New England Revolution defeated Minnesota United 2-1 in an MLS encounter where the hosts' defensive solidity proved decisive despite Minnesota's attacking threat. The Revolution, operating in a 4-2-3-1 shape, registered 11 shots with five on target and an expected goals total of 1.75, while their goalkeeper made crucial saves—posting a 60 per cent save percentage and gaining 0.89 goals above expected goals. Minnesota's 3-4-3 formation generated slightly superior xG at 1.81 from 12 shots, six of which were on target, yet they managed only a single goal through Kelvin Yeboah. Carles Gil and Luca Langoni scored for the Revolution in a match where New England's efficiency in front of goal and goalkeeper performance ultimately outweighed Minnesota's marginally superior underlying metrics. Referee Rosendo Mendoza oversaw proceedings as the Revolution moved closer to playoff contention.
