, Brandon Bye, and Henry Kessler returned to the starting XI. Matt Polster continued to miss out as he deals with a head injury and Tommy McNamara was suspended due to yellow card accumulation. With Bye and Kessler returning, it was the first time New England had a full-strength backline since May 15.
Due to their absences, New England had a new look midfield as Wilfrid Kaptoum and Maciel started the match. Gustavo Bou started up top once again flanked by Dylan Borrero and Lletget.
