FOXBOROUGH, Mass. – The New England Revolution (6-4-6, 24 pts.) wrapped up a two-game road swing with a 2-2 draw against the San Jose Earthquakes (2-9-4, 15 pts.) at Avaya Stadium on Wednesday evening. Diego Fagundez responded to an early goal from Earthquakes forward Danny Hoesen with a stunning free kick in the 31^st minute. Fagundez delivered the assist on Cristian Penilla's go-ahead goal 12 minutes later, but Hoesen leveled the score on the other side of halftime with an equalizer in the 51^st minute.

With a goal and an assist in tonight's match, Fagundez joins Penilla as one of nine MLS players with at least five goals and five assists this season. Fagundez, who started a match with the captain's armband for the first time in his MLS career, ties Penilla for the team lead in assists, and moves within three of Kelyn Rowe and Chris Tierney for third place in the club's record book.

Penilla scored the sixth goal of his debut MLS campaign in the 43^rd minute, which brings him within three goals of Teal Bunbury for the team lead. The Ecuadorian international owns the second most goals among all MLS newcomers, trailing only LAFC's Carlos Vela and LA Galaxy's Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who have both registered seven tallies this season.

By securing a point against San Jose, New England extends its unbeaten run in away matches to three games dating back to a 3-3 draw against Vancouver Whitecaps FC on May 26. The Revolution also secured a result after conceding the first goal for the fifth time this season.

New England returns to action on Saturday, June 30, when the club hosts Eastern Conference rival D.C. United at Gillette Stadium. The match kicks off at 7:30 p.m. ET on NBC Sports Boston. Fans may also listen on the radio in English on 98.5 The Sports Hub and in Portuguese on 1260 AM Nossa Radio.
