Gustavo Bou New England Revolution Forward

Forward Gustavo Bou propelled the Revolution into the Eastern Conference Final with a brace against Orlando City SC on Sunday — his first multigoal outing since joining the club last season. Bou is only the second player
in club history to submit a double in a playoff game, joining Charlie Davies,
who hit the mark twice in the club’s run to MLS Cup in 2014:

Player Date Result
Gustavo Bou 11/29/20 at ORL W, 3-1
Charlie Davies 11/29/14 vs. NY T, 2-2
Charlie Davies 11/01/14 at CLB W, 4-2

Bou, whose three goals are second most among players in the 2020 MLS
Cup Playoffs, can tie Davies for most goals scored by a Revs player in a
single postseason with one more tally. Dating back to his arrival in New
England in July 2019, the Revolution are 10-0-6 across all competitions
when Bou scores.

Previously, Bou boosted the Revolution past the Montreal Impact in the
MLS Cup Playoffs Play-In Round with an iconic 95th-minute goal. ‘La Pantera’ has exhibited a flair for the dramatic since he joined the Revs on a
club-record transfer fee from Liga MX side Club Tijuana. He has scored
seven times in the 85th minute or later, helping the team to a 5-0-2 record
in those games. Combining regular season and postseason play, Bou is
tied for the league lead in game-winning goals despite missing five games
due to injury:
