Saër Sène made one of Gillette Stadium’s most spectacular debuts, scoring 28 seconds into his first match. The goal gave the Revolution a 1-0 win over the Portland Timbers on March 24, 2012, their first victory under coach Jay Heaps. Sène totaled 11 goals in 23 games during the 2012 season, and finished with 17 goals in three Revolution seasons, his career cut short by injury.
Sène, whose father, Oumar, played for Paris Saint-Germain, was with Bayern Munich II from 2009-12. Among his coaches was Hermann Gerland, who coached Joe-Max Moore at FC Nurnberg in the ‘90s and is now first team assistant.
