Atlanta United’s first casualty of its poor start to the season hit on Sunday, the Eastern Conference club firing Gabriel Heinze following a 1-0 home loss to the New England Revolution this weekend.
For Atlanta United, the firing of Gabriel Heinze represents a second head coaching change in the span of less than a calendar year for a club that won MLS Cup in 2018. Atlanta United is currently in tenth place in the Eastern Conference on a 2-3-7 record with 13 points.
