HEADLINES

Third straight loss for Revolution: A pattern is developing, and it’s not a good one, folks. For the third consecutive matchup, New England earns no points and is now on a four-match winless streak thanks to a 2-0 loss to New York Red Bulls at Red Bull Arena, where the Revs are now 0-9-1 in 10 regular-season visits to this Garden State House of Horrors. The loss evens the Revolution up at 7-7-7 on the season.

Poor marking, bad foul leads to both Red Bulls goals: The match had been all square, but New York started to get a better foothold in it around the hour mark and had the Revs on the back foot for the last half an hour. In the 68th minute, a foul by Claude Dielna yields a free kick out on the flank, and the resulting service sees Daniel Royer slide past an unknowing Andrew Farrell as Matt Turner is charging out to make a play, and Royer taps it in for the first goal. 11 minutes more elapsed before a nice service by Kaku sees Bradley Wright-Phillips shake Jalil Anibaba away and head it in beyond Turner’s dive.

“I think we played a good 75 percent of the game, but that won’t cut it. To be honest, we put everything we had into it physically, but we weren’t quite as sharp as we needed to be.”
