It’s probably been said dozens of times since last night, but I feel a little cheated in not getting the offensive display from Atlanta United that I’ve grown accustomed to over the past two years. Don’t get me wrong, I’m grateful that the Vancouver Whitecaps had a semblance of a chance in this one. Technically speaking, that is, as that’s what a one-goal deficit earns you by default.
And I’ll take a puncher’s chance every day of the week, even if it solely comes from stout defending surrounded by a flurry of arguably miraculous saves.
