ATL UTD 2’s struggles continued on Saturday against the Ottawa Fury. A pair of first-half goals led the hosts to a 2-0 win at TD Place Stadium, sending Atlanta to its fourth straight loss and its seventh consecutive non-winning result.
Ottawa drew first blood in the 26th minute on a nice run along the left side by youngster Adonijah Reid. He then slipped it past a pair of Atlanta defenders in the box toward Carl Haworth - despite a heavy touch, it fell to Steevan Dos Santos who made it 1-0. Less than 10 minutes later, Haworth blasted a free kick past a diving Nico Caraux to make it 2-0 in the 35th.
