New York City FC is on the road to take on Atlanta United for the first time since last year’s playoff run.
After defeating City, Atlanta United went on to raise the MLS Cup and were dubbed the 2018 MLS Champions.
Coming into this match, Dome Torrent is prepared for the challenge that Frank De Boer’s side poses.
Although he’s on a mission to earn his first win against the team since becoming City’s head coach, Dome has the utmost respect for the defending champions.
“They are a top, top team,” he told reporters. “They were the champions last year and now they are in good form, so we must recover well.
