Revs Playmaker Lee Nguyen Thrives on Natural Instincts

By Kyle McCarthyJanuary 1, 2018

Revolution midfielder Lee Nguyen stood up at the podium and tried to explain how he kept this ill-fated Revolution season alive for another week.

Nguyen provided the only goal to separate the sides in the 1-0 victory over Montreal. His decisive intervention against the Impact followed a four-assist effort the previous week to spur a romp over Orlando City.

Those feats preserved some hope for a Revolution team lurching from week to week for most of the season. The humiliation in Atlanta loomed a few days later. This scene — a gritty win over another team scrapping to maintain touch with the Eastern Conference playoff places — represented one of the final glimpses of hope before everything crashed down.
