Mikey Ambrose makes debut for the Five Stripes
In last week’s game (which feels like a long time ago) defender Mikey Ambrose made his debut for the Five Stripes as he came on as a substitute in the 73rd minute for Marietta native Mark Bloom.
Ambrose completed eight of 10 passes on the left side of the field during his time on the pitch.
“It felt amazing,” Ambrose said. “It was a very intense game and I was very grateful to the coaches and all the staff for trusting me in that game and it was a lot of fun.”
United acquired Ambrose with the seventh overall pick in the 2016 Expansion Draft. He spent last season with Orlando City SC, where he started in four of his appearances for the club.
