COLUMBUS, Ohio<\/strong> (April 18, 2026<\/em>) \u2013\u00a0New England Revolution II (2\u20112\u20112; 10 pts.) fell to Columbus Crew 2 (4-2-1; 14 pts.), 2-1, in its first road contest of the 2026 campaign on Saturday afternoon at ScottsMiracle-Gro Field. Forward\/winger Myles Morgan<\/strong> provided the scoring for Revolution II, tallying his second goal of the season with Homegrown defender Damario McIntosh<\/strong> and midfielder Carlos Zambrano<\/strong> each earning an assist on the play. Crew 2 tallied goals on either side of halftime to secure the three points.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n New England opened the match strong, tallying two shots on target in the first 10 minutes of action. Midfielder Allan Oyirwoth<\/strong> rifled a shot from outside the 18-yard-box six minutes into the contest, but Columbus’s goalkeeper tipped the ball over the crossbar to keep the match scoreless. Two minutes later, a pair of Academy products connected, as midfielder Judah Siqueira<\/strong> crossed the ball to forward Makai Wells<\/strong>, who saw his near-post effort saved. Wells, 17, earned his fourth consecutive start in the attack today, though his afternoon was cut short due to an injury in the 28th minute.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n Crew 2 broke the deadlock in the 43rd minute, with Kevin Gbambl\u00e9 curling a shot into the back of the net. Revolution II nearly found an immediate equalizer in first-half stoppage time, as Homegrown forward Malcolm Fry<\/strong> juked two defenders and delivered a pass to Siqueira for a one-touch effort that bent wide of the right post. Three minutes into the second half, Columbus pushed its advantage to 2-0 when Zach Zengue capitalized on a transition opportunity for the hosts.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n New England broke through in the 60th minute, cutting the Crew 2’s lead, 2-1. Midfielder Carlos Zambrano<\/strong>, fresh off winning Goal of Matchweek 6 honors, connected with McIntosh, who lofted a well-placed ball into the box right to the head of Morgan. The Canadian nodded home the effort inside the right post for his second goal of the season. McIntosh, a Revolution Academy graduate, owns assists in three straight appearances across all competitions, including in his senior team season debut last Tuesday in the U.S. Open Cup Round of 32 match.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n Goalkeeper Donovan Parisian<\/strong> kept the game within reach for New England, scooping up Columbus’s close-range shot with five minutes remaining in regulation, but the home side held strong to secure the win. Parisian, who is coming off a penalty shootout win in his first team debut in Tuesday’s U.S. Open Cup match, finished the night with two saves.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n Revolution II remain on the road, traveling to face regional foe CT United FC on May 3 at Morrone Stadium.
