Revolution season reaches new low with loss to last-place Montreal
But Prince Owusu equalized six minutes later for Montreal (4-15-6, 18 points), Dante Sealy slammed home the winner in the 36th, and substitute Olger Escobar — a Lynn native and 2023 Revolution Academy Player of the Year whose rights New England traded in April — scored his first MLS goal in the fifth minute of second-half stoppage time. New England's win at Montreal on May 31 is its lone victory in its last 14 league matches, a 1-7-6 run that has it 8 points behind the ninth-place Red Bulls (who play Saturday night) for the East's final playoff spot. Advertisement Owusu, a late addition to the starting lineup after former Revolution striker Giacomo Vrioni was scratched following warmups, outmuscled Wyatt Omsberg at the penalty spot for his goal in the ninth minute. Sealy's finish followed a deft touch from US international Caden Clark, and the 18-year-old Escobar roofed a left foot over Aljaz Ivacic (two saves) from 6 yards out. Advertisement Outside of Chancalay's goal, New England's other two shots on target came from Langoni, who had a rebound cleared off the line by midfielder Joel Waterman in the 85th. Montreal goalie Jonathan Sirois's best play of the night came when he reversed course to push a deflected Chancalay cross off the line in the 53d minute. Gil got a rightfooted rocket past Sirois in the 70th, but it slammed off the crossbar. Leo Campana, New England's record acquisition at striker this winter, did not have a shot on target. On a night of squandered chances, the most notable was his failing to redirect a powerful Chancalay free kick in the 27th minute, the ball whizzing around his head and out of play. The Revolution are off for two weeks while last year's playoff teams participate in the Leagues Cup. They play their third straight at Gillette Stadium on Aug. 9 against D.C. United.

CF Montreal extend Revs' winless stretch to nine in 3-1 win
(Photo credit: Eric Canha-Imagn Images) Prince Owusu scored his team-leading 11th goal and league-worst CF Montreal defeated the New England Revolution 3-1 to halt a four-match winless run on Friday night in Foxborough, Mass. Dante Sealy had what proved to be the match-winner later in the first half and Olger Escobar scored a third in second-half stoppage time for Montreal (4-15-6, 18 points), which earned a victory two days after the club published an open letter to fans apologizing for its extended struggles. The Canadian side began the day 18 points out of the final Eastern Conference playoff spot. Tomas Chancalay scored his fourth goal for New England (6-11-7, 25 points), which lost its third straight and saw its own winless skid extended to nine. The Revolution have conceded 21 times in their last nine games, and 10 in their last three. Owusu pulled Montreal level with some ruthless striker play in the ninth minute, and only six minutes after Chancalay's opener. After receiving Dawid Bugaj's pass from the right with his back to goal, the brawny striker used his body to shield a defender, spun, then fired a low finish past Aljaz Ivacic from near the penalty spot. Sealy's go-ahead strike in the 36th came from a similar area but was simpler, with Caden Clark providing the final pass into the box and Sealy hammering a half-volley past Ivacic in stride. Chancalay and Carles Gil were at the root of New England's best chances to pull level. In the 53rd minute, Gil played Chancalay down the left, whose cross took a heavy deflection and forced Jonathan Sirois into a scrambling stop at his near post. In the 70th, Gil unleashed a powerful strike that had Sirois beaten but rattled the crossbar. Then in the 85th, Chancalay also got the ball past the Montreal keeper, only to see his effort cleared off the line by defender Joel Waterman. On the other end, Owusu nearly doubled his total for the night in the 90th minute when his low effort beat Ivacic but struck the right post. Then came Escobar's finish from close range, hammered emphatically into the roof of the net to seal the outcome.

Tomás Chancalay's injury is ‘minor,' but still could keep Revolution forward out on Saturday
New England (6-6-6, 24 points) begins a stretch of five matches in 15 days on Saturday at the Timbers (8-5-6, 30 points), who sit fourth in the Western Conference. Inter Miami makes a midweek visit to Gillette Stadium on July 9. Related : Advertisement The injury came in Chancalay's 11th appearance and sixth start in all competitions since he missed 11 months following an ACL tear. He had played the full 90 minutes for the first time this season in last Wednesday's On a team which has struggled for not just goals, but shots — New England ranks 22nd and 27th in the 30-team league, respectively — Chancalay has been a bright spot. Prone to shooting and scoring in bunches when healthy, he had goals in three of his six starts prior to Saturday. Advertisement His injury is one of a slew to hit the Revolution's forward corps this season. Asked for his thoughts on what feels like an excessive number of losses, Porter pointed to the histories of the players involved. "Our fitness coach, along with us, we collaborate to plan the training loads, and we have nailed the loads. In fact, we have been under on the loads more than over,' he said. 'A lot of it is previous injury history, when you look at the majority of the guys who have had injuries in the past, which usually means that sometimes, when you are playing a lot of games, you get injuries in the future and the present. 'Leo [Campana] has had some injuries in the past. Hopefully, we can get him healthy the rest of the year. Tomás as well. We're always reflecting and looking at it.' Saturday's draw, the first in a match the Revolution trailed by at least three goals, still capped a winless homestand (0-2-1). It left New England 11th in the Eastern Conference, four points out of the playoff places, at the start of a six-match July. Three of the first four of those are on the road, with the lone Foxborough match in the next two weeks Miami's visit. Advertisement 'We've shown that in [May], we had a long run of games away from home and we were able to pick up significant points,' said midfielder Matt Polster, back healthy again after an illness kept him out of the Nashville match. 'We'll have to do the same again, but we need to find a way to also be much better at home.'

Somerville's Cristiano Oliveira scores winner for Revolution in US Open Cup at Rhode Island FC
Advertisement Cristiano finds the back of the net!! 🔥 — New England Revolution (@NERevolution) New England advances to face fellow Major League Soccer original Chicago, which routed Detroit City of the USL Championship, 4-0. Sixteen MLS teams entered the domestic knockout competition in this week's fourth round, with all but one — New York City FC, which lost to the Championship's Pittsburgh Riverhounds — winning. The Revolution's starting lineup on Wednesday featured three season debuts — midfielder Allan Oyirwoth, goalkeeper Alex Bono, and Andrew Farrell, who extended his franchise record with his 383rd appearance across all competitions. Caleb Porter's attack was a quartet of players largely left out of the two-striker alignment that's sparked Advertisement The latter earned the honor of the first goal at RIFC's new home, in his first start since missing nearly 11 months with an ACL tear. After the reigning USL Eastern Conference champions held their own in the early going, delighting much of the announced 9,539, Urruti and Chancalay surged toward goal in a 2-on-2. A slide tackle from Rhode Island's Rio Hope-Gund knocked the ball to Chancalay, who took two touches left and drilled the ball through Vegas's legs for his first goal since last May 4. Tomas scored the 𝐅𝐈𝐑𝐒𝐓 𝐆𝐎𝐀𝐋 𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐑 at Centreville Bank Stadium! 🏟️ — New England Revolution (@NERevolution) The hosts broke the ice on the banks of the Seekonk River through Rodriguez, one of just four USLC midfielders to score in double digits out of the midfield last season. He deftly slotted a Noah Fuson cross inside the post past a diving Bono, a 10-year MLS veteran signed in December to back up Aljaz Ivacic. History in a highlight. Maxi Rodriguez scores the first RIFC goal at Centreville Bank Stadium 🫡 — Rhode Island FC (@RhodeIslandFC) Porter used Revolution II regulars Eric Klein, Liam Butts, Diarbian, and Oliveira off the bench in the second half, with Diaz playing 75 minutes and both Urruti and Chancalay 87. New England will seek a fifth straight MLS victory on Saturday night, when it visits Orlando City.
