Atlanta United 2 defeated Indy Eleven 2-1 Wednesday night at Fifth Third Bank Stadium. George Campbell scored his first professional goal while Andrew Carleton netted the game-winner and ATL UTD 2 extended its unbeaten streak to four matches.
Atlanta opened the scoring in the 24th minute from a corner kick. Mikey Ambrose delivered an out-swinging ball to the center of the box where Campbell rose high above the Indy defense and powerfully headed the ball into the bottom left corner. Eleven goalkeeper Evan Newton was able to get a hand to it, but it ultimately bounced through for the 18-year-old’s first professional score.
