Atlanta United welcomed MLS’s eventual Supporter’s Shield champions to Mercedes-Benz Stadium Wednesday. Atlanta lost 2-1 thanks to two late Cincy goals in a span of six minutes. Here are my thoughts.
I’m not happy. But I’m not not happy.
Honestly, that wasn’t bad and I’m not upset like I have been watching Atlanta United at various times times throughout the year. Let’s remind ourselves that this is an Atlanta United team that has been mired in mediocrity (or worse) through the majority of this season. We all know what it feels like to leave a stadium not just disappointed in a loss, but feeling like you got scammed for having paid good money to be held captive in games where Atlanta is clearly outmatched and is not an entertaining watch.
