FOXBOROUGH, Mass. – The New England Revolution (3-8-4, 13 pts.) and D.C. United played to a 1-1 draw before a crowd of 20,131 at Gillette Stadium on Saturday evening. Revolution forward Juan Agudelo opened the scoring in the 61^st minute – five minutes after goalkeeper Matt Turner was ejected for a red card – with a header inside of the near post, but D.C. United's Wayne Rooney equalized by converting a penalty kick in the 90^th minute.

New England played the last 34 minutes of the match with 10 men after Turner was issued a straight red card for denial of an obvious goal scoring opportunity on Rooney. Goalkeeper Brad Knighton entered the match and immediately made one of his two saves on the night, a diving effort to deny Rooney’s free kick.

Only five minutes after Turner’s ejection, Agudelo, making the 200^th regular season appearance of his MLS career, responded with his third goal of the season, which was assisted by Cristian Penilla. The Revolution held on to the lead until D.C. United was awarded a penalty kick in the 90^th minute after a video review showed Revolution defender Brandon Bye had committed a handball.

New England returns to action on Sunday, June 2, when the club visits LA Galaxy at Dignity Health Sports Park. That match kicks off at 10:30 p.m. ET on NBC Sports Boston, 98.5 The Sports Hub, and in Portuguese on 1260 AM Nossa Radio.
