Second Half Surge Pushes Revs to Win Over Chivas

The Revolution took 3 points from Chivas Sunday evening, in an impressive shutout 2-0 win. The team, which as struggled early in the season in the standings, has played good soccer, but failed to pick up wins in several close matches.

Sunday’s win marked a departure from their past woes, as the Revolution dominated the second half showing impressive speed and precision from their front line. Although the Revs started slowly, the substitution of Shalrie Joseph in the second half changed the demeanor of the team. Almost immediately after entering the pitch, Joseph connected with Kheli Dube on an impressive try that was stopped by a fantastic save from Chivas arcero, Zach Thornton. Later, Joseph connected with Dube who finished and put the Revs up 1-0.
