FOXBORO, Mass. (AP) – Preki scored two goals late in the second half to pull the Kansas City Wizards into a 2-2 overtime tie with the New England Revolution on Saturday.

Preki scored his fifth of the season in the 72nd minute when he converted a cross from Chris Klein, then converted a rebound of a Chris Brown header to tie the match in the 84th minute.

New England (4-2-3) took a 1-0 lead at the 44th minute when defender Jimmy Conrad inadvertently redirected a cross from Steve Ralston intended for Taylor Twellman into the Wizards’ net.

The Revolution extended their lead in the 63rd minute when Brian Kamler scored on a header after a cross from the right by Ralston.

Kansas City (3-1-5) had three chances to break the deadlock in the final four minutes of regulation.

Preki fired just over the net in the 86th, Brown missed on a partial breakaway in the 87th minute then had a short-range shot stopped by Revolution goalie Adin Brown a minute later.
