Peyton Miller's 78th-minute goal was the match-winner as the visiting New England Revolution defeated Atlanta United, 2-1, on Wednesday night.
Carles Gil assisted on both goals for the Revolution (5-3-0, 15 points), who extended their winning streak to four matches. They also snapped a six-match road losing streak dating back to 2025.
Atlanta (1-7-1, 4 points) dropped its fourth league match in a row and has gone winless in its last five MLS matches (0-4-1).
The 18-year-old Miller scored his team-high third goal of the season on a cross from Gil from the left side of the scoring area. The United States youth international chipped it over Atlanta goalkeeper Lucas Hoyos to make it 2-1 Revs.
The goal came shortly after Will Sands scored a 73rd-minute equalizer. Gil's corner kick met Sands' head and, with Hoyos off his line, it sailed into the net to make it 1-1. It was Sands' first career goal.
Atlanta scored the match's first goal after the Revs' Alhassan Yusuf had his would-be opener disallowed on an offside call.
After Pedro Amador got on the end of a cross from Alexey Miranchuk, he fed it to Saba Lobjanidze in front of the goal. Revs goalkeeper Matt Turner parried away Lobjanidze's point-blank attempt before Fafa Picault had a simple finish on the rebound to make it 1-0. It was Picault's second goal with Atlanta United across all competitions.
Atlanta had an opportunity to equalize in second-half stoppage time, but Matt Turner stopped Emmanuel Latte Lath's volleyed attempt.
Turner ended the evening with eight saves. Hoyos was credited with two saves for Atlanta.
With the loss, Atlanta United's record in their last 13 matches at Mercedes-Benz Stadium fell to 1-6-6.
Wednesday marked New England's first road win since a 2-1 victory over the Columbus Crew on August 23, 2025.
