For the second consecutive year, Sporting return home needing to overturn a first-leg deficit in the conference semifinals. Last season, Sporting won the return match 1-0 -- but lost on aggregate after losing 2-0 at Houston. "It’s good. You don’t always necessarily know if you’re always going to win when you go away from home, but to keep the scoreline the way we did is great," said SKC manager Peter Vermes. "It wasn’t frustrating at all. I thought we were really good playing away from home." ... Teams that have had the second leg at home have advanced 22 times over 42 two-leg series all-time in MLS. Teams winning the first leg have won 19 series; teams losing the first leg have won 11 series. “We remember last year how Houston was dropping, dropping and defending. We expect the same thing from [New England],” defender Aurelien Collin said. “It’s always easier to score one goal than two goals, so it was very important to score that goal. Hopefully the league would be like Europe – when you score away, it would double. We’re not there yet, so we just need to score a goal to tie it then score another one to win the semifinal.” ... Teal Bunbury was given the start in attack, his first appearance in the first XI since Aug. 23. Bunbury had come on as a substitute in six of the final eight games of the season. "We’re organized. I think (Lawrence Olum) and (Oriol Rosell) do a really good job of deciding who goes forward and who’s holding," said defender Seth Sinovic. "I think we’re balanced in the back, and going forward I thought Teal (Bunbury) made some great runs tonight, same with the outside guys C.J. (Sapong) and Jacob (Peterson). We had some chances." ... Collin scored his second career goal in the MLS Cup Playoffs, his first coming in 2011 vs. Colorado in the West semifinals. Three of the last four postseason goals scored by Sporting, dating back to 2011, have come from defenders. "(That) goal is very huge for us. It keeps us in the game. 2-0 is a steep hill, but 1-0 is at least something that, as a team we are able to get over," said Lawrence Olum. Added goalkeeper Jimmy Nielsen: “All I had in my head was that we needed at least one goal, and we got that goal. I still have a big belief that we can still turn this around.” The Andy Dorman goal was the first goal New England had scored against Sporting KC in any match since 2011. Sporting came into the series riding a streak of five consecutive shutouts in league matches; the goal ended a streak of 556 scoreless minutes. "We knew that we were in a different place, they’re in a different place –- we’re two different teams. ... I really don’t think we were thinking about them being able to stop us, I think we were just thinking about how we needed to play," said Revolution head coach Jay Heaps. ... Revolution goalkeeper Matt Reis has still not been on the losing end of a decision this season. Reis became the first goalkeeper in MLS history to go without a defeat in 10 or more starts when he posted a 7-0-4 record during the regular season. “Reisy's been huge all season,” defender Darrius Barnes said. “He made a huge save in the first half and then in the second half on Dom Dwyer. He's wise. He's a wise goalkeeper. I think he plays mind-games with the attackers a little bit. When you have the experience of a keeper like that and he has the talent, it makes it easy for a defender.” ... The Revolution won a game in the MLS Cup Playoffs for the first time since 2009, since a 2-1 win against Chicago in the Eastern Conference Semifinals. "A step forward, but at the same time it’s a very difficult road ahead," Heaps said. "If we’re talking three or four goals, then maybe this is a big step forward. But it’s a battle -- we have a one-goal lead. It’s halftime and we have a big, big battle going to Kansas City." ... The lone Sporting goal came following a corner kick. The Revolution allowed six goals from set pieces over the regular season -- just three teams conceded fewer from deadballs (VAN 3, TOR 4, DAL 5). "We knew they would be strong (on set pieces). They’ve scored a lot of their goals from set pieces. They scored last week against Philly on a set piece –- a long throw -– and they got some chances (Saturday) so we have to be smart in what we’re doing." ... Kelyn Rowe scored his first goal in his first appearance in the MLS Cup Playoffs -- and in the process became the youngest player in Revolution history to score a postseason goal (21 years, 335 days). "We like to get down and play a little bit. The first half was hard. I think that both teams were kind of just dumping it in and hoping for second balls," Rowe said. "You saw the game open up as the second half went through."

The Houston Dynamo once again cruised through a Knockout Round match, defeating an eight-man Montreal Impact 3-0 at BBVA Compass Stadium. The Dynamo were on top after just the the 16th minute. After Will Bruin played the ball to Ricardo Clark at the top of the box, Clark turned a snazzy backheel in traffic to put Bruin through, and he made no mistake with the ensuing finish past goalkeeper Troy Perkins. Just 11 minutes later the Dynamo doubled the lead. A charging Hernán Bernardello came crashing in to bring down Boniek García in the box for a clear penalty kick, and he stepped up himself to finish his own spot kick home. After Nelson Rivas was shown a second yellow for an elbow on Bruin in the second half, Bruin completed his double in the 71st minute. Corey Ashe hit a ball over the top to Bruin, who outpaced a defender and slipped wide to avoid Perkins before firing home from the top of the box. A late fracas saw Andrés Romero and Marco Di Vaio both sent off by referee Mark Geiger.

Seattle Sounders FC scored early and late and survived a red card to defeat the Colorado Rapids 2-0 at CenturyLink Field. The home side enjoyed the better of the play in the first half and finally broke through in the 28th minute. Leo Gonzalez set off on an overlapping run down the left flank and whipped in a cross that struck the head of a Rapids defender but went right to Brad Evans, who chested it down, lined up his shot and laced it home inside the far post for his first postseason goal since 2008. Sounders FC went down a man in the 85th minute when goalkeeper Michael Gspurning inexplicably came outside of his area to deal with a long clearance and handled it, resulting in a straight red card from referee Silviu Petrescu. But Eddie Johnson eased the home fans' fears when he took a pass from Clint Dempsey inside the penalty area, beat a defender and then fired a left-footed shot inside the near post to seal the match in the 89th minute.

The Houston Dynamo overcame a two-goal deficit in the second half against a 10-man New York Red Bulls, leaving the teams in a 2-2 draw at BBVA Compass Stadium. The Red Bulls -- who had won all three league meetings between the teams -- were two goals to the good before the game was barely a half-hour old. The opener came in the 22nd minute when Thierry Henry sent in a sublime delivery from the left and Tim Cahill struck with a trademark header. Ten minutes later it was 2-0 after a rapid counterattack that ended when Eric Alexander cut back in the box and fired past Hall. The Dynamo started their comeback in the 51st minute when Ricardo Clark latched on to a poor clearance at the top of the box and skimmed a low shot to the back of the net. Then after Jamison Olave received a red card in the 65th minute from referee Ricardo Salazar for a challenge on Houston striker Omar Cummings, the leveler came in the 90th minute. A Bobby Boswell header from a corner was saved by New York goalkeeper Luis Robles, but the rebound fell right to Cummings and he touched home from almost on the line.

The New England Revolution won their first MLS Cup Playoffs game in four seasons, capturing a 2-1 victory against Sporting Kansas City in the first leg at Gillette Stadium. After weathering a first-half storm, New England scored the opener 10 minutes after the interval. Sporting 'keeper Jimmy Nielsen saved an initial shot from Juan Agudelo from close range, but the effort then deflected toward the goal line where Andy Dorman tucked home from two yards. The Revolution doubled the advantage in the 67th minute. Lee Nguyen played Kelyn Rowe through on the right side of the penalty area, and he finished well with the outside of his foot for a precious second. Sporting reduced the deficit two minutes later after a scramble inside the penalty area when a free kick was partially cleared then sent back toward goal where Aurelien Collin lurked at the back post to tap home from close range.

The Portland Timbers took control of their Western Conference Semifinal Series with a 2-1 win over Seattle Sounders FC at CenturyLink Field in the club's first-ever MLS playoff game. The Timbers opened the scoring solidly against the run of play in the 15th minute. Jack Jewsbury placed an inch-perfect cross from the right corner and Ryan Johnson was able to lose his mark with a run to the near post, slipping a glancing header past Sounders goalkeeper Marcus Hahnemann from a tight angle. The Timbers were able to add a second goal in the 67th minute. Kalif Alhassan found himself unmarked on the right wing and put in an angled pass to Darlington Nagbe. His first touch took his past a defender and then he lethally struck with a right-footed shot inside the back post. Sounders FC did pull a goal back in the 90th minute, when Osvaldo Alonso gave his team a lifeline, pouncing on a ball that had fallen to his feet off a Shalrie Joseph header after a long throw from Brad Evans. But the Timbers held on for their first win ever at CenturyLink Field -- and in fact had never even led in a MLS game in Seattle.

The LA Galaxy claimed the advantage in their Western Conference Semifinal Series following a 1-0 victory against Real Salt Lake in the first leg at StubHub Center. The game's lone goal came just two minutes into the second half. Robbie Keane turned at the byeline on the left and rolled a pass all the way through the penalty area. Sean Franklin, well behind the play, stepped up and hit a rocket from nearly 30 yards out with the outside of his right foot inside the right-hand post. Galaxy goalkeeper Jaime Penedo was called upon to make just two saves in keeping the clean sheet in a game the Galaxy bossed from the outset, though RSL goalkeeper Nick Rimando also saw just two shots on target for the entire evening.

ALL-TIME PLAYOFFS RESULTS Overall: 1-0-0 Home: 1-0-0 Away: 0-0-0 Nov. 2, 2013 - Eastern Conference Semifinals - Leg 1 New England 2, Kansas City 1 Gillette Stadium (Foxborough, Mass.)

2013 MEETINGS March 23, 2013 New England 0, Kansas City 0 Gillette Stadium (Foxborough, Mass.) FOXBOROUGH, Mass. – Heavy wind made playing attractive soccer a futile effort at Gillette Stadium as the Revolution and Sporting Kansas City played to a rugged 0-0 draw. Both sides struggled with the conditions, which made passing nearly impossible and wreaked havoc on any balls played through the air. Even passes on the ground were at the mercy of the wind and at one point Sporting KC goalkeeper Jimmy Nielsen struggled to take a free kick when he couldn’t get the ball to sit still on the turf. August 10, 2013 Kansas City 3, New England 0 Sporting Park (Kansas City, Kan.) KANSAS CITY, Kan. – Kei Kamara scored two goals, both set up by Soony Saad on similar plays, as Sporting Kansas City earned a 3-0 victory over the Revolution at Sporting Park. Benny Feilhaber tallied Sporting KC’s final goal in stoppage time. The win extended Sporting KC’s undefeated streak against New England to six games – going 3-0-3 – dating back to July 2011. The Revs suffered their second loss in as many games, both by shutout.

2013 EASTERN CONFERENCE SEMIFINAL: SECOND LEG
TEAM NOTES POISED FOR FINAL RETURN The Revolution enters Wednesday’s second leg of the Eastern Conference Semifinal series against Sporting Kansas City in position to make its first appearance in the conference final since 2007 … up 2-1 on aggregate following Saturday’s win over Sporting KC at Gillette Stadium, the Revs need a win or draw to punch their ticket to their seventh Eastern Conference Championship in club history. HOW WEDNESDAY COULD PLAY OUT • If the Revs win or draw on Wednesday, they would advance to the Eastern Conference Championship • If Kansas City wins by two or more goals, Sporting KC will advance to the Eastern Conference Championship • If Kansas City wins by one goal, the teams will play a 30-minute extra time session 1. If either team scores at least one goal and ends the 30-minute session ahead, that team will advance to the conference championship 2. If the aggregate score is still tied after extra time, penalty kicks will be used to determine which team advances This Week’s MLS Cup Playoffs Schedule Wednesday, Nov. 6 8 p.m. ET – New York Red Bulls vs. Houston Dynamo (Harrison, N.J.), TV: Univision Deportes Series tied on aggregate, 2-2 9 p.m. ET – Sporting Kansas City vs. New England Revolution (Kansas City, Kan.), TV: CSN+ New England leads on aggregate, 2-1 Thursday, Nov. 7 9 p.m. ET – Real Salt Lake vs. LA Galaxy (Sandy, Utah), TV: ESPN2 LA leads on aggregate, 1-0 11 p.m. ET – Portland Timbers vs. Seattle Sounders FC (Portland), TV: NBC Sports Network Portland leads on aggregate, 2-1 Saturday, Nov. 8 2:30 p.m. ET – Eastern Conference Championship, Leg 1, TV: NBC Sunday, Nov. 9 9 p.m. ET – Western Conference Championship, Leg 1, TV: ESPN STAYING HOT AS TEMPS DIP While the New England temperatures are beginning to fall, the Revolution remains hot … the Revs are 5-0-2 in their last seven matches overall (since Sept. 21), and have won their last four matches in a row dating back to Oct. 12 … included in that span were matches against the other four playoff teams from the Eastern Conference (against whom the Revs have gone 2-0-2 in this stretch). BIG ON YOUTH, SHORT ON PLAYOFF EXPERIENCE While the Revs have benefitted from a mixture of youth and experience all season, the youth scale has tipped in the playoffs … Saturday night’s starting lineup included eight players making their debuts in the MLS Cup Playoffs, and only three players – goalkeeper Matt Reis, defender Darrius Barnes and midfielder Andy Dorman – with experience in the MLS postseason … additionally, second-half substitute Chad Barrett also has extensive MLS Cup Playoff experience with Chicago (2005-07) and LA (2011-12), but it was his first postseason appearance with the Revs. PLAYOFF MUSTACHES, NOT PLAYOFF BEARDS FOR THE REVS On Wednesday, fans may see an unusually high number of Revs sporting the beginnings of mustaches … the team is not eschewing playoff beards, but rather several members of the Revolution are participating in Movember, the annual November men’s cancer awareness campaign … Revs players who have committed to growing Mos (mustaches) to support Movember’s mission are Kevin Alston, Diego Fagundez and Chris Tierney as part of Gillette’s #TeamGillette, and Scott Caldwell, Ryan Guy, Andrew Farrell, Stephen McCarthy and Kelyn Rowe as part of the Revolution’s team … friends, family and fans are encouraged to show their support for men’s cancer awareness by donating to the Revolution’s Movember team (www.mobro.co/nerevolution), or to individual MOs’ (mustache growers’) campaigns. REIS JUST KEEPS STREAKING Matt Reis became the only goalkeeper in MLS history to finish a season undefeated when making 10 or more starts after he went 7-0-4 in his 12 league appearances … he has kept his undefeated run going into the postseason now, racking up another win on Saturday night … on the season in all competitions, Reis is 10-1-4, his lone loss coming against eventual U.S. Open Cup champion D.C. United in the teams’ quarterfinal match-up in June. REIS HITS THE BIG 2-0 Saturday night’s start was Matt Reis’ 20th postseason start as a member of the Revolution … he is the fifth player in Revs’ team history to reach 20 postseason starts, joining Jay Heaps (28), Steve Ralston (24), and Taylor Twellman and Shalrie Joseph (21 each) … Reis is now
9-6-5 in postseason action with the Revs, posting a 0.89 goals against average and seven shutouts. WINS IN A NEW CATEGORY Saturday’s win over Sporting KC was head coach Jay Heaps’ first postseason victory in coaching … the second-year manager is no stranger to the postseason, however, as he holds the Revolution record for postseason appearances as a player with 28 … Heaps is the fourth Revs coach to register a playoff appearance in New England. HISTORY REPEATS ITSELF? Saturday’s 2-1 win over Sporting Kansas City marked the Revs’ first playoff match at Gillette Stadium in four years and one day … prior to Saturday, the Revolution’s last playoff match at home came on Nov. 1, 2009 – also a 2-1 win as the third seed in the East, but over the Chicago Fire … the Revs can hope that history doesn’t repeat itself completely, though, as the Revs went on to drop the second match of the two-game series, losing at Chicago, 2-0, as the Fire advanced to the Eastern Conference Final. UNDEFEATED AT HOME IN MLS PLAYOFFS Saturday’s win against Sporting KC extended the Revolution’s postseason unbeaten streak at home to 14 games (10-0-4) as the team has never lost a home game in Foxborough … included in that mark is 1-0-1 mark at Foxboro Stadium and a 9-0-3 mark at Gillette Stadium … MLS Cup 2002, which was played at Gillette Stadium, is considered a neutral venue by MLS because it was a predetermined site, and the extra-time loss to the LA Galaxy is not counted in the Revs’ home postseason record, rather its neutral-site record … considering the MLS Cup loss in the team’s postseason record at Gillette Stadium, the Revs still remain on an ninegame undefeated run (8-0-1) at home in the playoffs since 2003. LONG TIME COMING FOR DORMAN ESPN FC writer Jeff Carlisle listed Andy Dorman among six under-the-radar players in the MLS Cup Playoffs, and his prediction could not have been more spot on … making his first postseason start since MLS Cup 2006, Dorman scored the Revs’ first goal on Saturday and proved to be influential in the midfield for the Revs … Dorman’s goal was his first-ever postseason goal, adding to his two previous postseason assists … Dorman’s last postseason appearance came in MLS Cup 2007, when he came on as a second-half sub against Houston at RFK Stadium, but prior to Saturday’s start against Sporting KC, Dorman’s last start in the postseason was MLS Cup 2006 (against Houston at Pizza Hut Park). ROWE’S A SOPHOMORE SENSATION Kelyn Rowe has been a huge factor for the Revs this year, and his goal on Saturday in the playoffs only improved his season … Jay Heaps’ first-ever draft pick (number three overall in the 2012 SuperDraft) has had a tremendous sophomore campaign, scoring 12 goals and adding nine assists in all competitions … that total includes a seven-goal, eight assist performance in 33 MLS regular-season games, and a four-goal, one assist performance in three U.S. Open Cup matches, as well as one goal in the MLS Cup Playoffs. THE ROWEING CONTINUES Kelyn Rowe scored the Revs’ second goal on Saturday against Sporting KC, and once again celebrated with his now customary goal celebration: Roweing … Rowe, who has done the celebration twice before, was joined by several other teammates on the north field boards and “Rowed” to celebrate the goal. BARNES STEPS BACK IN Darrius Barnes became the third different Revolution player to start at left back in the last three games when he lined up on Saturday against Sporting KC … Chris Tierney, the team’s everyday left back this season, was unavailable with a right foot issue that he suffered in his last start on Oct. 19 against Columbus … Kevin Alston – who started the season at left back before receiving his chronic myelogenous leukemia diagnosis in April – was unavailable after suffering a right hamstring injury in his last start at Columbus on Oct. 27 … Barnes, who is one of only eight Revs players on the roster with MLS Cup playoffs experience (with any team), last started in the postseason in his rookie year (2009) – the last time the Revolution qualified for the playoffs. REVS SECOND-BEST IMPROVED TEAM IN 2013 Revs head coach Jay Heaps has guided the Revs to vast improvements in 2013, as the Revolution was the second-most improved team in MLS this season ... in 2012, the Revs finished with nine wins and 35 points, but saw their point total increase by 16 points to 51 points in 2013 ... the team’s 16-point improvement was the second-best in MLS behind Portland’s 23-point increase ... their 2012 record and point total saw them finish in ninth place in the East, but in 2013, the Revs jumped all the way to third place at season’s end.
2013 EASTERN CONFERENCE SEMIFINAL: SECOND LEG EAST RESULTS HELP BOOST RECORD With a 12-7-6 record against Eastern Conference teams in 2013, the Revs posted their greatest win total against conference foes in club history ... the previous best was nine wins in 1999 (9-11) and 2005 (9-5-4) ... the league’s unbalanced, conference-heavy schedule has contributed to the Revs’ high win total, but the team’s 12 wins this year surpasses the team’s total wins against the East in the last two years combined (nine: 3-6-7 in 2011 and 6-13-6 in 2012, the first year of the unbalanced schedule). DEFENSE FINISHES STRONG, EXAMPLE OF SEASON-LONG STRENGTH The Revs defense ranked high all season and proved why in recent games … on Oct. 27 inthe season finale, the Revs held a 1-0 lead from the 28th minute on to secure the win and advance to MLS Cup Playoffs for the first time since 2009 … on the season, the Revs recorded a 1.12 goals against average to tie for the third-best mark in the league … additionally, the team posted a club-record 14 shutouts to rank second in the league … the team’s 1.12 GAA was the second-lowest in club history, three one-hundredths shy of the 2006 record mark of 1.09 GAA. DEFENSE LED BY ULTIMATE CAPTAIN Jose Goncalves, in his first season with the Revs, has anchored the stout Revolution defense all season … earning the captain’s armband in May, Goncalves played every minute of all 34 games this season – one of only three field players in MLS to do so – on the way to earning front-runner status as the league’s defender of the year … Goncalves also scored a pair of crucial game-winning goals (at Columbus on July 20 and at Montreal on Oct. 12), while anchoring a top-three MLS defense all year … the team’s 14 shutouts this season are a team record, and the team’s GAA decreased from 1.29 in 2012 to 1.12 in 2013. GONCALVES CEMENTS PLACE AS DEFENDER, NEWCOMER FRONT-RUNNER The Revs’ defense has been rock solid since newcomer Jose Goncalves arrived via Switzerland’s Sion SC this off-season … the 27-year-old Portuguese center back has anchored one of MLS’ top defenses, and he is the only Revs player to play every minute of every game this season … Goncalves has been the team’s vocal leader - and club captain - all while helping integrating nine different defenders into the Revs’ four-man lineup through 34 games ... a mid-season favorite for both MLS Defender of the Year and Newcomer of the Year, Goncalves has been continually reinforcing his position as the awards’ front-runner with his recent performances. FAMILIAR PLACE FOR REIS In 12 appearances in 2013, Matt Reis played 995 minutes, qualifying for the MLS leaderboards... Reis finished the regular season with an 0.72 goals against average, the best mark is MLS ... the 0.72 GAA is Reis’ best single-season mark, surpassing an 0.96 GAA he posted in 2009. FAGUNDEZ CRACKS CLUB TOP-10 SCORING LISTS … Diego Fagundez moved into a tie for 10th place with Andy Dorman (17 goals) on the club career scoring chart on Oct. 19 after scoring against Columbus … the midfielder is also tied for eighth in game-winning goals (six) on the club career chart … Fagundez has enjoyed a breakout season with 13 goals and seven assists in 2013 after scoring four goals and adding three assists in his first two seasons combined with the Revs. … AND BECOMES MLS’ TOP TEENAGE TALENT With his 17th career goal on against Columbus on Oct. 19, Diego Fagundez became MLS’ highest-scoring teenager in league history … he entered the game tied with Eddie Gaven, who scored 16 goals in his teenage years … Fagundez now claims the record to himself, and also has a full season left to add to his total as he does not turn 20 until February 14, 2015. TIERNEY MOVING UP THE CHARTS Chris Tierney continues his climb up the Revs’ career charts … now in his sixth MLS season, Tierney is currently ranked in the top 10 in nine different club career records, including: appearances (eighth, 131), starts (120), minutes played (eighth, 10,537), assists (eighth, 21), game-winning assists (third, 10), corner kicks (third, 216), assists per game (fifth, 0.16) and assists per 90 minutes (fifth, 0.18) ... Tierney is the Revs’ second-longest tentured player on its current roster, behind 11-year man Matt Reis. DIEGO DOES IT WITHOUT HELP Of Diego Fagundez’s 13 goals this year, all 13 have come from the run of play ... looking at the league’s top six goal scorers, only Marco Di Vaio (20 goals, all from the run of play), and Dominic Oduro (13 goals, all from the run of play) can claim all their goals from the run of play ... Vancouver’s Camilo Sanvezzo (22 goals, five from PKs), Chicago’s Mike Magee (21 goals, four from PKs), and LA’s Robbie Keane (15 goals, five from PKs) – the league’s first, second and fourth-leading goal scorers – have benefited from being their team’s penalty taker. FAGUNDEZ FINDS HIS TEAMMATES Diego Fagundez has recorded seven assists this season, tied for second on the club ... save for Robbie Keane and his 11 assists, Fagundez has more assists than any of the league’s top six goal scorers this year, and the fourth-highest assist total of any MLS player with 10 or more goals this year (Keane - 16 goals, 11 assists; Federico Higuan - 11 goals, nine assists; Landon Donovan - 10 goals, nine assists).
YOUNGINS GUNNIN’ With five of the team’s 11 starters 23 years old or younger on Saturday against Kansas City, almost half the team’s players were “young guns” ... with Diego Fagundez (18), Andrew Farrell (21), Kelyn Rowe (21), Dimitry Imbongo (23) and Juan Agudelo (20) all starting, the Revs fielded an incredibly young team where the field players’ average age was 23.8 years old (25.1 years old including goalkeeper - and 38-year-old - Matt Reis). ACADEMY SYSTEM PAYING OFF FOR THE REVS Two regular Revs starters are products of the team’s own MLS youth academy program, and Homegrown players overall have been a tremendous boost to the club this year … the Revs’ products include Diego Fagundez, (31 games, 2,427 minutes, team-leading 13 goals and seven assists) and Scott Caldwell (29 games, 2,174 minutes, two assists), who were signed from the Revolution Academy … Juan Agudelo (acquired via trade from Chivas USA) is a product of the New York Red Bull’s Academy and has played 20 games overall (1,402 minutes) and scored nine goals and two assists this season … Fagundez (18 years old) and Agudelo (20 years old) have combined to score 20 of the team’s 49 goals this year, while Fagundez and Caldwell (22 years old) have combined for nine of the team’s 45 assists. REVS’ HOMEGROWNS PROVIDING LEAGUE’S BEST BANG The Revs’ own Homegrown duo of Diego Fagundez and Scott Caldwell was this year’s topproducing Homegrown products of any team’s own currenly-rostered Homegrown players ... their 13 goals topped all Homegrown players while the pair’s combined total of 51 starts ranked second ... the combined 4,601 minutes played ranked second among all teams’ Homegrowns (Columbus had 57 starts and 5,106 minutes between four players) ... additionally, the Revs were third in games played (60, to Columbus’s 68 spread over four players and LA’s 64 spread over four players), and tied for first in assists with nine. CALDWELL COMING THROUGH Scott Caldwell has quietly worked his way into the MLS rookie of the year debate with unheralded strong, consistent play throughout the season … Caldwell proved it again against Philadelphia on August 25 recording his second assist of the season ... Caldwell, who primarily plays as a holding defensive midfielder, played a perfectly weighted through ball to Diego Fagundez who finished his eighth goal of the season ... often underrated, his teammates have made their case: @juanagudelo (July 17) - “Scott Caldwell is the most underrated midfielder in the league. #NERevs” and @2Fast2Farrell (Aug. 18) - “Watching replay of the game last night have to say my man @scaldwell15 balled out, doesn’t get enough credit for his great play #balla”. 250 IS THE NUMBER FOR REIS Matt Reis made his 250th start in goal as a member of the Revs in New York on Oct. 5 … Reis is second only to Shalrie Joseph in games played (254 to Joseph’s 261) and games started (252 to Joseph’s 254) as a member of the Revolution … he made his 250th appearance for the Revs on Sept. 28 … Reis also owns almost every New England goalkeeping record including games played in goal (254), games started in goal (253), minutes played in goal (22,697), goals against average (1.31), wins (93), saves (989) shutouts (66) and save percentage (72.3) … Reis is in his 16th MLS season, and his 11th with the Revs, after beginning his career with LA in 1998. DEFENSIVE ROTATION While the Revs continue to post one of the league’s best defenses, it hasn’t been because of consistency on the field ... a total of nine different players have started and played along the defense this year, but the Revolution still rank high in MLS in team defense ... Kevin Alston, Darrius Barnes, Bilal Duckett, Andrew Farrell, Ryan Guy, Jose Goncalves, Stephen McCarthy, A.J. Soares and Chris Tierney have all played along the backline this season. HE IS IRONMAN Jose Goncalves was one of just three field players to play every minute of every game for his team during the 2013 regular season ... Goncalves started at center back for the Revs for all 34 games, playing a total of 3,060 minutes ... Chicago’s Jalil Anibaba and Austin Berry were the only other two field players to play all 3,060 minutes for their clubs. “HOMETOWN” FEEL ON THE ROSTER Four players on the Revs’ roster are New England natives, giving the team a true hometown feel … Scott Caldwell (Braintree, Mass.), Charlie Davies (Manchester, N.H.), Diego Fagundez (Leominster, Mass.), Chris Tierney (Wellesley, Mass.) are all New England products, growing up in the Bay State or the Granite State … both Caldwell and Fagundez played for the Revolution Academy and are Homegrown players … Caldwell was the youth teams’ first-ever captain and just completed his stellar four-year career at Akron. MLS INSIDER: THE GREATEST SAVE Goalkeeper Matt Reis makes saves for a living, but on April 15, he made the greatest save of his life … standing at the finish line of the Boston Marathon with his son and family while waiting for his wife, Nicole, to cross, Reis’ family was shocked by the bombings … his father-inlaw, John Odom, was critically injured, and Reis helped save his life … check out the touching MLS Insider feature on the Reis/Odom story on revolutionsoccer.net or mlssoccer.com.
