ATLUTD Weekly - 197 - Blow out vs Portland, Prepping for the Crew

Atlanta United FC Weekly - a Home Before Dark Atlanta United Soccer and MLS Podcast

Kevin, Dan and Tim are back to talk about Atlanta United FC's drubbing of Western Conference opponent Portland Timbers during Major League Soccer Matchday 4, a rematch from the 2018 MLS Cup. A match that was a resounding win for Atlanta and a much needed springboard for the club. With goals scored by all 3 designated players, Almada, Araujo, and Giakomakis get on the scorecard as the 5-Stripes climb atop the Eastern Conference standings. This win brings with it the first of the season that left no doubt about Atlanta’s capabilities on both sides of the ball. Unfortunately the defense was unable to maintain the clean-sheet. One of the only criticisms by coach Gonzalo Pineda. One thing is certain, that if the team can continue on this pace, the future looks bright for ATLUTD. However, next week brings international duty call-ups for much of the roster. Can Atlanta maintain status quo without their full force on the pitch?
