Atlanta United enjoyed Sunday’s win against D.C. United, but are moving their focus toward the upcoming weekend and a Vancouver Whitecaps team that won both of its opening two matches. The focus however isn’t directed at a particular player or even opposing tactics. It’s their height, best summed up by Greg Garza.
“It’s crazy, Vancouver’s height. We’re all little guys. We don’t have that much height. I think Brad(Guzan) is the only one that actually has some height.”
This presents an obvious issue for an Atlanta team that already conceded two set piece goals in their 3-1 loss to Vancouver last season.
