Despite our delirious thrill watching Atlanta United win the weirdest game any of us have ever seen, Atlanta United manager Tata Martino wasn’t feeling quite as joyous.
“If we’d played like that against one of the top teams in the league, we would’ve lost by a few goals,” Martino told reporters Friday ahead of Atlanta United’s 7 p.m. kickoff agains Real Salt Lake.
It’s a stark reminder that, despite the win and the three points that go along with it, it wasn’t a great day for Atlanta. The result was great, of course.
