Atlanta United was inches away from a dramatic comeback win against Orlando City Sunday at Mercedes-Benz Stadium, but an incredible save from Pedro Gallese and his post ultimately denied Atlanta United the full three points in a 1-1 draw.
The first half was a total bore. Both teams combined for 5 total shot attempts and a combined 0.37 xG. But in the second half, Atlanta United turned on the afterburners and sent wave after wave of attacks at Orlando after Thiago Almada and Josef Martinez entered the game.
Almada delivered the game-tying assist to Juanjo Purata for his first goal in an Atlanta United shirt.
