Ezequiel Barco determined to bring a championship to Atlanta

Whether it was the videos of the raving Atlanta faithful, the breathtaking atmosphere in Mercedes-Benz Stadium or the ATL UTD staff that greeted him in Buenos Aires, Ezequiel Barco was immediately sold on taking the next step of his career in Atlanta.

But the 18-year-old knows that videos and images can only offer so much and that nothing can compare to the real thing. So while he spends his first few weeks at preseason in Florida, he’s itching to see the marvel that awaits him in his new city – particularly the sea of 70,000+ fans on March 11th at the home opener.
