New England Revolution vs Columbus Crew, 7pm, ESPN2


This isn't one of the most exciting of match ups but still should be pretty entertaining. The Crew is winless this season but they are undefeated (two scoreless draws). New England is 1-1, with a 1-0 loss to Chicago and an impressive 4-0 win over expansion team Toronto. The thing to watch in this game will be the wing play for the Revolution. Taylor Twellman, New England's target forward will need good service from the wings. Twellman, who didn't make the cut for the World Cup has something to prove if he hopes to go in 2010. Khano Smith a speedster who plays on the wing will be up against National team player Frankie Hejduk, that will be a match up to watch. For those of you who went to UNC Soccer Camp last year and had Josh as a trainer, will be interested to know he played with Khano at Lees McCrae in Banner Elk.

ESPN will be carrying a game every Thursday during the MLS season.

Here's a video of last week's MLS goals to get you warmed up:
