PawedCast Episode 433: Revolution Rewind, Nashville Preview, and More
Orlando City pulled it off! The Lions went to Massachusetts and came home with all three points at the expense of the New England Revolution. We don’t much care that Carles Gil didn’t play or that the Revs had a lot of injuries. What we mainly care about is getting a damn win finally at Gillette Stadium. Facundo Torres is red hot and we’re here for it. It is also helpful that Duncan McGuire’s replacement scored a goal. These are things we support.

They said it: Oscar Pareja and Ramiro Enrique share their thoughts after comeback win over New England Revolution
“Very excited with the three points, very proud of the character of the team and the players that brought us back after an irregular first half. The second half, it was what we wanted and the reaction was outstanding from the players. It seems like our confidence keeps rising, and finding the net is helping us to believe that this is the team who can keep that rhythm and get into the playoffs. The game? I thought in the first half we conceded a lot of freedom for New England players and the first goal is something that we need to correct. After that, we had a lot of reaction, not too much [time needed] to tie the game. In the break we decided just to push our lines way higher and just bring more stamina for those actions and dueling, passing and landing in the box. And I see that team that we have seen in the last two games. A team with more chemistry, but at the same time, with more passion and more energy that allowed us to dominate the game and score our goals. This is the first time that the team [has won] here in New England and that means a lot of respect for the players to that achieve that.”
