Five Thoughts: How Atlanta handled Real Salt Lake
After Wednesday/Thursday's late night weirdness, the Five Stripes could have been forgiven for returning home and not getting the full 3 points against a more than serviceable Real Salt Lake side. Such did not turn out to be the case.
We have seen the future, and its name is George Bello.
Bello was handed his first career start, becoming (by 1 day) the 8th youngest MLS starter. He joins the likes of Alphonso Davies, Diego Fagundez and the inimitable Freddy Adu in the sub-17 starter club. None of the others did that in front of 72,000 fans though.
