Revolution and Austin FC Battle to 0-0 Draw

July 12, 2025 - Major League Soccer (MLS)
New England Revolution News Release


AUSTIN, Texas - The New England Revolution (6-8-7; 25 pts.) battled Austin FC (7-8-6, 27 pts.) to a 0-0 draw at Q2 Stadium on Saturday night. In New England's first visit to Austin, Revolution goalkeeper Aljaž Ivačič made four saves as New England collected its eighth clean sheet of the campaign in the stalemate. With the draw, New England's away record moves to 4-3-5, with results in eight of the team's last nine away contests.

The hosts had a pair of opportunities to open the scoring inside the opening 15 minutes. First, Jon Gallagher was stifled by Revolution defender Brayan Ceballos, whose sliding effort blocked a would-be goal in the 11th minute. Four minutes later, Ivačič came up with a point-blank stop on Austin's Myrto Uzuni to keep the match scoreless. Uzuni had another big chance late in the match, striking the woodwork in the 81st minute.

New England battled back with Luca Langoni kissing a shot off the post just shy of the half-hour mark. Langoni nearly broke the deadlock with the last action of the first half, uncorking a shot from close range that Austin goalkeeper Brad Stuver turned aside. Stuver came up big again twice in the opening 10 minutes of the second half, denying Tomás Chancalay on the counter attack before fighting off a curling effort from Carles Gil on a free kick.

Gil had one final chance late in the game's final moments, with his volley taking a deflection off an Austin defender on the way towards goal, but the shot fell kindly to Stuver. During the match, Gil climbed into the top 10 in club history in MLS minutes played (15,409), surpassing Scott Caldwell.

Both goalkeepers made big saves late in the match in a back-and-forth sequence. Ivačič first denied Osman Bukari's attempt from distance in the 76th minute. Moments later, Stuver answered with a save on Leo Campana from close range. Stuver slammed the door once more in the 89th minute, when Will Sands streaked in behind the defense and delivered a low shot at the goalkeeper.

The Revolution head back east to prepare for the New York Red Bulls on Wednesday, July 16. The 7:30 p.m. ET kickoff from Sports Illustrated Stadium will air on MLS Season Pass on Apple TV in English and Spanish, 98.5 The Sports Hub, and 1260 AM Nossa Radio USA (Portuguese).
