TORONTO (May 3, 2025) – The New England Revolution (5-4-1; 16 pts.) claimed all three points against Toronto FC (1-6-4; 7 pts.), winning 2-0 at BMO Field on Saturday behind goals from Carles Gil and Leo Campana. The Revolution extended their winning streak to four games, with five wins in their last six matches. The team’s shutout streak stands at 385 minutes, tied for the third longest in club history. For the first time, New England has posted three consecutive shutout wins on the road.

It only took 11 minutes for New England to gain the advantage through Gil, who recorded his team-leading fifth goal of the season. It was also his sixth goal contribution in as many games. Ilay Feingold’s cross was headed away towards the top of the area, where the captain met it with a perfect volley into the top corner.

New England doubled its lead in the 27th minute as Leo Campana tallied his second goal for the Revolution, the 30th of his MLS regular season career. Alhassan Yusuf launched the counterattack by finding Campana on the break, and the Ecuadorian delivered a calm finish past Toronto goalkeeper Sean Johnson. Yusuf and fellow central midfielder Matt Polster were both pivotal in the win, each completing better than 90 percent of their pass attempts.

Campana created another golden opportunity for the visitors in the 32nd minute, when he played a quick pass to put Ignatius Ganago in on goal. The Cameroonian’s shot was saved by Johnson, and Gil’s follow-up attempt was also parried by the Toronto goalkeeper. Moments before halftime, Ganago nearly found himself on the scoresheet when he fired a shot on target, again created by Feingold’s work on the right side, but Johnson made another impressive save to deny New England a third goal before halftime.

Goalkeeper Aljaž Ivačič, who now has shutouts in five of his 10 starts on the year, recorded four saves behind the three-man backline comprised entirely of offseason newcomers: Brayan Ceballos, Mamadou Fofana, and Tanner Beason.

The Revolution now shift their attention to the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup, where they begin their tournament campaign in the Round of 32 on Wednesday, May 7 against USL Championship side Rhode Island FC. The 7:30 p.m. ET kickoff from Centreville Bank Stadium in Pawtucket, R.I. streams live on Paramount+. Listen to Brad Feldman and Matt LaPan call the action on 98.5 The Sports Hub HD2.
