New England Revolution comeback stuns DC United

Two early second-half goals help the New England Revolution edge past DC United for their second win in as many games.

DC United have made it five games without a win in Major League Soccer after being caught cold by a second-half fightback from the New England Revolution.

United were looking for a return to form on home soil and broke the deadlock after eight minutes when Luis Silva's strike from distance found the top corner.

Kelyn Rowe went within inches of an equaliser before the break, but had his effort from close range tipped round the post.

Early in the second half New England restored parity through Imbongo Boele, who bundled home after collecting a pass across goal from Chris Tierney.

On 63 minutes a quick turnaround was completed for the visitors, as Diego Fagundez reacted quickest to head home after Saer Sene effort had come back off the woodwork.

Lee Nguyen went close to extending New England's advantage soon after, with DC unable to mount a response.

The Revolution held on to claim back-to-back wins, while DC continue to search for their first win in July.
