Gil scored once and assisted twice as New England outshot Columbus 21-7 and ended the Crew’s three-game win streak.
On Sunday, August 30, captain Carles Gil led the New England Revolution to a 3-1 victory over the Columbus Crew at ScottsMiracle-Gro Field, recording one goal and two assists in the comeback win.
Brais Mendez initially put the Crew ahead in the eighth minute, but the Revolution responded with first-half goals from Matt Polster and Dor Turgeman to seize the lead before halftime.
New England outshot Columbus 21-7, with veteran Polster marking his 200th Revolution match and Turgeman capitalizing on Gil's playmaking to secure the dominant display.
Victory moves the Revolution into fourth place in the Eastern Conference, while the result snaps the Crew's four-game unbeaten streak, leaving Columbus at the bottom with 20 points.
Following the win, the Revolution travel to face the LA Galaxy on Saturday for the first of three matches in nine days, while the Crew reportedly finalize a deal to sign midfielder Daniel Gazdag.
