The New England Revolution faced off against St. Louis CITY SC on Saturday evening and suffered a 3-1 loss.
The starting XI was largely what fans would have expected entering the match. Marko Mitrovic trotted out a backline featuring Ilay Feingold, Brayan Ceballos, Mamadou Fofana, and Will Sands in front of Matt Turner.
Matt Polster and Brooklyn Raines were in the midfield while Carles Gil played as a No. 10. Alhassan Yusuf and Luca Langoni played out wide, and Dor Turgeman was the lone striker.
