(AP) — Steve Ralston's goal in the 79th minute allowed the New England Revolution to salvage a 1-1 tie with the Red Bulls in Major League Soccer on Wednesday night.
They broke out to a quick 1-0 lead on a goal by Dax McCarty in the game's fourth minute, allowed an own goal by defender Brandon Barklage and then regained the lead for good on a goal by Fabian Espindola (his third of the season, but first since opening day) in the eighth minute.
A pass from Ramires inside the opening minute allowed him the oportunity to demonstrate why he was so coveted by his new manager as he finished past the Sociedad goalkeeper, Eñaut Zubikarai, from a tight angle to give the hosts the lead.
