Weather delays start of New England Revolution hosting Vancouver Whitecaps

Wednesday night’s match between the New England Revolution and Vancouver Whitecaps featured a brief delay and kicked off at 7:15 pm ET. 


The game was originally slated to begin around 7 pm ET, with warmups pushed back by lightning and torrential rain passing over Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Mass.

New England recently endured three weather delays in a 2-1 win at the Colorado Rapids on the Fourth of July. There are no further delays expected for the match, though this post will be updated should anything develop.


The scenes beforehand were enough to prompt concern for player and fan safety.
