Late goals secure New England Revolution win

By Simon Sinclair, Reporter | 21 July 2013

Late goals from Jose Concalves and Diego Fagundez earn New England Revolution the victory over Columbus Crew in their MLS Eastern Conference clash.

Two late goals earned New England Revolution an away win over Columbus Crew in their MLS Eastern Conference clash.

The visitors started the game strongly and should have been ahead in the 23rd minute, but Chris Tierney could not turn Dimitry Imbongo's ball across the face of goal into the net.

Columbus responded to this pressure but Bernardo Anor could only direct his header straight at Bobby Shuttleworth from Federico Higuain's free kick into the penalty area.

Higuain himself went close in the 73rd minute when he raided down the right beating two defenders, but his shot went the wrong side of the post and into the side-netting.

Just as the game looked to be heading for a draw, Jose Goncalves rose highest in the penalty area to head New England into the lead in the 91st minute, his effort being deflected past Andy Gruenebaum at his near post.

Diego Fagundez made sure of the three points for the Revolution as he slotted the ball past Gruenebaum after being put clear of the Crew defence.
