Atlanta United head coach Gabriel Heinze blamed his team’s midweek loss at New York City FC on fatigue. While they may be tired, Heinze’s excuse misses the point for a team that has struggled for well over two months.
Atlanta United lost 1-0 at New York City FC on Wednesday, not a terrible result but certainly another discouraging performance.
What is terrible is their recent form.
