Hey Junior Revs!
It’s been an exciting beginning of the 2026 season! The Revs opened at home with a huge 6-1 win against FC Cincinnati. Five different Revolution players found the back of the net, as Brayan Ceballos, Dor Turgeman, Alhassan Yusuf, Griffin Yow, and Peyton Miller all scored. In net for New England, Matt Turner made seven saves in his 47th regular season win, which moves him into second place on the club's all-time list!
The match was also highlighted by Diego Fagundez’s return to New England! Fagundez returned to the Revs where he spent the first 10 seasons of his MLS career as the club’s first Homegrown Player signing. He recorded his 80th MLS assist during the home opener; we hope to see plenty more points from him in the future!
If you didn’t make it to the home opener don’t worry, there are still two more home matches this month. April 4 against CF Montreal is our 3rd annual Gaming Night! Join us in Fan Zone to celebrate eSports at Gillette Stadium, play with local collegiate eSports teams, and take a photo with the Revs 2024 eMLS trophies. This match will also feature the New England Revolution Mobile Polar Plunge! Special Olympics Massachusetts will bring their mobile plunge tank to Fan Zone for fans, families, and supporters to “Be Bold and Get Cold” and participate in the Revolution Mobile Polar Plunge. Register online here to take part in the Mobile Polar Plunge. The following home match is the Olivia Knighton Foundation Match on April 11!
