  "textContent": "Nashville SC earned their 100th win in all competitions in the MLS era on Wednesday night, defeating the New England Revolution 3-0 at Gillette Stadium thanks to a brace from **Bryan Acosta** , with the Revolution failing to win a home match for the first time in 2026.\n\n> 1️⃣0️⃣0️⃣ Nashville SC's 3-0 win tonight in New England is their 100th win in all competitions in the MLS era! 🎨 @mikemeredith.bsky.social\n>\n> [image or embed]\n>\n> — SixOneFive Soccer (@sixonefivesoccer.com) May 13, 2026 at 8:45 PM\n\n## The vibe check (TL;DR)\n\n  * **What happened:** Nashville made a statement against one of the most in-form teams in MLS. The Revolution had won all six of their home matches heading into Wednesday night, but Nashville were up to the task.\n  * **What we learned:** The 'Yotes continue to establish their bonifides as one of the truly elite teams in MLS, and have been among the very best sides away from home in 2026. In seven matches away from home, they've earned 13 points.\n  * **Big picture:** The win keeps Nashville firmly on top of the Eastern Conference with 27 points, two points ahead of Inter Miami with a game in hand.\n\n\n\n## Key moments\n\n  * **20'** | The first real chance of the night falls to **Hany Mukhtar** after a cut-back cross from **Cristian Espinoza**. The former MVP looks to pick out the bottom corner, but his shot is blocked and skuttles out for a corner.\n  * **34' |** Nashville SC take the lead through **Bryan Acosta** , who bags his first Nashville goal after a soul-snatching run from Espinoza.\n  * **41' |** The 'Yotes double the lead after an absolute _disaster_ from New England 'keeper **Matt Turner** , who scuffs a simple pass out of the back straight to **Warren Madrigal** , who continues his hot run of form with one of the easiest finishes of his career.\n  * **50' | Andy Nájar** goes down with a concerning injury, holding his right leg after attempting to play a pass. **Dan Lovitz** replaces.\n  * **62' |** Nearly a third for Nashville, when **Ethan Kohler** turns a cross from Espinoza off his own bar.\n  * **66' |** A fantastic counterattack ends at the feet of **Ahmed Qasem** , who forces Turner into a good save from a tight angle.\n  * **74' |** Acosta finishes an improbable brace, smashing in a half-volley from the top of the box after Espinoza plays a corner to the wide-open midfielder.\n\n\n\n## Standout performers\n\n  * **Bryan Acosta** put in a match-winning performance, forced into a starting role after injuries to **Patrick Yazbek** and **Eddi Tagseth**. The Honduran international was tidy aside in the middle of the pitch, but his two goals were sensational. It was his first time on the scoresheet since 2019.\n  * While **Cristian Espinoza** didn't bag a goal of his own, he was _exceptional_**** down the right flank. The Argentine created four chances on the night, including both of Acosta's goals, and was the most dangerous player on the pitch.\n\n\n\n## Lineup notes\n\nHead coach **BJ Callaghan** made three changes to his squad, bringing **Reed Baker-Whiting** , **Maxwell Woledzi** , and **Warren Madrigal** back into the lineup after Saturday's 2-2 draw with DC United.\n\n## What it means\n\nNashville continue their Supporters' Shield pace. Against a New England side who had won all six of their prior home matches, the 'Yotes were dominant, leaving no doubt in Gillette Stadium and increasing their cushion on top of the Eastern Conference.\n\n## Up next\n\nNashville are back at Geodis Park on Sunday for a primetime match with Los Angeles FC, pitting the two Concacaf Champions Cup semifinalists in one of the more intriguing matches of the season so far.\n\n## Stats\n\n**Possession:** NE 53% – 47% NSH\n**Shots:** NE 8 – 8 NSH\n**Shots on goal:** NE 2 – 4 NSH\n**Penalty kicks:** NE 0 – 0 NSH\n**Goals:** NE 0 – 3 NSH\n**Expected goals:** NE 0.60 – 0.39 NSH\n**Total Passes:** NE 423 – 385 NSH\n**Fouls:** NE 8 – 12 NSH\n**Yellow cards:** NE 2 – 3 NSH\n**Red cards** : NE 0 – 0 NSH\n**Announced attendance:**\n\n\n          New England Revolution - Nashville SC Live Score\n        ",
