FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — Gustavo Bou had a goal and an assist on Saturday night, and the New England Revolution beat the 10-man New York Red Bulls 3-1 to stay atop the Eastern Conference standings on Saturday night.
Bou tied it 1-1 in the 36th minute, splitting a pair of defenders on a run created by Arnór Ingvi Traustason's through ball and finishing into the right corner.
Tajon Buchanan gave the Revolution (4-1-2) a 2-1 lead in the second minute of first-half stoppage time with an acute angle finish, also assisted by Traustason.
Adam Buksa capped the scoring in the 82nd minute with a close-range finish of Bou's cross.
The Red Bulls (2-4-0) led when Andrés Reyes headed home Frankie Amaya's corner in the seventh minute. Reyes was sent off with his second yellow card in the 38th minute.
