New England Revolution Vs. Sporting Kansas City: Rajko Lekic Opens His MLS Account

Rajko Lekic was brought into the New England Revolution to score goals. In his second game with his new team, that's just what he did. The Danish forward took a pass on the right wing near the edge of the penalty box and fired a ball past Sporting Kansas City goalkeeper Jimmy Nielson to give his team a 3-2 lead in the 86th minute.

The goal came shortly after the Revolution were given an advantage following Aurelien Collin being shown a red card. The Revolution had not been looking particularly good as they have been significantly out shot and out possessed despite playing against a team that has played all five of their games on the road.

The three goals are a season-high for the Revolution, who entered the match with just five goals in their first six matches. The addition of Benny Feilhaber seems to have played a role, but so has playing against one of the worst defense in MLS.
