New York (1-1-2) took a 10th minute lead when Thomas McNamara
headed in a rebound after David Villa's shot came back off the
crossbar, but the Revolution (0-1-3) drew level seven minutes before
halftime when Chris Tierney's free kick deflected in off Steven
Mendoza.
New England were reduced to 10-men six minutes into the second half
after Gershon Koffie was shown a straight red card for a lunging
foul on McNamara, but New York failed to make the numerical
advantage count.
"What I'm really disappointed in is the way we played more than the
result," New York head coach Patrick Vieira said after a third home
match without victory.
"This is something we need to work on because three games at home
and two points is not good enough for a football club like New York
City."
