Recap | Revs score three late goals to claim historic 3-3 draw with Rapids | New England Revolution

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (June 28, 2025) – The New England Revolution (6-6-6; 24 pts.) rallied back from a three-goal deficit to draw the Colorado Rapids (7-8-5; 26 pts.) 3-3, on Saturday night. After conceding a third goal to the visiting Rapids shortly after halftime, an own goal and late tallies by Carles Gil and Maxi Urruti gave the Revolution a hard-fought point in the final match of a three-game homestand.

New England nearly opened the scoring in the seventh minute when Peyton Miller launched a shot on target, set up by a pass from Alhassan Yusuf, who made his 25th MLS appearance tonight. Yusuf connected with one of New England's eight first-half corners with an attempt in the 20th minute, but it was saved by Rapids goalkeeper Nicholas Hansen.

Colorado struck first in the 29th minute on a counter attack finished off by midfielder Calvin Harris, who capitalized on a second opportunity after Revolution goalkeeper Aljaž Ivačič's initial save. The Rapids added to their lead in the 40th minute as forward Rafael Navarro converted inside the box, assisted by Darren Yapi.

Forward Leo Campana, in his first start since returning from injury, responded with a powerful shot from outside the area, but it was saved by Hansen. Campana and Luca Langoni, who relieved an injured Tomás Chancalay in the 40th minute, both recorded headed shots at the end of the half. The Revolution entered the intermission scoreless, despite controlling the opening stanza with 72.2 percent possession and 10 shot attempts.

To start the second half, Yapi logged his second assist of the match by setting up Ted Ku-Dipietro's goal in the 55th minute, extending the lead to 3-0. Three minutes later, New England began their charge back into the match as Gil danced on the left side of the box and sent in a dangerous cross, which Colorado’s Sam Vines deflected into his own net.

New England deployed several substitutions with Maxi Urruti and Ilay Feingold coming into the match to close the two-goal gap. Luis Diaz also made his 100th MLS appearance as an 81st-minute substitute. Soon after, the Revolution were awarded a penalty kick after Gil was pulled down in the box. The captain calmly converted his seventh goal of the season to make it 3-2.

In stoppage time, Tanner Beason juked a defender and curled a cross into the box directly onto Urruti's head. The veteran forward nodded his header into the corner of the net for the dramatic equalizer, his second goal of the campaign. With the tying goal, the Revolution erased a three-goal deficit to earn a result for the first time in club history.

The Revolution will head west next weekend to visit Portland Timbers FC on Saturday, July 5. The 10:30 p.m. ET kickoff from Providence Park is available to watch with MLS Season Pass on Apple TV in English and Spanish.
