Revs unbeaten run halted at nine
Valentine Castellanos converted a pair of point-blank shots on exquisite feeds from Maximiliano Moralez to lift New York City FC to a 2-0 win over the league-leading Revolution on Saturday night at Yankee Stadium.
The winner, in the 31st minute, was a brilliant header flicked over the keeper after Moralez floated the ball over the defenders. Initially ruled offside, the goal was awarded after a VAR review.
Castellanos got his 10th goal in the 55th minute after Moralez dropped a cross onto his foot at the goal mouth.
Sean Johnson had two saves for his sixth clean sheet for NYCFC (10-6-4).
The Revs (15-4-4) had their nine-game unbeaten streak halted. They had been 8-0-1 since a 3-2 loss to Toronto FC on July 7.
