Barco brace carries Atlanta United past New England Revolution

Atlanta United come out on top in New England against the Revolution after a 2-week break in Gillette Stadium.

The 5-Stripes return to action with a strong performance on the road; Captain Michael Parkhurst made his return to the line-up after suffering a minor injury last week, along with Brek Shea to strengthen Frank de Boer’s backline. The full Starting XI against the Revolution: Brad Guzan (GK), Brek Shea (LB), Leandro González-Pirez (CB), Miles Robinson (CB), Michael Parkhurst (RB), Jeff Larentowicz (MID), Eric Remedi (MID), Darlington Nagbe (MID), Tito Villalba (FWD), Josef Martinez (FWD), Julian Gressel (FWD).

The 5-Stripes came out firing from the initial whistle, applying pressure from the front three causing Revolution Head Coach Brad Friedel’s side trouble from the beginning.
