Los Revs se medirán frente al equipo de Juan Pablo Angel este domingo

Después de un ansiado triunfo conseguido frente al D. C. United el pasado fin de semana, El Revolution de New England espera continuar sumando de a tres cuando este domingo reciba en casa a los New York Red Bulls.

Pero la tarea no será sencilla ya que tendrán al frente a un alicaído pero siempre peligroso equipo de Nueva York, quienes, comandados por su estrella, el atacante colombiano Juan Pablo Angel y el senegalese Macoumba Kandj tratarán de estropearle la fiesta a los dirigidos por Steve Nicol.

Durante la práctica de ayer martes, el mediocampista de Los Revs, Jeff Larentowicz opinó acerca de la confrontación frente a los Red Bulls, ”Nueva York está teniendo dificultades como nosotros, estamos juntos en el sótano de la Conferencia y aunque cada vez que los enfrentamos son juegos bastante peleados, la mayoría de veces obtenemos buenos resultados frente a ellos, así que creo que realmente debemos ganar”, acotó el mediocampista de Los Revs.

As briefly mentioned in yesterday’s training recap, the Revs are off today after the midweek training session was cancelled so as not to overwork the players ahead of Sunday night’s clash with the Red Bulls (6 p.m. ET, TV38, WEEI Radio Network).

With an extra day to prepare for the match, the club will train again on Friday and Saturday before hosting New York at Gillette Stadium on Sunday. The last time the Revs trained five straight days ahead of a match was prior to the May 3 game against Houston, and we all remember how that turned out. With that said, perhaps the day off is an intelligent idea.

For those of you who want to do some advanced scouting, you can catch the Red Bulls in action against D.C. United at RFK Stadium tonight. Coverage begins at 7:30 p.m. ET on ESPN2 and ESPN Deportes.

As we gear up for this week’s Revs game, there is plenty to talk about in the news today.

John Connolly of the Boston Herald spotlights Revs midfielder, Jay Heaps, as he gets set to make his 300th MLS appearance, which will make him only the ninth player in league history to do so.
