Anatomy of a Goal: an Atlanta handball leads to the game winner

Welcome to the Anatomy of a Goal, where each week we dissect one goal (or near goal) from Columbus Crew SC‘s previous match.

For match 25 of the 2018 MLS Season, we take a look at Jeff Larentowicz’s handball . . . er . . . Hector Villalba’s 76th minute goal that put Atlanta United up 2-1 as part of their 3-1 win over Crew SC on Sunday.

Columbus has never beaten the Five Stripes. Sure there was the penalty kick win in the playoffs, but the Black & Gold have yet to come away with a regular season win against Atlanta.
