FOXBOROUGH, Mass. – The New England Revolution’s regional television partner, NBC Sports Boston, has partnered with Kraft Sports & Entertainment to re-air broadcasts of classic Revolution matches.

The first set of classic Revolution matches to re-air on NBC Sports Boston will relive one of the most exhilarating MLS Cup Playoffs battles in the club’s history, a two-leg aggregate victory against the New York Red Bulls that secured the Revolution’s fifth Eastern Conference title. Originally played on Nov. 23 and Nov. 29, 2014, the Jay Heaps-coached team saw its way through the series by an aggregate score of 4-3. Current Revs forward Teal Bunbury and Jermaine Jones contributed goals in the opening leg, while current NBC Sports Boston and Revolution TV analyst Charlie Davies tallied twice in front of a raucous Gillette Stadium crowd in the series-clinching second leg.
Please see below for the current schedule of Revolution matches set to re-air on NBC Sports Boston, which is currently in its 11th season as the club’s regional broadcast partner.
