After managing to pick up an impressive and yet ultimately disappointing draw at Columbus Crew, Atlanta United is heading back south in search of a long awaited win to go with its improving performances of late. Like its first visit to Ohio and FC Cincy a few weeks ago, the Five Stripes had a superb attacking showing derailed by a pair of defensive mistakes against the Crew. Though performances such as the one over the weekend are no doubt encouraging, we’ve seen the same unhappy ending to take much solace in that. The arrival of Wayne Rooney’s league-worst DC United, however, will at least give Gonzalo Pineda’s men a chance to change up the scrip and tally its first win in four games.
