Julian Gressel, Miguel Almirón named to MLS Team of the Week

Atlanta United's dominant 3-0 win over the Colorado Rapids this weekend was a team performance from front to back, but three of Atlanta United players have been singled out for their performances in the victory. Miguel Almirón and Julian Gressel have each earned the honors of being named in the MLS Team of the Week, while Leandro González Pirez was named to the bench.

Gressel was the facilitator on the day, laying the opening goal on a platter for Miggy to finish from close range. His pinpoint passing wason display just minutes later, with another curling, low cross finding Tito Villalba for another close-range tap-in to seal the 3-0 victory.
