Our first day back for our beloved Atlanta United and Atlanta United 2 ended in two disappointing losses. After months of waiting and hoping, the joy of the Five Stripes returning to our viewing screens quickly disappeared with Florian Valot’s fourth minute goal in Orlando. 90 miles away in St. Petersburg, things were not starting too smoothly for Atlanta United 2 either. In the fifth minute Atlanta United 2 tried to play it out of the back against a high press and a dangerous pass from goalkeeper Ben Lundgaard to midfielder Amir Bashti was intercepted at the top of the box.
