November 4, 2005
Since we first looked at the ten best games in Metro history, an update has to be made. For descriptions of the initial top ten, see the original article, parts one and two.

Needing a win for the playoff push, the MetroStars score early through Mike Magee, but New England equalizes. In the second half, Youri Djorkaeff and Amado Guevara tally to give Metro a two-goal lead only for the Revs to respond with three goals in 13 minutes. Just two minutes after the last Rev goal, Magee brings Metro level, and in the 86th minute, Djorkaeff also adds a second, scoring off an impossible acute angle.
