With his yellow card in the 28th minute versus Inter Miami CF, Revolution defender Brayan Ceballos will be suspended for their next match versus Chicago Fire FC due to card accumulation.

His season is officially over after this match.

#NERevs | #Fire97 | #MLS

Halftime Thoughts:

• Brandon Bye is unlucky to have not scored early in this match
• There is zero execution in this team - Inter Miami are completely outplaying NE across the board
• Ceballos🟨means out v Chicago now😠
• Can NE do anything at all? Anything?

#NERevs | #MLS

Javier Mascherano makes SIX changes to Inter Miami CF's starting XI from their last match.

Into the XI➡️Ríos Novo, Fray, Falcón, Allen, Rodríguez & Allende
Out of the XI⬅️Ustari, Weigandt, Avilés, Luján, Segovia & Bright

Bold decisions by the coach

Super unfortunate to hear that Jim Curtin has stepped away from conversations regarding the open New England Revolution head coach position.

Today, I cast my vote for Brayan Ceballos to win #NERevs Defender of the Year.

Defender of the Year is selected solely by votes from local media.

Eligible for selection were Revolution players that made at least 10 MLS regular season starts in a defensive position.

New England Revolution forward Dor Turgeman is now the 23rd player in MLS history to have both a goal & an assist in his Major League Soccer debut.

I asked #NERevsII head coach Richie Williams if he was interested in throwing his name into contention for the New England Revolution first team head coach position:

I asked Brandon Bye to comment on whether or not he’s had discussions about renewing with New England:

Peyton Miller has been issued a red card.

Yikes. That was really bad.

#NERevs | #DOOP | #MLS

Halftime Thoughts:

• Westfield should have a goal
• Ceballos & Beason are having really good games
• Philly are trying to score off of lofted crosses.
• Langoni needs to be subbed at halftime.
• Gil is dropping way too deep.
• NE don't look like a team that's 8W-8D-14L

#NERevs | #DOOP | #MLS

Allan Oyirwoth is issued a yellow card for his second consecutive MLS game.

#NERevs | #MLS

I'm really enjoying the higher line of confrontation & higher press intensity from this #NERevs lineup.

They've looked like the better side through the first 10 minutes of the match.

#MLS

New England Revolution Starting XI versus #DOOP

• I believe they are in a 3-4-2-1
• Langoni at the 9
• Oyirwoth & Gil as CAMs
• Bye & Miller wingbacks
• Feingold is in at RCB

#NERevs | #MLS

Tómas Chancalay’s lack of involvement continues to worry me.

His stats in 2025:

23 Games Played, 12 Games Started
5 Goals & 2 Assists
3 🟨

Roster Designation: Designated Player
Salary: $1,060,000
Contract: Through 2026 Season, Option for 2027

My view from atop the pitch here at Subaru Park ahead of New England Revolution v Philadelphia Union

#NERevs | #DOOP | #MLS

The New England Revolution will OFFICIALLY be eliminated from the 2025 MLS Cup Playoffs with:

a LOSS/DRAW v Philadelphia Union OR a Chicago Fire FC WIN v Minnesota United FC.

Appreciate all the kind words in regard to my article.

As I noted, I’ve been working on this one for quite awhile.

Plenty of more to come.

Thanks for reading and sharing. It means a lot. @mattdoyle.bsky.social
