At last, Atlanta United 2 will begin their regular season on Saturday when they take on New York Red Bulls II at Coolray Field in Lawrenceville. With no first team game on the weekend, thousands of fans are expected to come watch some of the club’s younger back-ups and reserve team talents try to take down one of the most successful clubs in USL’s modern era.
Throughout the preseason, both ATL UTD 2 head coach Scott Donnelly and technical director Carlos Bocanegra have repeated many of the same things when asked how this new club will be used.
