Foxborough, Mass. -- Second-half goals by Sainey Nyassi and Steve Ralston Saturday lifted the New England Revolution to a 2-1 win over FC Dallas in its MLS home opener.
Nyassi, from the right wing, rocketed a 20-yard shot past FC Dallas goalkeeper Ray Burse, creating a 1-1 tie in the 56th minute.
Ralston scored the game-winner on a penalty kick in the 80th minute after referee Silviu Petrescu called a foul on the Hoops' Kheli Dube in New England's penalty area. He beat Hoops' goalkeeper Ray Burse for his first goal this season.
