New England Revolution wins MLS Championship Rematch, beats Houston Dynamo for SuperLiga Title

Revenge is just sweet.

After the New England Revolution fell to the Houston Dynamo the last time they met each other in a championship game, New England got revenge after beating Houston in the 2008 SuperLiga championship last Tuesday.

The New England Revolution finally found a way to beat the Houston Dynamo in a championship match but it wasn’t easy. New England defeated Houston 3-2 to win the SuperLiga title in a tightly contested face-off.

New England RevolutionThe two teams were tied 1-1 at the end of regulation and 2-2 at the end of two 15-minute overtime periods. After New England defender Chris Albright scored against Houston Dynamo goalkeeper Pat Onstad to give the Revolution a 6-5 lead in penalty kicks, New England was ready to celebrate.

When New England goalkeeper Matt Reis tipped a shot by Corey Ashe off the crossbar, pandemonium erupted.

The match was a little bit of revenge for New England. They have lost the last two MLS titles to the Dynamo.

New England made it to the final of the SuperLiga with a 3-0-1 record and did not allow a goal at home until Houston scored in the first half. The Dynamo scored nine goals in their first four SuperLiga matches but could only get one in regulation against the Revolution in the final.
