Atlanta United’s five game winning streak and its streak without conceding both ended Sunday in a 1-0 loss to the New York Red Bulls. RBNY center back Tim Parker was sent off in the 35th minute when he pulled back Josef Martinez who looked to be in on a 1v1 against goalkeeper Luis Robles. In the end, it was a hopeful cross that Red Bull’s Tom Barlow nodded past Brad Guzan that made the difference.
Man of the Match: Dion Pereira
Yeah, I don’t know. Congratulations to Dion, who was an improvement over Julian Gressel who he replaced in the 65th minute.
