Two ATL UTD Academy prospects help Honduras advance to FIFA U-17 World Cup knockout stage

The young American trio of Andrew Carleton, Chris Goslin and Justin Garces aren’t the only Atlanta United prospects representing their nations at the ongoing FIFA U-17 World Cup in India. Two other members of the ATL UTD Academy, Alessandro Castro and Alexander Bahr, have been sporting the blue and white national colors of Honduras as they advanced from group stage and qualified for the Round of 16.

Both Castro and Bahr received a start each in the first two group stage matches against Japan and New Caledonia, with Castro also appearing as a sub in their third contest against France.
