Lee Nguyen ends Revolution losing streak with a goal and an assist and also forced an own goal

Lee Nguyen scored one goal and set another as the New England Revolution beat the Colorado Rapids 3-0 on Wednesday to end an eight-game Major League Soccer losing streak.

New England took its first lead in a match since 24 May when Nguyen’s shot inside the box in the 10th minute deflected off Drew Moor for an own goal. Colorado’s Thomas Piermayr was sent off for his second yellow card in the 74th minute, for a rough challenge just outside the box, and Nguyen’s ensuing free-kick cleared the wall and landed in the upper right corner of the net. Four minutes later, Nguyen sent a pass for Kelyn Rowe to score.
