Ghanaian forward Emmanuel Boateng's early strike for New England Revolution proved insufficient as they endured a heavy 5-1 defeat against Columbus Crew in a one-sided Major League Soccer match on Saturday night.

Boateng, 30, opened the scoring in the ninth minute with a precise shot, intercepting a pass near the top left of the box to beat Crew goalkeeper Patrick Schulte. Despite Boateng's effort, New England struggled to maintain momentum throughout the game.

Columbus Crew responded swiftly, with Cucho Hernández equalizing shortly after Boateng's goal. The match swung decisively in Crew's favor late in the first half when Max Arfsten scored from the top of the box in the 42nd minute, followed by a stoppage-time goal from Rossi, giving them a commanding 3-1 lead at halftime.

The second half saw no relief for New England as Rudy Camacho and Steven Moreira added two more goals for Columbus, securing their sixth win in seven matches.

Boateng was substituted off in the 70th minute, while his compatriot Yaw Yeboah joined the action for Crew in the 80th minute.

Despite Boateng's early contribution, New England's four-match winning streak came to an abrupt end against the dominant Columbus side.
