07/31/2010 - Chester, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Sebastien Le Toux scored his eighth goal of the season in the first half, but the Philadelphia Union settled for a 1-1 draw on Saturday at PPL Park against the New England Revolution.
Marko Perovic equalized Le Toux's goal in the second half on goal that took an awkward bounce over a diving Union goalkeeper Chris Seitz, as the Revolution earned just their second road result of the season.
Philadelphia (4-8-3) had dropped points at home in Major League Soccer matches just twice, with three wins and a draw in five previous matches.
New England (4-9-4) had lost six straight on the road. The Revs only previous road result was a 2-0 victory in April over D.C. United, which has the worst record in MLS.
Sainey Nyassi had an early chance for New England but shot just wide left from the right side of the area in the 14th minute.
Le Toux, who started Wednesday's 5-2 loss to Manchester United in the MLS All- Star game, put Philadelphia in front less than 10 minutes later with a perfect shot into the upper-right corner.
The Union used a nice series of passes, with Le Toux eventually playing the ball in from left to rookie Danny Mwanga at the top of the area. Mwanga tried to open space and the ball slipped away from him, allowing Le Toux to rush in and unleash an 18-yard shot that left New England goalie Matt Reis no chance.
Perovic fired a free kick just over the bar in the 41st and Le Toux had a free kick tipped over the bar by Reis in first-half injury time as both sides ended the half with good scoring chances.
New England didn't waste another free kick midway through the second half, and Perovic curled a shot from well outside the area past a stunned Seitz. Perovic drove the long shot around the Union's wall and it took a bounce in the box to hop over Seitz at the left post in the 70th.
Perovic nearly put the Revolution in front in the 84th, but missed the upper- left corner from 18 yards.
Philadelphia ended the game with three good scoring chances but Michael Orozco Fiscal was denied by Reis in the 86th, Le Toux had an open shot deflected in the 88th, and Le Toux turned a header wide of the left post in extra time.
The Revolution and Union remain level on points near the bottom of the Eastern Conference, well off the pace of the first-place Columbus Crew.
Philadelphia hosts Columbus on Thursday to start a two-match week. New England hosts D.C. United on Aug. 7 in its next match.
