Arbitrators rule against Orioles pitcher Bergesen
HOUSTON, July 25 (UPI) -- Kheli Dube's goal in the 76th minute Saturday lifted the New England Revolution to a 1-0 Major League Soccer win over the Houston Dynamo.
Dube's third goal this season made the Revolution (6-5-5) unbeaten with two ties in their last three matches and gave them a season sweep after a 1-0 victory against the Dynamo (9-5-5) April 4.
New England is fifth in the Eastern Conference with 23 points, seven behind front-running Columbus.
With the game scoreless and about 15 minutes to play, Revs' defender Kevin Alston sprung Steve Ralston with a pass into the Houston penalty area. Houston goalkeeper Pat Onstad made a charge but Ralston's touch pass to Dube in the six-yard box led to the game-winner.
Houston, with 32 points, leads second-place Seattle by three points in the West.
The Sounders played a scoreless tie against Chicago earlier Saturday.
