Atlanta United falls on last-minute goal from Real Salt Lake

Atlanta United battled back from a first-half deficit to even the score in Salt Lake City, but a stoppage-time goal from the hosts sends the red, black and gold home from their road trip on a disappointing loss.

Atlanta United’s Frank de Boer brought some fresh legs in to deal with the churn of a congested May, with Pity Martinez and Franco Escobar given the night off to rest. That meant Michael Parkhurst came in at right back with Dion Pereira getting his first start in Atlanta United colors. The full starting XI: Brad Guzan (GK), Brek Shea (LB), Leandro González Pirez (CB), Miles Robinson (CB), Michael Parkhurst (RB), Jeff Larentowicz (CM), Eric Remedi (CM), Darlington Nagbe (CAM), Dion Pereira (LW), Josef Martinez (ST), Julian Gressel (RW).
