MINNESOTA UNITED
Match Schedule/Results:
-Sat Mar 25
New England v Minnesota - 1pm CT on MY29
My Notes On The Opponent:
- The Revs have played 2 games and lost them both (and both were on the road) - 1-0 at Colorado and 2-1 at Dallas.
- So they are desperate for a win.
- If New England, who isn't missing anyone due to injury, suspension or international call up, can't utterly destroy Minnesota this weekend then they have massive issues and would probably benefit from new leadership.
- With all of the Revs talented attackers I expect another bad loss for Minnesota.
- Who are those attackers? Lee Nguyen, Kei Kamara, Diego Fagundez, Juan Agudelo, Kelyn Rowe, Teal Bunbury and Daigo Kobayashi.
- And don't forget about the high quality delivery Chris Tierney contributes on set pieces.
- The Revs have only scored 1 goal so far - which came from a Penalty Kick by Nguyen.
- But the NER defense can be beaten. They have surrendered 3 goals in 2 games this season. And goalkeeper is a weakness for them.
