Tuesday night’s tilt had a bit of everything for MLS fans. World-class strikes, five yellow cards, a goalkeeper getting a red card, and a dramatic two-goal reversal at the end of the match. Minnesota was able to rally back from the dead thanks to timely goals from Christian Ramirez and Kevin Molino and by doing so they exacted revenge against an Atlanta squad that humiliated Minnesota in their home opener, 6-1, back in March.
Loons gaffer Adrian Heath decided to shake things up both tactically and personnel-wise as his squad lined up in a 4-1-2-3 formation with four lineup changes from the team’s defeat against the Dynamo on Saturday.
