Was this Atlanta United’s wake-up call in Major League Soccer?

The joy seen above was replicated early on in Atlanta United’s home return…but…

Everyone read the press leading up to the DC United visit to Bobby Dodd Stadium to take on the “other” United in Atlanta this past Sunday afternoon.

“DC United has been outscored 8-2 this season when they’re on the road…”

“Atlanta scores goals… DC United doesn’t…This should be three points… easy..”

Turns out, you just have “those days” sometimes. Days like Sunday happen for an expansion side. MLS experts and fans were reminded of the atypical nature of the league – there are no locks.
