Carles Gil converted a penalty kick in the 85th minute to give the New England Revolution a 2-1 win over the Columbus Crew on Saturday in Foxborough, Mass.

Three minutes before Gil’s goal, Crew defender Rudy Camacho pulled Dor Turgeman to the ground in the box to draw the penalty. A video review confirmed the foul, and Gil then buried the shot for his first goal of the season and the 50th of his Revolution career.

Max Arfsten gave Columbus (1-4-3, 6 points) the early lead in the 25th minute, but Turgeman sparked New England’s comeback with an equalizer in the 54th minute.

The Revolution (4-3-0, 12 points) are 4-0-0 at home this season, outscoring opponents by a 12-2 margin in Foxborough.

The loss ended the Crew’s two-match (1-0-1) unbeaten streak in regular-season play, and a long stretch of road success against the Revs. The Crew hadn’t lost in their previous five visits to New England (3-0-2), dating back to the 2021 season.

In the 25th minute, Revs goaltender Matt Turner dove in an attempt to cut off Diego Rossi’s cross, but Arfsten corralled the loose ball at the other end of the box. Arfsten then held the ball while defender Andrew Farrell slid by, and converted the finish for his second goal of the season before Patrick Schulte could get back in position.

Turgeman responded with his second goal in the 54th minute, breaking open what had been a quiet game for New England’s attack. Luca Langoni’s free kick found Turgeman in the middle of the box for a header that snuck inside the near post.

After Gil’s go-ahead goal, Camacho just missed a chance to atone for his earlier mistake. Two minutes into the 10 minutes of second-half stoppage time, Camacho had a close-range shot that deflected off the goalpost.

Revolution defender Brayan Ceballos left in the 17th minute with an apparent lower-body injury. Peyton Miller substituted into the match in Ceballos’ place.

Hector Herrera’s goal in the 75th minute broke a scoreless stalemate and lifted the Houston Dynamo to a 1-0 victory over host Orlando City SC on Saturday night.

Herrera’s first goal of the season gave Houston (3-4-0, 9 points) its second consecutive victory across all competitions but snapped a three-match losing streak in MLS play. The Dynamo won their first game ever at Orlando, their first road win this season and secured three vital points as they try to avoid falling out of contention early.

It was Houston’s first shutout win in league play since Sept. 20, 2025, against Portland.

Orlando City (1-6-1, 4 points) is winless in its past four league games and has scored only one goal over that span. The Lions were blanked for the fourth time this season.

Herrera kicked home a rebound after a shot by Ezequiel Ponce was blocked by Orlando goalkeeper Maxime Crepeau. The scoring chance was created by a great advance downfield by Lawrence Ennali, who split Orlando’s defenders and put a close-range shot on goal that Crepeau also deflected.

Dynamo goalkeeper Jimmy Maurer entered the game after halftime in relief of starter Jonathan Bond and made a huge save in the second half to keep the game scoreless.

In the 66th minute, Orlando’s Braian Ojeda fired a corner kick in front of the goal that almost found the mark. Iago Teodoro’s attempt was blocked. Martin Ojeda then had another putback attempt blocked by a Dynamo defender to keep the game scoreless.

Orlando City’s other great chance came just before halftime when Tyrese Spicer delivered a long, accurate cross that traveled right in front of Bond. Tiago came sliding in and fired the ball quickly, but it hit the crossbar and ricocheted away.

It was one of multiple chances before the half for Orlando that didn’t find the mark.

Houston had only one official shot on target in the first half but ended up with a 6-3 edge in that department by game’s end and outshot Orlando 19-17. Crepeau finished with four saves while Bond and Maurer combined for three saves.

FC Cincinnati scored twice in the final 15 minutes of regulation to earn a 3-3 draw against the visiting Chicago Fire Saturday evening.

Hugo Cuypers found the net twice for Chicago, extending his team lead to six goals on the season. But Cincinnati (2-4-2, 8 points) used goals in the 79th and 86th minutes to end the Fire’s (4-2-2, 14 points) three-match MLS winning streak.

The match was a battle, with 41 total shots, 16 shots on goal, 20 combined fouls and seven combined yellow cards.

After a scoreless 25 minutes to start, both teams heated up offensively, combining for three goals in the next 20 minutes plus stoppage time.

Cuypers got the scoring, connecting on a right-footed shot with assists from Philip Zinckernagel and Jack Elliott to give the Fire a 1-0 lead in the 26th minute.

In the 42nd minute, Cincinnati striker Tom Barlow tied the match when the rebound of Chris Brady’s save of Bryan Ramirez’s shot fell to his feet at the edge of the 6-yard box.

It looked like that 1-1 tie would hold going into halftime, but Cincinnati’s Samuel Gidi picked up a costly foul on Cuypers in the third minute of stoppage time. Zinckernagel took advantage with a right-footed penalty shot that got past Cincinnati goalkeeper Roman Celentano and gave the Fire a 2-1 lead.

Things went from bad to worse for Cincinnati three minutes into the second half when Cuypers scored again to increase the Fire’s lead to 3-1.

Just when time was starting to dwindle, Cincinnati roared back. Evander, who scored 18 goals a season ago, notched his first goal of the season in the 79th minute on a penalty kick set up by Mbekezeli Mbokazi’s foul of Gerardo Valenzuela on his run into the box.

Cincinnati then leveled in the 86th minute on an own goal from Chicago’s Dje D’Avilla directly off an Evander free kick.

Despite an extended 10 minutes of second-half stoppage time, neither team could find the net, with Brady making his eighth save to keep the game level.

Celentano finished with three saves.
