FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) — Newly acquired Danish forward Rajko Lekic broke a tie in the 83rd minute with his first MLS goal in the New England Revolution’s 3-2 comeback victory over Sporting Kansas City on Saturday night.
Playing his second match since being signed from Silkeborg, Lekic headed in a cross from Zak Boggs on the right wing. Lekic had 76 goals in 121 games for Silkeborg.
The Revolution (2-2-3) played with a man advantage over the final 14 minutes after Aurelian Collin was red-carded for interfering with Matt Reis while the goalkeeper covered a corner kick.
New England tied it in the 72nd minute on Shalrie Joseph’s team-leading third goal of the season.
Marko Perovic also scored for the Revolution. Kei Kamara scored twice for Kansas City (1-3-1).
