Gonzalo Pineda’s first match at the helm of Atlanta United just didn’t go the way any of us wished it would have. Obviously, a 2-0 loss is not how any manager wants to start his reign over a club, especially a high-profile one, but the winning streak had to come to an end at some point. Atlanta United just couldn’t break through a stout Nashville defense on Saturday night, but Gonzo was quick to shoulder the responsibility (literally a quote from below). He praised the passion (Josef, anyone?) and the attacking mindset (Araujo, anyone?) of the players, while pointing out technical issues that he wants to address in training.
