Round 1B Matchup
Charlie Davies Off-The-Post Finish vs. Columbus Crew / Nov. 1, 2014
After giving his club an early 1-0 lead, Davies went back to work in the second frame, using a Scott Caldwell through ball to advance into the attacking third. Both defenders gave Davies a cushion and, with the stroke of his right foot, he capitalized, sending a long-range strike off the far post and into the back of the net.
Patrick Mullins Rocket vs. Toronto F.C. / May 3, 2014
Down 1-0 early in the first half, the Revolution found an equalizer off the foot of Patrick Mullins. The rookie collected a quick touch from Daigo Kobayashi and rocketed a shot inside the near post, opening his MLS scoring account with a screamer past Brazilian goalkeeper Julio Cesar.
