Jose Goncalves and the New England Revolution closed out the regular season with a 1-0 win against the Columbus Crew.  The win clinched the club's first playoff appearance since 2009 and helps them leapfrog the Chicago Fire and Montreal Impact to earn the Eastern Conference's #3 Seed that will put them up against Sporting KC in a home and home matchup.  The game marked the second consecutive week the Revolution matched up against the Columbus Crew with the Revs winning both matches.  The game comes one week after Goncalves was named the 2013 New England Revolution Defender of the Year as well as the 2013 Midnight Riders Man of the Year

The Revs Captain had another gusty performance and earned mlssoccer.com's Man of the Match #2.  He led the backline to its club-record 14th shutout on the season.  His performance drew accollades by the league as he was named to the mlssoccer.com's Team of the Week (35) for the 7th time in the season.  

Goncalves suffered an early injury to his hamstring and looked as though he may have needed to come off the field for the first time this season.  Instead, Goncalves dug deep and battled through through the injury during the club's most critical match to date.  Stay tuned for this upcoming weekend's MLS Playoff matches, and congratulations to Jose Goncalves on helping his club earn a Playoff appearance for the first time since 2009.
