Atlanta United took care of business on Tuesday with a convincing 4-2 win over the Columbus Crew in game two of the series.
The series will now go back to Columbus for the final and decisive game of the series to determine who advances to the Eastern Conference Semifinal against the winner of the series between Nashville SC and Orlando City SC.
After Thiago Almada returned from his suspension, Gonzalo Pineda went back to the typical 4-2-3-1 formation the team is used to. Lennon’s role as a free-roaming attacking fullback could potentially help Atlanta create overloads in the attacking and middle thirds.
