Finlay on Revs match: key is "our defensive shape, staying compact"

The Crew has beaten the New England Revolution twice this season, but it's now the third and final meeting of the regular season that is proving to be the most meaningful. Winger Ethan Finlay, who scored the game-winning goal the last time the Black & Gold played at Gillette Stadium, maintains that organization will be the key for the Crew on Saturday.


"It's our defensive shape, staying compact," said Finlay. "This is a good team. When you look at that midfield, they want to play soccer and they have some dangerous pieces up top. Our shape has to be very compact and we have to look to find the spaces behind them going forward."


Finlay also stressed that the Crew was ready for the month of October and knows the task at hand.


Hear more from Finlay in the Black & Gold Breakdown, set to be released later today on TheCrew.com.
