Turgeman, Gil help Revolution stay unbeaten at home with 2-1 victory over Crew

Dor Turgeman scored the equalizer early in the second half and Carles Gil netted the winner on a penalty kick in the 85th minute as the New England Revolution rallied to beat the Columbus Crew 2-1 on Saturday night to remain unbeaten at home. New England (4-3-0) has won its first four home matches in its first season under coach Marko Mitrović, outscoring its opponents 12-2. Columbus (1-4-3) took a 1-0 lead in the 25th minute when Max Arfsten used assists from Diego Rossi and Dániel Gazdag to score his second goal.

The New England Revolution are building a fortress at Gillette Stadium. On Saturday night, they staged a classic comeback, rallying to a 2-1 victory over the Columbus Crew and preserving their perfect home record under new coach Marko Mitrović.

Columbus struck first, with Max Arfsten finding the net in the 25th minute. But the Revs, showcasing the resilience that has defined their home form, fought back. Young forward Dor Turgeman announced his arrival in the 54th minute, coolly finishing a pass from the ever-creative Luca Langoni to level the score.

With the game hanging in the balance, captain Carles Gil stepped up to the spot in the 85th minute after Turgeman was fouled in the box. The maestro calmly converted the penalty, sealing a dramatic three points and sending the home fans into a frenzy.

This win marks New England's fourth straight home victory to start the Mitrović era, a stretch where they've outscored opponents 12-2. While road form remains a puzzle, the energy and results at Gillette Stadium are providing a powerful foundation for the season. For the Crew, it's another frustrating result in a challenging start to their campaign.
