If Johan Kappelhof ever sees an early-season trip to Atlanta on his team’s schedule again he should run away. Very fast. Back in 2017 it was his red card for DOGSO that led to the 4-0 mauling that was the Five Stripes’ first ever home win. This time he scored the winning goal in another mostly one-sided affair. You almost feel sorry for the guy.
Not.
That aside, the key number for this game was 18. That’s the number of shots Atlanta took during the game. By comparison the team averaged 9.5 shots per game last season, the lowest in team history, and averaged 15.
