ORLANDO, Fla. (May 10, 2025) – The New England Revolution (5-4-2; 17 pts.) battled Orlando City SC (4-2-6; 18 pts.) to a thrilling 3-3 draw on Saturday night at Inter&Co Stadium. Orlando midfielder Martín Ojeda netted a hat trick, but Carles Gil’s goal-and-assist performance helped the Revolution erase a pair of deficits and stretch their unbeaten run to five games in league play.

Ojeda scored twice in the opening 33 minutes to give the hosts a 2-0 lead, snapping the Revolution's shutout streak at 409 minutes, 10 minutes shy of equaling the club record. Facing a two-goal deficit, New England rallied to even the proceedings before halftime, ending Orlando’s own MLS-long shutout streak at 563 minutes. Midfielder Alhassan Yusuf cut into the lead with his first MLS goal. Ignatius Ganago whipped in a cross from the left edge of the penalty area toward the back post, where Ilay Feingold tapped a cutback pass for the Nigerian to slot home from close range.

Yusuf's midfield partner, Matt Polster, leveled the score with his 10th career goal, his first since July 2023, flicking a header past Orlando goalkeeper Pedro Gallese off a Gil cross. Gil’s assist was the 75^th of his MLS career, extending his club record. Feingold earned a secondary assist on Polster’s tally, giving the Israeli his first two MLS helpers and the first multi-assist game of his professional career.

As New England pushed forward in search of a fourth consecutive road win, momentum swung back towards the hosts when Ojeda put the Lions back ahead in the 55^th minute, completing his hat trick from the penalty spot after Orlando’s Joran Gerbet was fouled in the box. With time ticking down, Ganago was taken down in the Lions' penalty area. Gil stepped to the spot and calmly finished past Gallese for his sixth goal of the season. The Spaniard's 11th goal-and-assist performance in MLS also makes him only the fifth Revolution player with 50 goals in all competitions.

Revolution goalkeeper Aljaž Ivačič came up with five saves on the night to help secure the point for New England. The Slovenian's individual shutout streak (409 minutes) now stands as the second longest in team annals.

The Revolution are back home next Saturday, May 17 to host the San Jose Earthquakes in the original MLS teams' first meeting since 2019. The 7:30 p.m. ET kickoff from Gillette Stadium is available to watch on MLS Season Pass on Apple TV.
