Late goals from Dylan Borrero and Alex Monis saved the affair from finishing goalless, and that is now a rap on this season.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Dylan Borrero on Target In Score Draw<\/strong><\/h2>\n<h3><strong>Dylan Borrero Scores the Last Revs Goal of 2022<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Bruce Arena dismissed the idea of playing youngsters in this final fixture to the media in the build-up. He stayed true to his word with a fairly experienced XI being sent out onto the field. Amongst those starters were<a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/soccer\/2022\/10\/02\/giacomo-vrioni-scores-revs-win\/\" target=\"_self\"> Giacomi Vrioni<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/soccer\/2022\/08\/24\/nacho-gil-new-england-revolution\/\" target=\"_self\">Nacho Gil<\/a>. The former missed a bit of a sitter whereas the latter was the subject of some fierce marking.<\/p>\n<p>Dylan Borrero wasn\u2019t in from the start but the young, Colombian winger came on as a sub and made the difference. The 20-year-old drove in off the left-wing and played a one-two with fullback Brandon Bye before firing beyond Chris Brady.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Borrero gets us on board! <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/lWUa6v9AtM\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pic.twitter.com\/lWUa6v9AtM<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; New England Revolution (@NERevolution) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NERevolution\/status\/1579210188120367106?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">October 9, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>The Revs\u2019 goal in this one was quite something but Arena was being more level-headed about it. He said the following about the scorer Borrero, he\u2019s \u201cGot a long way to go though. He&#8217;s not fit at this level. He has to get physically stronger. He&#8217;s got to get mentally stronger as well, but he&#8217;s a player with talent and we&#8217;ve got to get it out of him next year and get him more responsible in senior matches.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read More:<\/strong>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/soccer\/2022\/10\/04\/djordje-petrovic-revs-team-mvp\/\" target=\"_self\">Introducing\u2026 the Revolution\u2019s Team MVP and Players\u2019 Player Djordje Petrovic!<\/a><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Attentions Turn to Next Year<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>This is the end of one year and allows Arena and co to prepare for the next one in New England.

Regular mistakes have been his contribution to the Revolution this year. When asked about this after the game though, Arena didn\u2019t seem to agree. \u201cI&#8217;m not sure that&#8217;s a fair statement to make or fair to just use [Omar Gonzalez] as a scapegoat today, so I&#8217;m just going to kind of ignore that question.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Future\u2019s looking bright. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/Aiu8mzdXDt\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pic.twitter.com\/Aiu8mzdXDt<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; New England Revolution (@NERevolution) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/NERevolution\/status\/1579237933843783680?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">October 9, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>From Arena to defender DeJuan Jones, and the emphasis is on moving on from this season. \u201cDylan Borrero came on and scored a fantastic goal, so it was great. We had some good moments today and definitely a lot to build on, but we\u2019ve still got to close out games.\u201d The Revs certainly need to start holding onto leads as it became more and more comical.<\/p>\n<p>Another interesting quote from Jones, this time on his future with the club, is as follows. \u201cYou never know what\u2019s going to happen in football, but if I\u2019m back here next year, I\u2019ll be ready to go and ready to work.
