NEW DATE!  Revolution Night 2008!

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. - The Revolution announced today that its home match against FC Dallas - originally scheduled for Sunday, June 8 - has been moved to 6:30 p.m. on Friday, June 6 in order to create the special soccer doubleheader at Gillette Stadium...world soccer power Brazil will return to Foxborough when it meets the Venezuela National Team at Gillette Stadium at 8:30 p.m. on Friday, June 6, 2008. The June 6 match falls on an official FIFA match date and Brazil, the world's second-ranked team, is expected to call-up its stars such as Ronaldinho, Kaka and Robinho.
 
"We hosted one of the greatest-ever soccer events in New England when Brazil played at Gillette Stadium last year," Revolution General Manager Craig Tornberg said. "Brazil noted how much like home it felt to play here with such enthusiastic, passionate and adoring fans, so we're excited to be able to bring them back again. We anticipate another outstanding atmosphere for this game."

The game at Gillette Stadium on June 6 will be the 18th meeting between the two South American teams and the first-ever friendly between the squads. Brazil owns a 17-0 mark all-time against Venezuela, and the squads have not met since Oct. 12, 2005 when Brazil earned a 3-0 victory at home in Belem. The teams' last four meetings have all come during South American World Cup qualifying and the June 6 match will be Brazil's final preparation before its 2010 FIFA World Cup qualifying match against Paraguay on June 15.

This game marks Brazil's second appearance in Foxborough. Last year in 2007, Brazil defeated Mexico, 3-1, on Sept. 12 in front of a sell-out and record crowd of  67,684 at Gillette Stadium.
