It was expected for Atlanta United to come out firing, and that’s exactly what the Galaxy got. Atlanta had sustained pressure in the first half with the Galaxy looking absolutely at sea defensively – oodles of dangerous chances for Atlanta in the box coming from down the flanks. The Galaxy’s luck officially ran out after an Atlanta penalty was missed, three crossbars/posts were hit, and Atlanta sank their first goal after burning down the flanks once again. Feltscher and Cole were left in the dust repeatedly, and Steres and Skjelvik were traffic cones guarding shadows after lovely interchanges from Atlanta players at pace.
