New England Revolution fell to Charlotte FC 1-0 in their final match before the MLS regular season takes a two-month pause for this summer's FIFA World Cup. Charlotte striker Idan Toklomati's 16th-minute tally proved to be the difference in New England's final match before the World Cup break. The hosts nearly doubled their lead in the 30th minute when a giveaway from defender Ethan Kohler fell kindly to Wilfried Zaha, but Matt Turner produced a diving save, one of three crucial stops from the Revolution goalkeeper in the first half. New England found its best look of the opening stanza moments later, when midfielder Carles Gil curled a free kick on frame in the 33rd minute, but Charlotte goalkeeper Kristijan Kahlina denied the effort. Shortly before halftime, center back Mamadou Fofana delivered a bicycle-kick clearance off the goal line to send both teams into the locker room with only one goal separating them. Momentum shifted in favor of the Revolution after halftime, with the visitors holding the majority of possession. In the 58th minute, Homegrown Player Peyton Miller drew a foul from Charlotte defender David Schnegg, who was sent off the pitch with his second yellow card offense. The 18-year-old Homegrown nearly found the equalizer moments later, but his left-footed finish was saved by a diving Kahlina. Forward Diego Fagundez, the Revolution's original Homegrown, completed 97 of his passes over a 79-minute shift in his first start of the 2026 MLS season tonight, his first start for New England since 2020. In the attack, Gil led New England with four key passes, while matching Miller and Dor Turgeman with a team-high three shots on the night. In net for New England, Turner posted a four-save performance, highlighted by a clutch 83rd-minute stop on a breakaway from Pep Biel. The American international posted eight wins in his 14 starts for New England before this summer's FIFA World Cup, where he hopes to be on the U.S. Men's National Team roster. In search of a breakthrough, Head Coach Marko Mitrović deployed four U.S. youth internationals off the bench in Griffin Yow, Eric Klein, Marcos Zambrano, and Cristiano Oliveira. Oliveira, an 18-year-old Somerville, Mass. native, entered the match to mark his MLS debut. He was one of four Revolution Academy products to see action tonight.
